Well, it has continued to rain. Almost everyday. And sometimes its like the sky is falling because there is so much water. The roads become rivers and peoples...um... i don't remember what is called in English.... Become waterfalls, and its just a bunch of fun!! I kinda really like it. I will try to put a picture on here. Funny story, the other day we were walking to one of our appointments and we looked down the road at where we normally walk and it was FLOODED. My companion said, "wow! Good thing we went thing way!" *Splash! In front of us was a ton of water too!
Another thing, us silly American celebrate 5 de Mayo, yeah, thats not a thing here. BUT September, THIS IS THE PARTY MONTH! Its pretty exciting. Friday we had a stake party, and our mission president let us go, and we got to stay out until 9! Woot! All the wards did a cultural dance from different parts of Mexico. It was fantastic!!! (But oh so hard to not dance.) Lots of people went to the activity and I even got to see some of the wonderful people from my first ward! Parties in Mexico are pretty fun I have to say.
Our star investigators are progressing very well. October 11th is going to be a great day! The daughters birthday is this Saturday and we are "first on her list." Its so amazing to see their progress. The other day, the mom was talking about how at breakfast, the daughter was bearing her testimony to her dad and brother that she KNOWS this is the way and that its true. She also shares with all her friends. We still got to get her mom married, but other than that they are PERFECT.
Last Monday night, we had planned to have FHE with a sister and a couple in our ward. When we got to the couples house, they weren't home. The sister was sad because she lives with her nonmember daughter and her daughter goes to school at night so she felt lonely. So, we decide to go to her house and have it with just us 3. When we got to her house, her daughter was home! Her zipper had broken at school. She really likes to sing, so we sang some hymns and then had a short lesson. She said the last prayer, and I just had an overwhelming feeling to ask her to be baptized. (*Side note, the first time we met her she didn't want ANYTHING to do with us and made it clear.) So, We asked, and she said YES! :D So, we will see where this goes!
Thats about all I can think of. Love you all and I witness that this is the true church! What are you doing to prepare to listen to the prophet? :D
Love,
