Only the True Hipsters Live in Potosi


MAMASITA! FAMILIA!

How are you all???? I am doing great! This week has been really good! REALLY COLD! But really good! It SNOWED YESTERDAY! Yup. We were proselyting in the snow. I never thought that I would be proselyting in the snow in SOUTH AMERICA! It is crazy. But everyone here says that after it snows, then it starts to get warm. So hopefully this week is warmer!

Enough about the weather.... WE HAD A BAPTISM! Yup. Her name is Ruth Ilafaya, and she is truly incredible. Her baptism was very special, and I will never forget the testimony that she bore. She will always be one of my favorite people.

We actually didn’t think her baptism would happen..... she was 2 hours late! She had to travel that day, and had troubles on the way back in her bus. It was bad... everyone was waiting in the chapel. But they were all very nice, and waited for her to arrive. Our ward is so great. They are all very supportive. Any how, she showed up and all went smoothly after that.  It was a great day. I wish you could meet Ruth. She has such a strong testimony, and we only met her like 4 weeks ago!

What else is new?

Oh,Yesterday.  I ate so much that I literally wanted to throw up. And you all know me, I HATE THROWING UP. But when we eat with the members, they always give us literally MOUNTAINS OF FOOD. It was a mountain of pasta. I am still recovering today. Hahahahaha

Hm..... Oh. I started reading Jesus the Christ today! Man, that book is way cool. I hope you all have read it. It is truly amazing, and i am so looking forward to learning more about my Savior.

I also have been studying a lot about putting on the whole armour of God for one of my investigators.  It is in Ephesians 6. You should all read it again, and really think about how you can all have more power to combat the powers of Satan when you have these things in your life. It helped me to teach just how important prayer, the scriptures, and faith are in our lives. I was especially thinking of Kayla as I read these verses.

How are all of you? I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT EMI IS IN KINDERGARTEN! That blows my whole mind. How does she like it???

STEPHANIE FERWEDA! There is an elder in my zone who knows who Krispy Kreme is. We have been quoting it ever since. It makes me miss you and Lysje. YOU ARE THE BADDEST OF THEM ALL!

Kayla. How is school? Is it pwning you? Are you going to seminary?

Mom. Are you sad that Emi is in school? Or is it nice to have the mornings to work?

Dad. What classes are you teaching this year? How is the team doing?

COACH KYLE! How is the coaching going? How are your papers? Keith and Rhiannon! What's up? How is BYU? When do classes start again?

I am going to send this one off, and read yours! I love you all!
