Hey Mom and Dad!
Like I said this week was super interesting! I stayed in the area, and so
did Elder Guzman, and we received Elder Heileson, who was one of the District
leader in our zone, he is my new Zone Leader comp. and He received a new kid
from the states, Elder Black from Montana! I'm pretty dang happy that these guys
are my comps! Elder Guzman stayed to finish his training with me, and Elder
Black is right out of the MTC :) Super fun! :) Elder Heileson is one of the only
other Americans in the mission that is a Ute fan, so that has been fun to talk
about, and he used to live in Utah, but now he lives in Arizona! He has 16
months in the mission! He is awesome, I'm learning a lot from him!
So we worked like normal Tuesday, Wednesday were changes, and Thursday! On
Friday we went over to Freddy and Mayras house to visit them, and they tell us
as we walk in, hey come check out what we bought for the birthday party
tomorrow! so we go walking around the back of the house, and they had bought a
LAMB! haha awesome! so we took some pictures with it, then out of no where
the two brothers of Mayra show up with knives and sheets of metal! So we decided
if we are here, might as well get some action shoots of the killing :)
hahaha it was pretty barbaric how they killed it hahah They cut the
throat and they cut it apart! hahaha at the end of it, we took some pictures of
the head! Once in a life time experience there!
On Saturday they had told us to come at 5:00pm to get something to eat
before the party started, so we came, ate some the of the lamb, which was on kabobs and left fat and happy! The birthday party was their daughter,
Dulces, Quinceñera! I took a few pictures with Mayras brother, Norlan who is a
super awesome guy! he helps us out a lot! around 5:30 we were out of there
because the music started, and people started to show up, we came back around
8:30 to get a piece of cake, and we headed home!
On Saturday we were going to baptize a kid named Eliezer, however we showed
up and we reviewed all of the baptism questions with his mom their so she could
see that he was truly ready, but he confessed that in the morning he drank
coffee! GYARRRRRRR which is a week of repentance, so we are planning the baptism
for next Saturday! Hopefully everything goes as planned! we could get another
Sister we are teaching, who is in a city super far from Managua, but if she
comes back, we can baptize her this week! :) Lots of Prayers and Fasting!
:)
Well I hope you guys have a great week! :) I love you guys! :)
