mi nueva compañera es muy calidad
Well I am just the happiest little missionary on the planet! This week was so wonderful! My new companion is a rockstar! She is from Utah but she grew up in Chicago and she is so much fun and so funny! We just laugh all day long and we get along so well! We never speak spanish ever but I don't even care because I love her and we have so much fun together, I could talk to her all day which is perfect because I am with her all day. She is so cool! We were talking and she was telling me how she loves to hunt and camp and what not and shes all "you probably have never heard of our camping slash hunting spot for my family" and I said "yeah I am sure I haven't but you can tell me anyway" Turns out it is good old 9 mile canyon. When she told me I kinda freaked out a little bit. That was like the first 5 minutes of our companionship so that set us off right and we have been clicking ever since.
Tuesday was my last day with Hermana Sanchez. In the morning we went to the temple as a zone because our zone baptized the most people in November! so that was freakin awesome! yes I have seen the new video, it was in spanish but it was super sweet! Then that night we had such an awesome family night with hermana mima, it was like my favorite lesson of my mission. Her husband is inactive and has a bunch of problems with drinking and comes home drunk and beats mima and his kids and crap, but at this lesson he started crying and thanking us for taking care of his family while he wasn't and for bringing the spirit into his home and all this cool stuff and then he told us he wants to come back to church and he begged us to help him and then he came to church on sunday and it was all just really cool!
This week I had to lead the area cause Prince is new here and doesn't know anyone. I still suck with directions but all went well and it was a solid week. Tell Dad I got his dear elder, I always love those and I also got grandmas package and it was so wonderfully perfect and also made me cry. I miss grandma and grandpa so much! but this week was totally my favorite week of my mission, I don't even know what is worth telling you but just know that I am doing fabulous. I love Guatemala, I love the members in my ward, I love the culture here, I love teaching my investigators, I love my companion, and I love all of you!
Oh and this morning I got to go to the beach with my zone. basically my entire zone changed so it was a great way to bond everyone. The beach is gorgeous, the prettiest beach I have ever seen! and we played soccer in the sand and ate fresh coconut which is totally gross but I ate it anyway because it made me feel cool. It was such a blast! Well thanks for the pic and the email, I love you all so much and I miss you tons! I hope you are enjoying the christmas season and the snow! have a good week!
Love,
Maren Marie
