I´m sorry to hear about Mandi’s
accident. All this weekend I had been feeling something in my tummy that made
me keep thinking about my family. I guess I now know what it was for. But I’m
really glad to hear that Amanda is doing better.
This week has been pretty different
with the whole pants mix in. We started wearing our pants on Friday and to be
honest I have mixed feelings. People (men) don´t stare at us quite as much...but
then some people almost haven’t believed us when we told them that we are
missionaries. Then it’s a bit hotter in the pants but the sun’s not burning my
skin and I’m more protected from mosquitos. Hna Balboa and I got a little
carried away Friday night and when we got home Chola Hermana Hauck came out
(Chola = gangster). *See photos
As far as investigators go...Reyna is
still really interested but her family problems are getting in the way of her
being able to go to church with us. Tomas is doing well and fasted with us this
weekend but for some reason didn’t show up to church. We’re going to talk to
him after writing letters today. On a happier note our 11-year-old investigator
named Elisabeth, who is the daughter of less actives, came to church with her
parents this Sunday!
I´m not sure if I’ve told you about
Guadelupe Ruiz yet. He´s a less active we started teaching about a month ago.
We were working with a member one day and all of out appointments fell through
so we asked her if she could think of a less active near by that we could
visit. She thought for a minute then told us about a man who had been inactive
for 20 years or so. His daughter had served a mission about 6 years ago but
died in a traffic accident 4 years ago. When we got to his house he opened the
door to us, blinked, then said immediately ¨pasenle¨ or come in. After talking
to him for a bit he told us that just a few days before he had prayed to
Heavenly Father for a second chance in the Gospel. Since this visit he has been
reading his scriptures daily, coming to church meetings, activities and the
sacrament and will officially be reactivated this weekend! How special for me
to be able to play a part in the reactivation of this hermano!
Have a good week!!!!
Con amor,
Hermana Hauck
