Week 22 Good things and poop in a cup



Hello dearest family and friends!
Let´s just kick things off with the best news that a missionary can give! Our baptism went great!! I mean it was fantastic! She is so excited to start her new life and is so dedicated to the gospel it amazes me! I'm so happy to stay here for another 8 weeks to just see her grow! She has a huge family so I know that we will just sneek our way in and teach the rest of them too! One daughter already told me that she wants me to baptize her before I leave so that is great!! Baptisms just make all of your hard work and your crazy stressful life vale la pena! It's great! Xiomara even tells us that she wants to go visit people and share the word of God with us! She has an alcoholic sister and invites us over every time that she is there. The sister is literally crazy but I love her with all of my heart. I'm excited to work with her too. And Xiomara is in my Gospel Principals class and she answers like every question. It makes the class go my fast because I'm not just awkwardly standing there hoping that I get a response. She is just great. She washes our clothes for free and feeds us like every day. If we say jump, she would say how high. That's how much she loves us.
Okay, also we will have transfers this Wednesday which means that my ball and chain will be going home! I love him as a person I just hate him as a companion haha he made me really mad Saturday that I just started yelling at him in English. I'm sure I came off as crazy. We are fine now and later that day we were good to go as well but he really made me angry. I'm not usually one to get super angry either.
I'm excited to see who my new companion will be! I dont care who it is really. I hope its a Latino so I can speak Spanish more and get better but if it is a gringo I would be happy too! I want to train more than anything though. That would be so fun. Especially if my niño is like a 3 foot tall latino. That would be my dream. Maybe one day.
Another thing is that I was still sick all this week that I went to the hospital on Wednesday and had to poop in a cup. I've never been so ashamed. They didnt even give me a bag to put it in so I had to walk shamefully out of the bathroom with a cup of poop in my hand. Not fun. I go back again next Monday too. The first results said that I had nothing wrong but I clearly have something because I had been throwing up for like a week straight and every time that I eat I just feel sick. So that's why I'm going back. Maybe I will get sick and they will send me home for like 2 weeks to recover and i can be home for Christmas! haha quien sabe.
This week was just good. I was obedient and I felt the blessings of my obedience. We had old investigators ask us to come back and talk to them again and they are very promising. The Lord will bless you more than you can imagine if you just follow the simple rules. Its easy and I love it.
I love you and I look forward to talking to you all again!
Adios
Elder Garry
