Week 9 Industrial

 That should be exciting. I finally got the letter from pops that he sent three weeks after i left on my mish haha. ( Thanks for all the new articles about Ohio State to remind me of their flop ). Mother thank you so much for the ear plugs in my package. Every single missionary snores like a tuba. They are a life saver! As you can see in the picture our water is still very gross. No idea why. That bucket was my shower :) On Wed. we had the baptism of Lety. Like a half hour before she started having these crazy asthma attacks. very scary but we gave her a blessing and they went away. She has a powerful testimony and i think will be a strong member throughout her life :) We ran into the natives that live here. That was interesting since they speak a different kind of spanish. I didn't understand a thing haha. They are just these tribes that live in these little woodlands or something like that.. I dont really know? I think here i speak half spanish, and half sign language trying to explain stuff to my comp and others... The joys of Spanish. This week i really learned the power of prayer. We went to teach Margarita and Osvaldo one night, ( My first two baptisms ) and Margarita told us that Osvaldo wants nothing to do with the church anymore. I was absolutely devastated. We tried to talk to him and meet with him alllll week but he just wouldn't hear it. There were lots and lots of prayers for him this past week. Prayers that his heart would soften and he would talk to us. Then the crazy thing is that he just showed up on Sunday and wanted to talk to us. I guess he fell of the Wagon and got involved in some rough things and that he just felt guilty but that he wanted to change. I know our prayers were answered. It was a pretty awesome experience! Keep making good choices this week! I'm doing good down here! Melting like always! Love and miss you all! Till next week!!! 

Love
