Well this past week has been good lots of trials but some good experiences I will never forget!!
So first I bought a pet... his name is Stevie and he is a iguana pretty dope hahaha!!! so I can explain.
I was at this one investigators house and he had been out working in his corn field and in a tree there was a iguana and the meat of the iguana is super good I hear.  So for food he took it home and it was just a little guy and they were like playing with it rough and so I felt bad for it and bought it for 20 qetzals hahaha.  I took it home, took off its leash and it flipped and bit me and ran away and now I can't find it in our house... just kidding I found it and let it go in a mango tree but still I won't ever forget that one hahaha!!!




We went up to San Visente and we taught this family that has a son on a mission and the mom broke down and said that its hard for them to come to church but every Sunday they can't come they have been reading lix hu laj mormon and they have been spreading the gospel up there so now we have four families who want the gospel and two guys from these families came down 3 hours to get a Book of Mormon.  It was cool the guy asked me Ma Wan lix hu laj Esperanza, do you have the book of hope and I was just like the Book of Mormon and he was like yes, so we happily gave those out and this Thursday we are going up there to teach all four families at the same time and I can't wait, but I am super nervous but stoked!!




I did a lot of service this week but it was fun.  I love old people especially old Q`eqchi people, we went and helped this member who is older in his corn field and no there are not machines here just good old fashion intelligence!! So what we did was simple, he pokes a hole in the ground and I put three pieces of corn kernels in the whole and bam done! Super simple but good fun talking to this Brother and asking him about his history and his family pretty cool life but that is a story for some other time!! 
My comp really wants to leave so I am pretty sure I am going to be in Canlun for another change which I am fine with especially if we get those families up in San Vicente but the work is looking up here and I am always tired hahaha but good fun, spiritual times here in good oldCanlun Polochic.
Well I love you all  - hope you have a good week and stay safe and healthy love you all thanks for everything.
