Dear family!
Well, this week I finally got lice! I was starting to think I wasn't ever gonna get it. When I got to my new area, I had to use the sheets of the last hermana who was there, who, of course, had lice. Whoops! I didn't know lol. Welp, anyways, it's a pretty neat experience, and I’m sure I am now prepared for anything, but really it's not that fun haha. We bought some lice shampoo today, so we'll how it goes!
As for the area, I LOVE SAN MIGUELITO!!! You wouldn't believe these mountains we climb! The hills here are huge, I feel kinda like in my first area again! But it is soooo beautiful and I tried to send pictures, but for some reason it's not working. Also I looooove working here!! I haven't had so much success since san blas! We are planning to baptize every week this change!
We are currently preparing the baptisms of Justin, the smartest girl I have ever met! She fills out all of her pamphlets we give and writes essays on the Atonement. She's like 11 or something. It's great! We found her on my first day, and it was such a miracle find! Her mom is menos activa, so we are going to help the whole family be baptized!
We are also preparing Alfredo. He is Novey, a different indian tribe of Panama, and Im super exicted cuz Ive never taught a novey! He is suuuuper poor. He has 3 hermanos, we will be baptized in these next few weeks as well, but they don't even have shoes to go to church, so I lent them some of my missionary girl shoes, and Alfredo showed up with a giant rip in his pants, without underwear, haha. So Hermana Garcia gave him her cardigan to put around his waist! He was so chill with his hole in his pants, that I'll be honest, It was pretty funny! Haha! He didn't want to use her sweater, but we made him.
Anyways, I am super happy to be here and I am even happier to be with Hna Garcia!! She is suuuuper buena!!! I am so happy to see what happens in these next 5 weeks!!!
Love you all sooooo much!
