Week 48 & 49

Haupei Yall!

FIRST: Happy late Mothers Day! I am so grateful for all the wonderful women in my life, and especially my MAMA! 

Happy Things!
1. I got to skype my awesome family last sunday and it was the greatest. I love them so much. So crazy to think that was the last time! 
2. Mothers Day down here was on Monday and the country shuts down to celebrate! It is actually way cool how much love they have for their mamas down here too! We celebrated with our abuelita, Rosa, and ate lots of food and loved on her! 
2. ELIAS GOT BAPTIZED!!! and it was the most incredible baptism I have ever witnessed down here in Paraguay. It was an absolute miracle baptism where we didnt have to do anything either! The members filled the font, made the food, and REALLY showed up! There were over 40 people there! It truly was the most happy day of my life and Elias in his words said, "The water was freezing cold, but once I got baptized I felt all warm and super happy." 
3. ROSA GOT BAPTIZED TOO! And on her big day it POURED DOWN and we were on the way to her house to make empanadas! Another fun fact about Paraguay is that if it rains the country shuts down, so we were praying like crazy that it would stop raining so that we could have her baptism service. And literally as we finished making the empanadas IT STOPPED RAINING! very big blessing!
4. I hit 11 months! kinda crazy...
5. andddd last but not least, I have gotten pretty sick again! So luckily this is a two week email, because this last week was spent in the house...BUT with lots of prayers and studying we still saw miracles at church with less actives and investigators there! 

Overall, life is great! God is so good. and THE GOSPEL IS TRUE!
