Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there, especially to Pops (what
I call my dad)
I'm excited for this weekly email, a lot of fun and a lot of
miraculous moments, also a bit of some sad moments.
So Maria's daughter died and she was texting us as her baby was
passing away. We were then invited to the funeral of the baby (the
second funeral and rosario, a special kind of Catholic funeral, I have
been to). So we went and mourned with them while sharing the Plan of
Salvation with them. The effect was amazing, their sadden faces turned
into tiny smiles.
Miraculous moment: it was the end of the day we decide to contact
someone before we retire for the night. A family had given us a whole
bunch of Spanish names because we have been having trouble finding
Hispanic people so they gave us addresses off the Internet and also
names they find at work. One of the names was Leticia and we had an
address so we were in the neighborhood and we saw a girl walk up the
street, turned out to be Leti and even more amazing she was
interested, awesome.
Fun times: I got to service on a farm it was a lot of fun. We used
chainsaws to completely destroy a tree. We also fed some horses and
burned a bunch of dried up woods, it was so much fun. We had a Karaoke
night on Saturday to celebrate Father's Day, the missionaries sang
Feliz Navidad well we changed it to Feliz Día de los Padres. And there
was a lot of fun times especially when two little girls sang a song,
way adorable.
I guess I'll just finish up this one by saying I really love my dad
and appreciates all he does for me and I cannot wait to reunite with
him and the rest of my family .

It was surprisingly nerve wracking. The horse is as tall as me and 3 times heavier.
