Welp. My companion went home. I'm with a mini missionary. Her name is
Flor. A youth who is planning on going on a mission and so we are just
doing divisions for 10 days until transfers. She's cool. She's Tica, and
it's kinda hard not having like a real missionary because we don't teach
like a companionship because she's not use to it, and she's kinda shy
still, but she's great. It's like I'm training again, but not really.
hahaha thank goodness for that.

Well we didn't end up having our baptism this week because the man was
drinkin coffee. Seriously, THEY ARE ADDICTED HERE!!! but we are
praying and fasting for this Saturday...

Ok. So not gonna lie. This area is soooo dead... they aren't ready for
missionaries here. The members especially. They act like we don't even
exist. I hope that this was just a trial run to see if they were
ready, but I think the area will get closed again. Because honestly,
the people don't recive us in their houses and even people on the
street when we just wanna talk to them, just shut us down. It's so
weird being in an area like this. I've never had this happen. But
seriously, it's been tough, and even Flor is super discouraged, she
thought it was gonna be a good time! HAHAHAHAHAH. welcome to the
mission, its TOUGH., But i love it.

Honestly, I don't know what else to say, I'm just not tryiing to get
down and discouraged because satan works even harder. D&C 29:39.
Hebrews 6:10
Here is the start of 6 weeks. I'll be home sooon. can't believe it!
I love this work, and this gospel, this has honestly changed my life.
