hola hola
well i cant believe im sitting here writing my last and final letter here in guatemala the land that i love! i honestly am so grateful for the chance i was given to serve a mission here. this week was crazy and went super fast.
tuesday we had my last district meeting and it was a weird day that it was my turn to give my last and final testimony. never thought itd be me! but time flies. then we had divisions with the hermana leaders. i stayed here in centro with hermana peña. she came with me to the mission and leaves next change becasue i was in the ccm longer. we talked about the mission and it was so good to just be with someone that was there at the beggining. well even before the beginning because we were friends on facebook jaja. love that girl
i also had my last interview with president on thursday and, i went in and he asked how i was, so i told him i was nervous. he just laughed and we had a great interview like honestly it was so amazing and by the end we were both crying...well i was and he almost was jaja. he is so inspired and i feel so grateful that he was my president. he told me about all the travel situations and sounds like ill be alone a lot. different hotel...alone....different flights....alone....lots of time to think i guess jaja
also i couldnt leave guatemala without eating intestines...yeah wasnt my favorite dish but anything is possible with a pile of tortillas in front of you. that saved my life! me and my comp rocked that meal!
and the best part of my week. FROILAN WAS BAPTIZED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how could my last week be any better? it couldnt have it was the greatest. froilan is a miracle and wow the baptism went great. me and bingham made cookies and oreo truffles but then there were like almost 60 people at the baptism and it was a miracle that there was enough. so grateful for that! he was so happy and so content. a lot of his family came and they invited us to eat dinner with them after the baptism. tonight i have to go say goodbye to froilan and we are all probably gonna cry. he is the best. saying goodbyes is hard but hopefully ill get to come back and see everyone again someday.
well i love being a missionary i love the gospel, the church is true! God loves us and listens to our prayers. im so grateful for my experiences good and bad, i know theyve helped me to be better and most of all to learn. everything happens for a reason and God has a plan for every single one of us.
well i hope you all have a great week and see ya soon!
con mucho amor
