We get to go to the temple open house!!

Man this past week has been pretty special!

With all of the brujos y brujas...witches, celebrating their holidays...needless to say it has been a little different around here...lol...I never thought that I'd ever meet a real witch but hey...ITS GUATEMALA!!!!

We also had a special conference with Presidente Maravilla this week and it was pretty cool...at last!...He told us that the Elders get to go to Xela to see the open house for a day!! And maybe to the dedication also which would be amazing!!!

Supposedly we are going to be having interviews this week to see if we are worthy enough to go there...lol...man this is so cool! My whole mission has been wrapped around the Xela templo and at last I get to see a few more fruits of our labors!!

As far as baptisms go we are going to be having another one this Saturday for Andrea...she's pretty cool and the missionaries supposedly were teaching her for one year...so pretty cool, to be a part of that!

I'm pretty confident that with all of the people that are going to be going to the open houses these next few weeks, that we are going to be able to baptise a good part of them...at least the part that really want to find Christ and that will feel of His spirit there...even though it's not dedicated yet, it's still the house of the Lord.

We are bumping into a few rough spots with a couple of our families here but I'm sure that with a lot of fasting and prayer we can find and teach what it is that we need. We just need to study a little more, and we will have the success that is awaiting....More than anything in these last two months I just want to try and work my behind off so that when I get home, I'm just completely exhausted, LOL!!!, WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Anyways, love you guys tons!!!
