Hey Mom and Dad!
How are you guys doing?? Sorry I am writing kind of late, we
just got back from a trip to Managua !
I have to get my residency here renewed, so I have been gone all day pulling
out police records and stuff, but Just another day here in Nicaragua ! :)
haha I loved your letters! How cool that you guys got to go and see the Utes! I
loved that picture of Ash! :) Hey I just wanted to let you know that I am
having a little Nica make me a new suit because my suit pants tots torn last
week, and I figured I would take advantage of a sweet hand tailored suit for
cheap haha :) I had to pay like 20 bucks for the fabric, and then another 40
bucks for the Work, but I just saw the half made suit jacket tonight, and it
looks awesome! I will send you some picks next week of the new suit! :)
Your dinner banquet sounded awesome as well! I cant wait to
play with these pooches! They seem like a hand full! :) Youth Conference sounds
super awesome as well!!! :) Boating and all the other fun stuff! Awesome! :) I am
sure laubs had a blast!
Well I have great news! WE FINALLY BAPTIZED!!!!!! :)
DENIS!!!! :) It was so awesome! The night before his baptism he said the prayer
and it was the most humble prayer I had ever heard in my entire life. The
spirit was so strong and we were all teary-eyed as we left! We are so happy for
that guy! I love that brother so much! Its crazy how much a missionary falls in
love with the investigators and how much of the Love of Christ you feel for
these people! So they got married on Friday afternoon, and that was super
awesome! Him and his wife Araceli were so happy! And then they gave us this
super nummy bread with chicken meat baked on the inside! We found the bread
shop that sells that bread now, so we hit that up almost every morning! super
nummy, and they also gave us homemade orange juice! They are so sweet! Then on
Saturday was his baptism! And it was awesome, after he stood up in the water he
looked at everyone and gave everyone the two thumbs up! :) Super awesome! He is
one of my favorite converts of all time! :) I have a bunch of Photos on drop
box! After the baptism we went and celebrated as a companionship and bought
some spicy chicken wings from a place near the church! Elder Sanchez bought a
mini pizza! super funny!
This Weekend we are going to baptize and Marry another
family! They are both preparing to be baptized, but the wife will be baptized
later on in July, but the Husband, Humberto will be baptized this weekend! We
are going to go to his house this weekend and talk with them to make sure they
are all cool about the baptism! Humberto had a total change of heart this past
week because he did not go to church, and was still struggling with Coffee, so
we did like a big "show" to help him understand that we were
disappointed as well as the Lord, in the decisions he had been taking lately,
and from Monday and on he has been obedient with not drinking Coffee! He is
awesome! :) We put a baptism date with he Companion, Carmen yesterday night,
and she accepted it without a single problem! It was super awesome! She is
super pumped for marriage and baptism!
To answer your questions mom about the area, we are still
working in Las Villas in Jinotepe, but we have just added onto our area. If you
go onto Google Maps, and look at the city of Jinotepe , if you look to the north western
corner, you will see a little blip in the middle of a bunch of green that says
Dolores. That is our area now too! :) we are teaching like 6 cool people from
their that are preparing for baptism in July as well! It is a way cool family
that has already listened to missionaries and the mom and the older brother
have been baptized! we are teaching the other four daughters that are super
awesome and are very interested in the church!
Well I hope I could answer all of your questions! The zone
is doing great! right now we have 10 baptisms for the month of June, and we
should end with around 20!
I love you guys! Thanks for all of your support!
Elder Naisbitt
