Hola todos!!!
This week Rey Artalejo got baptized!!!! He is now the only member in his family, but is excited to continue. After his baptism his mom openly told us that whenever we pass by her house she hides from us...but we have plans to stop by this week to see if she´ll keep hiding from us. We offered to help her make tortillas and she opened up a bit more, so we´re hopeful!
Also it rained this week...a lot. So here is a picture of me and my companion soaking wet (even though we had been using rain ponchos and coats). We also saw lightning strike in the orchard right next to where we were running so that was pretty neat! The flashlight I was carrying lit up automatically when it struck as well so that was a fun experience!
Each day out here in the mission is a new experience and opportunity to learn. We have the opportunity to meet new people, have crazy experiences, and create friendships, that despite the difference in language, culture, and the distance that we will find between us, are lifelong. BUT all this only happens IF we learn to be humble enough to learn, change, and grow.
Love you all and hope you have a fantastic week!
Hermana Naatjes
