Enfumugados

Buenas tardes mis amados amigos! So these past couple weeks have been pretty good! Insanely hot... but still pretty good! Today we had quite the surprise! We were getting ready to come write, when our neighbor knocked our door.  She told us that the city had sent people to spray the houses with an insecticide.  Like 5 seconds after she said this, a man barged in with a gas mask and a massive leaf blower type sprayer thingy and kicked us out of our house... So Elder Kirkham and I went out in the street while this man doused our house and belongings with insecticide... I was rocking the white shirt, dress pants and flip flops look and Elder Kirkham was rocking the shaving cream beard in the middle of the street... They told us we would also have to wait 30 minutes before entering again... so that was quite the exciting moment...

Outside of getting kicked of our house we also had quite the surprise this week! We have an investigator named Saul, who we've been teaching for a while now. Saul was going super strong when we first met him, and was getting close to being able to be baptized.  However, he found a job which doesn't let him go to church on sundays... so we've been encouraging him to ask his boss to change his day off to Sundays. On Saturday he gave us the news that his boss changed his day off to Sunday! So he was able to come to church again yesterday and we are planning to have his baptism this week!!

The other great news is that Rosa, the mom of Jocelin and Frida (the two girls we baptized April 20th) found another job! The reason she didn't get baptized with her daughters was because she had to work on Sundays and wasn't able to come to church! However, she found another job as a secretary, and it lets her have Saturday and Sunday off! So she's been able to come to church the past two weeks and we are planning to have her baptism this upcoming Sunday! So if everything goes well we are hoping to have two new amazing converts to the church this week! But yeah, we also had a fun activity that Elder Kirkham and I planned this last week! However, we don't have the photos still so I'll explain all about it next week when we have the photos! So look forward to that! Meanwhile, have a great week this week! Talk to you all next week!
