15 May 2017




So I’m not going to lie this is going to be a short email. Because it I didn’t write at all this week... But to be honest the area hasn’t changed. We had to drop a lot of people this week. We are pretty much hitting the rest button on everything this week. We are going to go and work with this one girl that read the book of Mormon in a week. We didn’t contact her, her name was in the area book. But we couldn’t understand why she wasn’t baptized. So we found out that she needs to get married. And her husband didn’t want anything to do with the church or marriage the last time the missionary’s talked to them. So we talked to here and the husband wants to get married now I guess. So we are going to work with them both and see what we can do. We had our member bring some people to church the other day. And they are awesome. The only thing is they live 45 mins away. They live in our area but they just live super far away. But we are going to talk with the branch president and see if we can’t go with him in his car one day because there are no buses that go out there. The area here is really good for teaching people. They just have a hard time coming to church and reading. And basically everything else as well haha but if they were all go with stuff like that our lives would be way too easy and missionary work isn’t supposed to be easy haha.

So the power goes out here lot, and we have a rule that if the power is out at night when we are out working we have to go back to the house because it’s not safe. So this happened to us the other day. We went and bought some candles and some food for the house and all that. We came home and just as we put the key into the door the power came back on... It’s good because we got to work again. We were really scared for the skype call with the power always going out. We were praying so hard that the power would stay on all night. And we had power the whole night as well! Oh I almost forgot, when we were skyping the room we were in was filling up with water... It rains cats and dogs all the time here. I hate the rain as much as I hate the snow back home. Haha 

 Well I to be honest that was our week here in Pueblo Nuevo. I’m sorry that it’s so short but at least it’s something haha. I will write more for you all next week I promise haha anyways thanks for all the love and support that you all send my way! 


Talk to you all next week! Love you!
