Donde fue escrito el Libro De Mormon: TULIMÁN

This week was amazing despite a few minor setbacks. On Tuesday we helped the family we found two weeks ago put up a fence in their yard. The hermano told us it was only going to take 3 hours at the very most, so we thought hey nothing to lose. We showed up around 8 and started working on the fence. We took a little break and shared a message with the family then went back to the fence. When we finally finished half of the yard we looked and realized it was 2:30. We told the hermano we had to go because we had other appointments and he wasn't too happy about that. We went back Thursday to share another lesson with them and really stressed the importance of going to church, but they weren't willing to commit to anything, so for the time being we are giving them a rest.

Later Tuesday night there was a big rain storm here in Zacatlan and at about 9:10 after we got to our house the power went out in basically the whole city. It was pitch black and we couldn't see a single thing outside our windows. Good thing up until that point we hadn't bought a light bulb for our house, so it was just the same as always.

On Friday we had one of the best comidas yet. We went to the house of the relief society president and the elders quorum president and when I saw the table I almost died. There were two types of carne asada, three types of salchichi, salsas, and rice. There was so much food the three of us and the family only finished about half. 

On Saturday we contacted in what is called "La Barranca" its basically a giant canyon that runs through the middle of the whole Zacatlan region. We hiked down it a little and started contacting the houses and we found a couple of people who are interested, but mostly it was cool to be out in the wild. Later Saturday we had a baptism of two kids whose parents are members. It was a really great baptism, but the best part is the family invited a non member family to the baptism. Everyone in the family felt the spirit and the next day they came to church. We are going to teach them on Wednesday and invite them to baptism, so pray that this family will accept and they can be baptized!

Today was also crazy, we went to a place called Tulimán that has waterfalls and rivers and it was way cool (pictures attached). We were dying hiking out because we basically descended the whole Barranca and were climbing back up, but luckily God answers our prayers and we got a ride out. 

That sums it up for this week.

Adios!
