August 24 -- One More Time



Many things happened this week. It would be inappropriate to tell you about them by email, though. Sorry. Suffice it to say, I am alive. And still here.

Tania´s baptism is this week, and Juana´s is next week. But the assistants want us to bump her up to this week. :( She finished Alma, but we do not know where she is anymore in the Book of Mormon. She asked us what she should do with her idols (her Virgin Guadalupe and her nativity). We explained that nativities are fine, and that the difference between worshipping idols and remembering Jesus is very large. Gloria is moving to Matamoros for during the week, but is here on weekends, so she will be here for her baptism on the 19th and can attend church.

We met a woman named Amelia who already knows we are different. But I cannot tell you why.

We met a woman named Nelly who also knows this but for different reasons.

We had a bunch of confrontations this week with people who wanted to know what we think about mental issues, homosexuality, gifts of the spirit, and similar concepts that are supremely difficult to explain when the person who asks the question has their mind set on one answer, and it is not the correct one.

We are doing fine.
