Que masss.
I am going to share
the exciting news first!!!! PABLA got baptized yesterday! it was the
best. we got super worried because all last week we couldnt find her.
then after the trial of our faith, we taught her every day this week and she
got baptized yesterday. Its pretty amazing. we taught her the
commandments and i realized how humble she is, and has lots of faith. we
taught her about tithing, fasting, and everything...shes so awesome! she
told us that her family was asking,"are you sure you want to be
baptized?" questions like that. she told us,"me siento bien. me
siento paz y tranquilidad." or to translate, i feel good. i feel peace and
tranquility. (losing my english ability of spelling...) anyways. it was
truly a miracle in the branch yesterday. not only were lots of people in
sacrament meeting, but lots of people stayed afterwards for the baptism, almost
all the members! such changes we are seeing here in salamanca! and
pabla has so many friends in the branch. we were so happy!
ive realized that i
have a deep love for goat cheese, or here,"queso de cabra." ah! i
dont know why i like it so much..hahaha. hermana martinez and i love
tortillas and cheese here. i feel like im in college.
illapel-the main city
in our zone, totally reminds me of pocatello from a distance. but the houses
are completely different. lol.
My companion is
suuuppper argentinan and it is so awesome! she speaks with such a strong
accent, its now attatching to me. for those who dont know the differences
in accents. spanish, when one says,"ella," its like
"eya." hermana martinez and i say, "esha."
elder araya got
transfered!!! the costa rican. he is the best. we got a new elder from
utah here in salamanca. so now im not in a district of only latinos. this
will take some getting used to! lol.
i freaking love my
companion! she is probably one of my favorites. she is only 3
months older than me and we both have big desires to study cool stuff and
everything. shes totally one of my best friends!!! we have so much
fun.
well thats pretty much
it. love you all!
