Baptism of Marisol, Alejandra, and Casandra :) With the help and support of several members of the Branch! |
When it comes to baptismal clothing, the important thing is that it´s white. Whether it fits or not, is a whole other question! |
We match, found a moving train, and a little tiny forest. All at the same time, in the middle of Mexico City :) |
This week went by really fast, and was full of lots of craziness. We taught the Relief Society how to make chocolate chip cookies (they were quite impressed!), put on a baptism for a wonderful little family, and avoided getting wet and/or pummelled by hail!
We also learned a lot about Faith, Hope, and Charity, and we walked in a LOT of circles in our (relatively tiny) area. It was lovely! I really like Hidalgo, it´s a beautiful little place full of kind people and lots of opportunities to serve and preach the gospel.
As for other news, we´re learning about using our study time better, and this week we´re going to have a 7-hour-long zone conference! 7 HOURS! I will tell you about it in "8 days" (in Mexico, everyone says "in 8 days" instead of "in a week") ... Yep. They say there are 8 days in a week...
Anyway, all is well, and here comes the spiritual thought: Sometimes we get so caught up asking Heavenly Father for things that we forget to be grateful. So every now and then we can just take a break from asking and give a prayer of thanks for all that He has given us. (yes, I know I´m jumping the Thanksgiving gun...)
Be safe and happy, and GIVE THANKS!
Lots of love,
Hermana Houghton
