Buenas!!!
Another great week here in Samaria! I hope everyone is doing well and not frozen to death quite yet! Panama is the complete opposite, if it snowed here that would mean the world is ending. This email will probably be pretty short!
Most of the week is just a blur honestly. It went by super fast! But it was a good week!! We got some more fechas, and now there is only one week left of this transfer! I'll probably be transferred out of Samaria and off to a distant land.
Two highlights of the week would be watermelon and cosecha money.
We walked a lot one day, and this random guy gave us some watermelon for free. It was the best thing I've ever tasted! It was super sweet, and the juiciest watermelon I've ever tasted!!
As far as cosecha money goes, I am officially paid as a missionary. This lady gave me and Elder Buhler each one dollar after I offered a prayer for her. We tried giving it back, but she refused to take it. And then she started getting mad, so we just took it. I'm rich now!
The biggest highlight is also the spiritual thought for the week! We have my favorite man Juan who has a baptismal date. He is progressing super well! We invited him to church last week and he couldn't go because he can't really walk. But this week we invited him again, and he was like "I. Will. Go. To. Church.". We went to get him, and he wasn't in his hammock. So we were a bit worried. But then, he walked out of the house fully dressed in pants and a shirt. And he started walking to church with us. Now it's a very steep slope to get down, and a pretty decent walk to get to the church for an old man like this. And he literally could barely walk. But the Lord gave him strength that's for sure. He was walking to the church and he was so happy! He was like "I'm walking! I'm walking!". And he had a good time at church, and is going to be baptized on the 25th of February. I seriously love this guy so much. The spiritual thought is that God always provides a way for us to keep his commandments. Always. We just have to be faithful, say prayers, and act. And God will give us strength.
Love you all so much! Pray for the people of Panama please! Bless them with a desire to change their lives!! I'm praying for all of you! Until next week!
