Familia! Que honda?!
All the free stuff they give us in the streets for the elections here! FREE SHIRTS. (Carly)
How´s it going?? Life in Colinas is going pretty well! We had our first baptism in this area!!!! It kind of took a little longer, but that´s okay! Her name is Vania Lineth Rios Olivos! She´s 15 and totally awesome. She had SO MUCH FAMILY come to her baptism, it totally rocked! She was excited and happy and everything and has a lot of support from extended family. She lives with her mom (Who is like one of my favorite people here, totally hilarious but isn´t a member. She knows EVERYTHING about the church, though, but we´re going to try and work with her), her grandpa (also not a member) and her uncle (also not a member) but she has like three aunts that have served missions and two cousins her age that she´s close with that are members and all kinds of stuff. We´ll see how it goes, but she has been awesome. Never had a single doubt about any of it! So this week she´ll be confirmed.
Octaviano, the guy whose wife died in December, is all set and excited for his baptism on the 29th so we´re preparing him for that. We had two people who had thei baptism goal date set, too, Juan (79) and Maria (also old but I don´t know her age) but because of health problems we have to postpone it, but they are for sure going to get baptized! Just not yet. And we have an investigator named Yasenia who says she goes to the catholic church but she feels like it´s missing something. We told her that if she comes to church with us this week and prepares herself to be baptized, she will find what she feels like she´s missing. Know that´s true!
So it´s been a good week. As for other things, our houseowner found a CENTIPIEDE at our house. SO NOT RIGHT! Those things are gross! Thankfully he totally burnt it and it was all sick but they´re fast! And gross! So now I´m totally on the lookout. It reminds me of after we´d find a scoripion at home and then the next few days we´d walk everywhere with a blacklight looking for those suckers. Totally sick. Anyway, you´ll love the picture.
Me, Hermano Gonzaga, and the SICK CENTIPEDE!

That´s about it for new stuff on my end! Life is good out here and couldn´t ask for more! I don´t know if Father´s day is the same day there as it is here, but Happy Father´s Day UD! YOU ARE THE MAN :D
Thanks for all you do, family. Miss you tons and hope things are totally awesome!
Much love,
Elder Wheeler
Me and my companion!
