It's beena real great time fore us our here in Maria Auxiliadora. Maybe not so much because or recent news we've recieved, but we're happy with the way the Lord does his work.
It was a real blow this week to have Jordana's second fecha fall due to.. we're not really sure what. She just sticks with the idea that she's not ready to be baptized, she herself won't even come with a reason as to why. She's talking about her little sone serving a mission, being sealed in the temple etc etc. She just sticks with ''it will come when it comes.'' So she's got the next bap goal for the 2nd of may.
Francis on the other hand is doing so great! We left with him yesterday to go hometeaching. he's got about 6 familes to visit once a month and is always enthusiastic about doing new things in the church. He's given us like 6 references to teach, and 2 of them came to church last week. So thats cool.
Today was full of a deep cleanin of the house. My companion and the other guy went to go get their hair cut so e. Aplanalp and I were able to mop the floor dominican style. It means wetting the tiled apartment down with bleach and fabuloso, then beat it and scrub it with a kitchen broom. Then comes the big ole bucket to wash it all down the 3 inch whole to send the nasty water 3 stories down to the stinky street. Theres no other way when your serving in a dominican mission.
Then we went out and had lunch with the assistants. I got some nice sticky panda express kinda chicken. It was expensive and not filling, but It's fun to go pretend like we're something special and buy ourselves food, and take a happy picture crowded together with our 10 dollar plate of rice. haha
I send you lots of love and 3 cool pictures from today
