Hey
family,
Happy fourth of
July!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bueno, This week was
an extremely long one!!!
I don't have too many
amazing experiences to share, but um . . . I got shocked in the shower. Here in
Guatemala, water heaters don't exist, so you make a really big shower head to
hold a lot of water before it leaves and throw a whole ton-load of electricity
into it and whalaaa! You have hot water. Well, in our house, we have two
bathrooms. One is super-duper small (mine) and the other super king (Elder
Diaz), but all of our electricity is on the same circuit. So if we shower at
the same time, a ton-load of electricity here and a ton-load there equals no
electricity and freezing cold water for everyone. (I already had super cold
water for my first six months, but still, hot water is nice.) Anyway, we were
short on time to get ready and Elder Diaz was in the shower. I ran all around
and turned off all of the lights then jumped in the dark shower and used only
bursts of water quickly then turned it off as fast as I could (as to not turn
of the hot water for Elder Diaz). Well in one burst, I raised my arm super-fast
to wash off soap and tada!!! My arm had a very soothing and lovely ZAP!!! I
finished my shower and then turned on the light to look. The high-tech shower
head had a ground wire designed to prevent shacking someone, but someone had
graciously cut it so I got to act as the ground. :).
Well this week,
Jennifer told us that she received her answer and she wants to be baptized! She
will be baptized this Saturday hopefully with her little sister Nahomy.
Woohooo!!!
I love you all very
much.

easy and my burden is light" - Jesus Christ. He will not take away our
burdens and afflictions but he will strengthen us under them. LOVE YOU
ALLL!!!!!!!
