June 14, The Wall of Water and Happy Birthday Daniel! Peronia, San Cristobal 2

Hey people!

This week was really special! I really love being a missionary! What could be better to have this time free of other worries to dedicate 100% of my time, heart, might, mind, and strength to the Lord and to the children of our Heavenly Father?

Last week, I prepared with all my energy for my first District Council and the Zone Leaders changed it into a Zone Council. Oh well, I'll prepare for next week . . . Letter form the president: We will not be having District Councils this week on Tuesday due to the multi zone conference. Interesting. 

This week we have seen a lot of progress in our investigators though they be few and especially in our ward's desire to back us up and work with us shoulder to shoulder. 

The other day, we were leaving a lesson that we had in a member’s house and it had been raining but was completely dry when we left. As we came to the end of the street, I suddenly heard POURING rain and figured we were done for, but we were dry. We went around the corner and saw all over Peronia absolutely heavy rainfall and right before our eyes, but we were puzzled; we were dry. Then it came clear. There was a WALL of water raging toward us. We turned and ran up and up and up the stairs to the member’s house, but about half way up, it caught us. 

It rains all the time right now and the other day we had our first hail storm accompanied by ravenous wind. They say from now on, each storm is going to start with a tone of Hail. Woohoo!

Andersen's dad finally decided that his son isn't responsible for his personal problems and set a baptismal date for him with the bishop!!

Monica found her DPI (ID of Guatemala) so she can get married to Didiari, who makes perfume/cologne in his house for a business. They are super stoked to get baptized. 

Adolfo's little brother Juan Carlos came to the temple to visit and now wants to get baptized this month too!!! He's gonna start going to seminary tonight.

I love you all so very much. Read the scriptures more and seek an unquenchable thirst for the word of God. Do so until you feel that the Gospel is more real than your shoe, or even your hand, then . . . double your efforts. That's where it gets really fun!

I love you all so much. 
The whole world should know that the earth's buffest and most radical stud just turned fourteen. I heard on the streets that his name is Lamoni, but not to intimidate so much, he goes by Daniel.

Have a great week! You are all so amazing. 

If you are reading this, your Heavenly Father loves you more than you can imagine. Allow him to change your life for the better.
-Elder Olson
