Haley's impetigo got much worse (went inside her mouth and other parts of her body) but is hopefully gone by now. Thanks so much for your prayers!
We had a FHE with the Family Perez, and they really wanted me to do their makeup, haha!
Christin wearing my sunglasses telling me if I tried to take them of, she would fight me hahaha
Our first Noche de Grupo en this barrio

Hola Familia!
This week we had a lot of success again! It seems like last change we were working really hard to find the people who were ready, but now we are finally progressing with these people. It takes a loooot of patience to be a missionary, but what's amazing is how eventually we can look forth see the fruits of our success (Alma 26:31) and we get the opportunity of learning some patience! What a great deal!
Also this week we started a new schedule. We now do personal study for 30 minutes at whatever time we want before 10 am. And we have to leave the house by 10 too. Then we work until 9, and we have to be in the house at 9. Super weird, right? We do our other studies while we're working! I actually super love the new schedule! So much more time to be able to work!
Speaking of work, we set 8 baptism dates this week! I'm not exactly sure all of them will be ready by their dates, but our investigators are progressing a lot! I am sooo happy to finally be having success! Our ward also started doing a Noche de Grupo every week and we had a ton of investigators come! Our ward is new, and so they suck at helping the missionaries, but little by little we are working with them.
Hna Canedo and I are seeing so much improvement in our teaching skills! She is becoming one heck of a missionary.
Funny stories! We had an investigator who we challenged to read the BOM and when we came back she told us she didn't have that much time to read it. We thought she didnt read anything, but she pulls it out and says "I'm only on chapter 17". We just died laughing!! Yeah, hardly any time at all!
We were heading back to the house one night and I thought we should stop by to say hi to Family Sanchez (our most positive investigators). I was about to say "we wanted to pass by real quick to say hi" But I only got to "pass" and they yell "oh pasen!", which is like come in! And I am now realizing it's really only funny in Spanish, so never mind.
We were visiting this lady who told us we were in her daughter's house. Then some lady comes in and starts freaking out, so we all ran out. Turns out she lied to us and we were just in some random persons house haha, oh well.
We put out a sticky trap to catch rats and we did indeed catch two of them on that bad bay, but also a lizard (and of course like a million cockaroaches) and we felt so bad so we covered him in aceite and pulled him off haha.
I love you all!
