Hola Friends and Family!!
Well this letter will be a little short. I´m exhausted.
We had a great week. Yesterday was Zone Conference. It was hands down amazing. We talked a lot about the Prophet´s 5/5/5 plan for the wards and finding people. Then we had practices and testimony meeting and then finished singing the sweet mission song. Can´t complain, it was amazing. Easter was beautiful. It is my favorite Holiday for sure! We went to church and then had a sweet dinner with the elders and with the Stake President and his family!
Small miracle this week ( not about the work). Pte Avila bought us a basic WASHING MACHINE!!! You don´t even want to know the color of the water that came out when I washed my clothes. It is a basic one, which means you have to heat the water and put it in and then drain it out when you are done but hey, it isn't hand scrubbing! You have to rinse by hand but it still cuts the time in half. I think if you would have seen four sister missionaries screaming about a washing machine you would think we were crazy, but gosh we felt soooo happy haha! So for 14 months of my mission my clothes were hand washed. They get a break the next 4 haha!
Today for Pday we went on a sweet hike to waterfalls called ¨Salta de la Moneda¨. It was long the steep but way worth it. I went with Hna John because our companions had already gone and didn't want to go again. We have such a sweet zone right now with the Elders and Hermanas, it was a BLAST!!
Saturday we have a baptism!! Tomas! He is 12 years old, super amazing little guy! His brother was the only member in the family and got baptized and last month went on a mission. This stirred Tomas to find out more and now he too wants to be baptized. It will be a sweet surprise for his brother serving in Buenos Aires. He has gone to church a ton and reads very diligently the Book of Mormon. He is different than any other 12 yr old I have met, very special kid. He just wants to be good, follow what God wants and be very respectable and clean. Very hard to find this these days! But still, this Saturday he will enter the waters of baptism!! WOHOOO
Well, that is it for now. Hope you all have an amazing week cause here in San Luis we sure will! Onward Christian soldiers!!
Pictures;
Salta de la Moneda, Hna Shapiama popping my back since she is so little (Peruvian), and the last one is all the basketball players in the zone (which are a lot) doing a dance move that an NBA player ¨John Wall¨does. We just happen to have a Hna JOHn and an Elder Wahl for such we took the pic!
