Okay, first off, I'm sure Walter already told y'all but I'm fine from the
earthquake. I did feel it, it was actually pretty crazy. I was on
divisions with Elder Parry from my group and we actually had to take
cover it was so strong, I've never felt anything like that, pretty crazy.
But here in Quiche, nothing really happened. Everything was fine, in
the aldeas some houses fell but here in Chichi the buildings are pretty
strong so that's chill. But it was crazy, I'm sure you know but it was a
7.2 earthquake, pretty nuts but everything is fine :) Now, the news. I
have changes! Yeah, after only 3 weeks, I have changes and am leaving
Chichicastenango. I was pretty surprised but President Bautista called
me at 6:31 this morning to tell me. I'm going back to Xela but right in
the center of Xela, its gonna be pretty fun I think because I'm going
with someone from my group, Elder DeLora. It's gonna be great :) So that's my big news for the day, I'm going to have to
go down tomorrow morning so that'll be fun :)
I'm glad that y'all enjoyed so much your trip to Hawaii. I'm still
pretty set on Disneyland but we'll see if y'all convince me ;). Either
way, it'll be a fun trip :) As for me this week actually went really,
really well. We had an excellent lesson with the family Ventura (Oscars family) and the entire family came to church yesterday, the
entire family! Well, not the entire, two little kids stayed home to
watch the house but either way, 6 investigators in sacrament meeting
yesterday and ask Nicole how great that is :) We have to pass them off
to the hermanas here in Chichi but we're really hoping they get baptized
and it seems they will :) Apart from that, we had an excellent lesson
with Carmen. She is just the nicest lady you've ever met in your entire
life. The spirit is always so strong when we meet with her, I have the
strongest feeling that Heavenly Father really, really wants her to
receive the gospel at THIS time in her life, she needs it for some reason
and if she prays I know she'll have her answer. One thing I've seen in
this area is how the Lord truly puts prepared people in our way. He
truly wants us to find his children and if we but look, we will find
them.
I feel like this letter is super short but really it's all that
happened. We spent a lot of the week with members looking for less
actives but with very little success ha ha. Also I was in divisions for a
lot of the time so that made it hard as well. But it was a good week.
I'm glad for the time I could be here in Chichi and I hope that I can
keep working hard in my new area. My comp is LEGIT and I'm stoked to work
with him. It'll be a good companionship.
LOVE YOU ALLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!! Elder Westenstorm.
