10/1/12    “A Crazy Baptism But, Wonderful”.

Dear Family,

I am doing really well, just way tired. We played basketball and fut. So, I am worn out. We had some bautismos.  Things are a lot better with my new companion. He is really cool and even though he only has 8 months out he has taught me a lot of stuff. Tell Connor to keep at it.  Tell him to do things that people don’t do. We were talking about that today and we said: We need to be extraordinary we have to do extraordinary things. Connor is amazing and I know he can do more.

Everyone around here can’t stop touching my hair. They think it is cool. Ha ha 

 So, I took a picture of what they did to my hair..

The mish...

This week was the first week of the changes with my new companion, Elder Tlatelpa. I thought that it was going to be a little harder with him but, He really loves to learn and he helps me with what he can. He is really cool and keeps reminding me that we have to keep doing better and better things to have more and more success. But I had to learn really quick how to teach him everything. I had to learn by myself. But, now I have someone that wants to learn and he asks me a ton of questions. It’s awesome. I love it!  This week was a week of hard work. I got sick with a bug that hit the whole mission but, I went to the Doctor and I was healed in one day.... Also they have some strong pills here. Ha ha. I feel a ton better after that we found 10 new people to teach. It was really awesome because, all we did was work hard instead of fighting like my other comp did. He just complained and complained but now I have a companion with a lot more of humlidad(humility).  It has been awesome.  We had 2 bautismos(baptisms). Their parents had asked us to teach them so, we did and they got baptized. It was so hard the girl did not want to get bautizada. She just froze in the pila and didn’t want to bend her legs so, after 10 minutes of talking it over and telling her that I would come get in the water (because her dad was baptizing her.) Her dad grabbed her and boom in the water. haha It was  so weird but, I guess she had done this once before. But this time it worked. It’s a milagro(miracle) that she got bautizada(baptized).  I know its short, but there isn’t much more to my life than you already know. I hope you have a great week. Tell Connor to keep his head up and to keep praying and working hard. Also he better be reading the Libro de Mormon.You know its soooo cool. Ha ha. Have a great week ,I love you all….
