Week 41: May 7-13, 2019 Mother's Day Call

JJ didn't write this week.  Here is a story he told us.  He was going to go to the temple with someone to walk around the ground and they ended up not showing up.  This was a bit of a bummer for Elder Snow.  He then ran into an investigator from a different area.  Someone that he was thrilled to see.  He ended up walking around the grounds with this individual.  It was a really neat experience for him.

Week 40: April 30- May 6, 2019 Explosion

Hey Everyone

Sorry, short email this week.

So, This past weekend was so much fun! it was a blast! Literally! On Saturday a member invited us to go eat barbacoa with them, boy was it delicious! Actopan is the birthplace of barbacoa, and boy, do they know how to cook it! The food was absolutely delicious. It was an explosion of flavor. If you have never tried Mexican barbacoa cooked in the ground with cactus it is a must. 

After that we had an amazing baptism for one of our investigatos who´s name is Emilliano! The spirit was extremely strong, it was so cool to have this baptism especially since we found him only 3 weeks ago! 

On another note, the way that we heat up water here is with boilers.  You have to manually ignite it every morning. Yesterday when I went to turn it on, the pilot light was not on, so without checking if it was on the right setting, I stuck the lighter in and lit the boiler, A huge ball of fire shot towards me and I definitely singed my eyebrows and eyelashes. It was definitely a heck of a way to start ones Sunday. Don´t worry everything is great and I am in one piece!

Love you all!

Love,

Elder Snow
