okay, what a week, we got a lot done and we're ready for Pina's baptism...

okay, so sunday was crazy, we got to church at 8 to teach Charles, his wife, and his daughters the first lesson. it was really good, then church started and Pina didnt show up, so, we went to her house to get her, unfortunately, when we got there, she wasn't there, we didnt know where she was, and she wasnt picking up herphone. So, we went back to church and i was destroyed. I was so upset, i wasnt sure what to do, i really just lost hope. i can honestly say that for the first time in my mission i lost the hope and the faith, i dont know why, but, i did. Then during sacrament meeting, i got a call from guess who... pina. I was so mad and at the same time i was happy, if that makes any sense. So, she came and i just wanted to strangle that girl, but, the spirit told me not too, just kidding. By coming to church, she has fulfilled the requirements for baptism and now on friday, she'll be baptized. It was funny, yesterday, we were going over her baptisimal program on the computer and she didnt lie how i was doing it, so she did it her own way, i thought it was funny, but, im down with that. I just thought it was hilarious that the ivestigator was making her own baptisimal program. So, she's doing well, yesterday was rough, she alsmost backed out (dumb Satan is working hard on her) but, we'll push through and God will bless her, we gave her a blessing of comfort as well.

Charles and his fam are great, they dhould be getting baptized next week if all goes well. Sorry its a short letter, but, i gotta write president my weekly letter. Love you guys
