Hello!! Thank you for your wonderful letters. Did you already get the one i wrote you then? that´s great! it didn´t take too long after all. I just got a letter from Kristen that was sent in february. So I would say to use the POUCH if you are going to send hand written stuff. the PO Box that is in SLC. plus it´s less postage too!


The bananas are different than the ones that you eat raw, they have a differnet taste, she just cuts the ends off and puts them in the oven til the skin turns black, she says she eats them all the time instead of eating bread, haha, i am so sick of the bananas but they are ok, i wish she would fry them instead, more yummy that way.. but its ok.
the truth is i was addicted to coca cola for a bit because in my last area we had it every day!!! Then i came here and didn´t have it for a while, and got sad! haha
The baptism was great! Of course we had to worry about getting the clothing, priesthood there, keys to the church and the font, filling up the font (it takes 3 hours!!), etc. But it went well!! She is very happy. sending pictures. hna. Larsen and I sang I like to look for rainbows (cuando me bautizo), and it was great! She was confirmed sunday in church and now she wants to go do baptisms in may or june when the ward goes to the temple (date pending).

Friday was one of the best days on the mission so far. We taught really well and found some good people. We are still teaching Victor and Sulema, but Sulema went out of town for a week so none of the m went to chuirch on sunday, even after they said they would. so we are going to work harder with them :) they didn´t come to conference either but they are really interested in that, they are going to look up the talks on the internet! And we gave them a BOM this week so they are going to read it, along with the principles of the gospel book they have.

We had 2 jovenes 18 yrs and 25 yrs Romina and Mario come to church with us, it was so funny, we contacted Romina in teh street, invited her to churhc, she said yeah, she was so excited, she said she would make us breakfast! haha, but it was fast sunday and she woke up like 10 minutes before we left haha, but she came along with her brother! we hadn´t even had the chance to teach them, but they came and they liked it! So that was exciting, hopefully we can help them progress and eventually be baptized. other than that we are searching for more people, and trying to have faith that we will find people to baptize, it´s so easy for me to get discouraged because it seems like i can never do enough, we can never meet our goals, so i am working on that, i know the lord will bless us.

Yes we teach english classes once a week in the evenings. Hna. harman does most of it, members and investigators come, mostly kids, we always teach from the scriptures or stuff like articlesa of faith, primary songs, etc.

gotta go, time is up. love you all! keep being faithful! love, hna. Tibbitts
