Week 39

Hola!  There are 6 sister leaders in the mission, so it's not a big deal ahah. I am over the 3 areas most south in our mission. I hope I live up to what the standard is. It's really hard sometimes. These weeks we have been trying so hard but we have had to decide to leave some of our investigators because they just aren't progressing. But you know that I have done all I could.  I taught the doctrine with clarity and my hands are clean. I'm just sad. But it's ok! We are promised that through the Holy Ghost we will be given what to say in hostile venues and won't be confounded before men. And that is so true. We have people yelling at us and I am just calm and ask questions that are so inspired and confound them, pues! 

So Alexis was baptized! He almost wasn't because the day of his service everything was going wrong and I found him in the baptismal font feeling a little agitated.  He was upset about some negativity from others and a kid that was teasing him. We talked about canceling  the baptism but I'm glad we didn't because after he was baptized we all just felt that it was the right decision. He gave the cutest testimony afterward and all my stress finally melted away. Baptisms sometimes stress me out because is so much opposition at times.  Almost like the devil is try to stop it because he knows that the baptism is what God wants. 

They also play this game here called carnivales, like games with water balloons and water and they love to play with us....just without our permission. I got pretty irritated this week when we got soaked again. Really I had to repent for my madness. This week there was also a naked crazy lady in the street. And ALOT of drunk people harassing us as usual. I LOVE NASCA. But really I do!

I loved reading Adams letter I was laughing out loud! I am so happy for him! I love you all!
