Hello family!!!

This week was a little rough... I don't know why, it just was. that's
how the mission is. you have some great weeks and some hard weeks, and
sometimes your feet really hurt, like now, haha, but its ok. None of
our people with baptism dates went to church yesterday, so that makes
them lose their baptism dates, but i have faith that we will be able
to go see them this week and re-commit them.

Ok you asked me about the weather, its basically hot all the time, it
only get cold for like a week at a time when the ¨Sur comes, basically
cold air from argentina, otherwise its hot, and we havne´t have a sur
for a while, the poor hermana pareja from la paz though doesn´t have
any short sleeve shirts so she is dying of heat.

Braulio is doing good, he´s reading the BOM and gospel principles,
the problem is that he wants to study everything. He went to church
yesterday and enjoyed it, he´s pretty funny. The other day we met him
at the church to teach him. We were with Selfi, the crazy lady in the
ward that i´ve told you about, anyways, he says that we have to walk
down the street until we hit something, so we were like, ok.. we
started walking and he walks into a table where a lady is selling
breads, he picks one up and takes a bite out of it and then throws it
back with the other breads, hahaah, it was funny, he is crazy, he said
he had to try it first to make sur eit was ok, haha, but he did buy it
and he bought us bread - tortilla but they´re not like mexican
tortilla-- so we ate it and then had our lesson. Yes, we want to
teach with president because Braulio is a theology student. it´s not a
special rule or anything, we just think president could help.
president wasn´t able to come this past week but hopefully in this
next week.

Viviana didn´t go to church yesterday but we did get to teach word of
wisdom, she smokes and drinks a lot of tea and she wants to live the
word of wisdom, so we were happy, we talked to her about life and got
a lot closer to her, i really think she will get baptized.

Hermano Lucho says hello!.. haha.. he´s the guy that always eats lunch
with us on sundays. he went out with us yesterday to teach lessons.
hilarous.

Next week as a zone we might go to the sand dunes! I´m excited, i hope we go!!

This week the the OPEN HOUSE: i´m kind of nervous not going to lie. we
had a meeting yesterday to verify with all the organizations what they
have for their stands and the relief society is nuts, they want to
serve refreshments and wanted to serve hot dogs, we were like, are you
kidding!! its an open house not a barbeque! just serve juice and
cookies. they were thinking hot dogs or soy hamburgers, which they
learned how tomake in an activity.. so we will see.

Well... I love you alll! have a great week in school and work and
whatever else. keep prayhing for me and these people. Love Hermana
