this week was fun. we went to san juan del sur, or playa gigante to be more 

specific. we had lots of fun, and even made pancakes the morning of to be 

all ready to go. i loved it though. i found that one of the sisters who came 

with me here to nicaragua from the states, had to go home for some health 

problems. if you could get hermana cornell in your prayers, i am sure that 

would mean a lot. i got to chat it up with the sisters that i haven´t seen in a 

while, and take a three generation picture with my daughter. the last one that

 i will be able to take because mom dies on thursday.... which means that i am

 just one change closer to my own flight home. what is that!?

my companion´s spanish moving along. just keep praying. it´s hard to do 

sometimes.

a big success though. she actually said phrases without looking at me or 

doubting what she said. it was a little miracle. #proudmommymoment

a tender mercy. we were able to get a fecha and an baptismal interview put 

together for an eternal investigator. it is something that could still use a lot of 

prayers, but please. just keep yamil in your prayers as well.

a favorite scripture. john 16:33
::In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome 

the world.::

i loved working with our zone leaders and having fun with our whole mission on 

wednesday. it´s great to have a personal connection with our elders and sisters in 

our district so that we can all be helpful one to another. but this picture turned out 

pretty sick of my favorite person, hermana naumu.

goals: have a baptism. complete with the normas. work with the members.

pretty much normal.

lots of love from sunny nicaragua.
