"Y sucedió que se humillaron ante el señor, de tal modo que sentí gozo y grandes esperanzas de que anduvieron por las sendas de la rectitud." 1 Nefi 16:5 

 “And it came to pass that they did humble themselves before the Lord; insomuch that I had joy and great hopes of them, that they would walk in the paths of righteousness.” 1Nephi 16:5

So today we were contacting and we met ANOTHER super receptive family from the Mosquitia and we had a v spiritual lesson, the mom wants to go to church and she wants to bring her 4 kids #yeahhhhh #pense 

I tried out some of my Misquito on them and they thought it was cute and they let me check out their bible  "God" is "Gad" and that's basically the only word I recognize.

In the evening hermana Elena called and we spent the rest of the night hauling water to their house because it's been a month now and they still don’t have water 

crabs keep getting into our house

 This little boy told us a story today, it started with, "there was a little girl living in a forest, but she wasn’t alone, she had a dragon"

This guy said I look like Alice in wonderland

Jueves 7 de Julio:

A year ago today I fell and hurt my knee a year ago today and Elder Lucero told me he started his mission a year ago today. He's cursed my life from the beginning hahah

"The first epistle of John emphasizes that Jesus has come in the flesh, and shows its bearing on the life of men. It was probably written after the Gospel, for it assumes in the reader a knowledge of the facts that Gospel records. 

It also contains warnings against the dangers that beset a true faith in the literal incarnation of Jesus even before the end of the first century, both from teachers who claimed an authority independent of our Lord's in the revelation of truth and from teachers who refused to acknowledge a real manifestation of the godhead in human flesh.

"Te tengo grabada en las palmas de mis manos”

“I have graven the upon the palms of my hands” Isaiah 49:16 or 1 Nephi 21:16

Marta is so excited for her baptism next week, I’m so proud of her and all that she's been through.

She also goes by Maribel in case there's any confusion, she's the woman that spent 6 years of her life homeless.

She wants us to visit her every day until her baptism. sounds good to me!

Sabado 9 de Julio:

We were trying to go to lessons in the morning but all of the appointments kept falling and between each one we would run into the same little old lady carrying firewood and then help her carry it back to her house until I was just like what are we thinking? the lady keeps showing up with more firewood! So we asked her where she was getting it from and found a muchacho to help us and we got all the wood to her house in two trips. Sure, we didn’t have any lessons, but there's more important things sometimes.
