So, a lot has happened this week. It was so great specially being my last week. Well, the day after my last e mail I had a feeling I was going to speak in sacrament meeting, and they don’t announce
who is speaking until after the sacrament is passed. Then you go give your talk 10 seconds after, so Sunday I hurried and wrote a talk for about 5 min, if that. And it had to be in Spanish so that was a little
crazy. It was on an apostasy which I had no clue how to give a talk about it. So I just gave an example about it, ha. It was 5 min long. I did have to read it in Spanish and went really slow. I’m sure all the
Latina and Latinos were laughing inside, cuz I’m not sure if I translated everything correctly, ha ha. Tuesday was so fun. We went proselyting for a few hours just close by the MTC. The first door we
knocked on we gave a short message on the resurrection and she was interested and wanted us to come back. We invited her to come to church but her family was coming in town. She was catholic but still wanted to hear more. The next person we talked to was a guy named Adrian. He was so sweet. He was on break from working a vet. Hospital. He was sitting on the grass with another friend we started talking about the book of Morman, since he saw it in our hands. Then he kept asking us questions. Hermana Francisco started talking to a guard and Hector since they didn’t know anything about the book. Well, Hector kept talking to me, and it was so weird, what do I know? I could understand everything he was saying for the most part. I would never think of talking to someone in Spanish without my companion translating. It was for more than 30 min, it made me feel so great. He told me about how the missionaries are teaching him right now and that he has been reading the book of Mormon. Then he shared his testimony with me about how he feels when he reads it. He put his news
paper down and said he wanted to read the book of Mormon, ha, so I gave him one. We had a couple of copies we were giving away as we proselyted. He was so sweet and I bore my testimony and how I felt and he asked me if I would be able to come back tomorrow to talk with him. But I couldn’t because our schedule is different and its really for practice.

I finished reading the book Morman this week and I’m so happy. I’ll read it again and I’m starting
it in Spanish now. We got about 7 referrals the rest of the day so that was success for us . I can’t wait to get to panama. I leave on Monday in the afternoon. I have no clue when our flight is. They don’t
tell us till Monday. But when I get to panama they let me email. I got the dear elder letters from mom and Shantelle. Thank you so much I love getting letters, and it’s crazy how everyone is getting married.
Last Thursday it was our last time in the temple in Guatemala. I will see ya soon and hope to here from everyone. Jacob I hope you’re doing better and Fernanda. Do have any plans what you’re doing or moving or anything exciting i guess being home right ? love you both so much.
