Ya, I wish I could´ve been in Torrejon. Part of our
Peruvian family got baptized! Leslie is the mom and Jennifer is the
daughter. They´re the people who cancelled their baptismal date a couple
months ago. Even though I wasn´t there, they still call me and Elder
Fisher their missionaries. Especially me since I taught them for 4
months and only missed 3 weeks before the baptism. I´m happy they made
it finally. I´m definitely going to visit for some p-day. The only two
left in the family are the 4 year old daughter and the dad who is
waiting to see how they go. I really wish I could´ve gone. They´re just a
little trip on the same train line as I am but President said no.
Apparently he doesn´t let anyone go to other baptisms even if it´s the
next area over. And another friend of my first recent convert, Henry
from Nigeria, who I half taught just got baptized too. I´m happy for him
too but the other baptism means so much more to me.
Yep, I´m almost on the countdown, but not yet. It´s
weird to think Wesley is finishing so soon! Elder Fisher just finished
on Saturday. He´s going to visit Villalba some day soon so that´ll be
fun. There´s not much news here. It seems the farther north you go the
less work there is. Elder Shamsabadi´s old companion is really north and
he has absolutely no investigators. Oh! I think I mentioned that we´re
teaching a man that is exactly like the man from Up. He´s a short, stout
little Spaniard with parted white hair and a cane and huge square
glasses. He drives a little tiny European car and he´s living in a house
he built with his own hands. He´s just too adorable. I´ll send pictures
when I get a cord.
There´s not much to say. It´s been a slow, less
joyful week and I really need to be remembered in prayers if you all
could. I love you all!
Os quiero,
