That is correct my friends, I turn 8 meses this week. Where did the time go? I don’t know. 

This week went by so fast! We are preparing for three baptisms this Saturday. AKA we are running around locas trying to find, teach, prepare EVERYONE. The work is picking up here in Zona 18. Yesterday was beautiful. There is a family in ward who literally has nothing. And another family doesn’t have much but they wanted to help so the kids cleaned out their toys and we put together clothes and food and we went to their humble hogar to deliver the stuff. It was one of the most precious moment I have witnessed on the mission. I love it here. I love the people and I am learning so much from them. 

I almost got eaten by a chucho this week. He wanted to eat gringa... he was in luck because, yes, I speak Spanish but I am still a gringa.... And when I get scared I start speaking in English to my companion. Hhaha a grand chucho salio from under a car and start to attack. I have never been more scared in my mission. But the owner came out and grabbed him. The mom rushed us in her house and gave us water... we ended up teaching them and they ended up coming to church yesterday.. MIRICALE! I taught my compa the phrase: not today chucho haha Dogs are not nice here.

Good times!! I love you guys!!! Keep being great and I will talk to you next week.

HEY! I got letters for the first time in two changes... MIRICALE! Hahha thanks. I got the package de Mama Upshaw! Thank you!!

LOVE YOU! Oh! And we also had a Guatemala wide service project! I will send pics
