Hola Flamilia,
Estoy feliz como una lombris.
This week has been really great. Every week is great.
We've
gone from 2 to 7 progressing investigators in a week (They're
progressing when they're reading the BOM or going to church and other
ward activities). We're working hard and trying to really transform
ourselves into
polished tools for the Lord's hands. (It's easy to
be just a regular tool :)) The mission is full of ''up's'' and
''down's.'' Por ejemplo, the family of our recent convert, Freddy, is
starting to progress again and read the Book of Mormon! They committed
to coming to church! But our precious investigating family, la familia
Garmendia, isn't answering their phone or recieving us. It's actually
really worrisome. Will you please pray for them? Today we're starting a
fast.
This Wednesday we had changes! It was SO fun to see
Elder Hamilton! I wanted to hug him so bad! He's grown at least 10
inches since the last time I saw him. I wish I could send a picture, but
this computer is really bad.
President changed the way we do
changes! Instead of knowing beforehand, all we know is whether or not we
have changes. So now everyone comes to the meeting without knowing
their new comp or new area and it's like a big ''harry potter sorting
hat'' kind of experience! It was really fun. The highlights are that
Jake Hamilton went to the South near the coast and our amazing AP is now
with another exAP and they're opening an area on an island called
Ampala!!! They're called to start up a branch! Basically the new
''Koli-pokis'' (Think Other Side of Heaven).
Yesterday, we
ended up spending a few hours in the ER with an Elder who is really
sick with Dengue. He'll be hospitalized for up to 4 days. It's always
nice to help out.
This morning, we woke up to a flooded
apartment. We have a problem with our pipes. So that took up a lot of
our Pday! But it's all cleaned up!
Speaking of our bathroom, a
guy came a while ago and fixed our shower, so I now have had hot water
in the shower for officially 1/15 months of my mission! Woot Woot!!
Okay, I love you! Special shoutout to Grandma for her 75th birthday!!!! I love her SOOOOO much!
Love,
Hermana Flynn
