1 thing I learned this week is that in Latin America, they teach there's only 5 continents, not 7.

A mission has it's ups and downs... Hna Roxana has decided to wait till Hno Manuel returns for her baptism. Honestly, it's the saddest thing when people know the gospel is true and hold the Book of Mormon in their hands and decide not to be baptized. (now or ever) Faith is a gift and I am glad I get to share it with others.

2 meses in Guatemala! I love Guatemala and the people here. I am almost done with my training, I have 3 weeks left. All the Elders joke I am going to be a trainer this next exchange.. One even wrote President about it... We had zone conference and talked about how we pay a price for every one of our investigator's baptisms and it's a different price for everyone.
28 Abril..
We visited with one of our milagro investigators and we're really hoping she receives an answer to her prayers soon and realizes it. "When we let HIm help, there's no limit to what we can become."
29 Abril..
So today, I forgot the keys in the house and we closed the door. Our patio is locked by a gate, so we couldn't leave our patio and we couldn't enter the house.. We ended up scaling the lamina of our neighbor's house to an opening into their backyard. It was super high up and I honestly had so much fear, but we are safe and found Hno Martin (the owner) so he could unlock our gate and house.
30 Abril..
We taught Felix twice today and are getting him ready for his baptism on the 14th. He has so much faith. He has quit drinking coffee and travels so far just to attend church.
1 Mayo..
We went to Antigua as a zone for our Pday! It was definitely a fun adventure. We ran into Hna DeRosier's zone and we got to catch up real quick! All the Elders "aww"ed and told me not to be too happy. Honestly, Guatemala is so pretty and the culture here is amazing and beautiful. I also received a gift for singing a hymn in English in a marketplace for a lady that sells cool stuff for missionaries.
con amor,

Antigua Guatemala Cathedral (Spanish: Catedral de San José) is a Roman Catholic church in Antigua Guatemala, Guatemala. The original church was built around 1541, but suffered several earthquakes throughout its history, and the first church building was demolished in 1669. The cathedral was rebuilt and consecrated in 1680. By 1743 the cathedral was one of the largest in Central America.[1] However, the devastating 1773 Guatemala earthquake seriously damaged much of the building, though the two towers at the front remained largely intact. These have undergone restoration work, and the cathedral has been partly rebuilt.
