GROUP LETTER FROM MARCH 10th
Hey Everybody!
So this week in chichi has kind of sucked. I didn't get to
write Monday because we were in the hospital. My companion has kidney
stones...... So we have basically been cooped up in the house which as a
missionary is not very fun at all. But we finally got to leave today to write
our families and go to a few visits. However, my comp hasn't passed his kidney
stone yet. Which means that the worst is yet to come.... Haha. However, work
wise everything is going great in the area. We are going to have a baptism this Sunday of Susana who is the daughter of a less active family. She decided to
get baptized so we have been working with them and Sunday will be the service.
Our investigator Caren really wants to be baptized but she hasn't been able to
come to church even when her boss said that she could. So after another Sunday
of him not letting her leave, she quit her job. Haha she quit just to come to
church so that she can be baptized and raise her kid in the church! SO that was
awesome for us to hear. I'm super excited for her. She is awesome and verry
very smart. Her baptism is going to the 21st of March. Also we Have another
inestigator, Ingrid who has decided to get baptized on the 28th of March! Also
her sister is working towards that day so we will see where things go with
that. The work is really good here in chichicastenango.... We just need to
leave the house more to find others who are prepared to listen to the message
of the restored gospel. Well, that's all for this week.
Haz tu lo justo.

THIS WEEKS GROUP LETTER
Hello Everybody!
So life in Chichi is pretty chichilero. :) I took quite a
while to come up with that line so I hope you guys enjoy it. And for those who
dont know chilero is just like cool. So.... Life in the mission is pretty great
right now! We are working super hard and we are going to be having 4 baptisms
in these next two weeks if everything goes as planned. This week a single mom
named Caren is going to get baptized, she's really awesome! She has a testimony
of the church and of the BOM and is super smart! Shes great and is super
excited to raise her child (Ian) in the church. Shes going to be a great
member. We totally taught a lesson to a Pastor the other day. We knocked on his
door and we went in.... Then we realized that his house was also a church.
Haha. But we taught him and he committed to read the Book of Mormon. Imagine
that, when he gets his testimony we can baptize his whole congregation! Haha. We
will see how things go with that. But, things are going good, I'm sure learning
a lot and everyday I'm seeing more and more of the Lord's hand in this work. It's
incredible.
Well, I hope you are all having a wonderful time back home.
I love you and I love hearing from you guys and seeing pictures!
Love,
Elder McLain
