Subject: Sleeping Beauty
Hey everybody, so things are going pretty well. This week was pretty long,with some really really slow days. We had problems finding the people who we had appointments with, or finding people to teach, so are numbers are looking too hot for this week. We had the oporutunity to bless two babies this week. One little girl was 8 months old, her dad came to our house and told us about how the family had no money to pay for the treatment. So we helped him out a bit and went to give her a blessing, this Sunday he said she was doing better. But we also had a sister from another stake come talk to us. Her name is Sister Espinoza, she has a 1 month old baby boy named Helamán. The bones in his skull didn't form right and his brain isn't protected and isn't developing right. We went to the ICU in the hospital to give him a blessing. It was pretty emotional watching Sister Espinoza and Helaman. And when I was leaving the hospital I started thinking about a talk from Eld Christopherson about the covenants we make and the protection we recieve from them. Sister Espinoza knows that no matter what happens to Helaman, she'll see him again. I've been thinking about that little guy all week. Thinking about that makes me want to work harder, so other families can feel the same protection from the covenants we make. Sister Espinoza came to our ward yesterday and told me that Helaman has stableized a bit more, so thats good to hear.I also got to baptize a sister named Fanny this Saturday. Her husband is an RM that just reactived himself (I think that works in English too). Her hubbys name is Saulo. He also was called as our mission leader yesterday, sot hats going to be a good time. And yesterday we were sitting in church, and my comp got really excited all of the sudden and said some lady showed up that they use to teach. But the thing is the lady refused to give the elders her address. And after the 1st hour she took off again and my comp was says ‘’come on!’’. So we end up basically stalking this lady to find out where she lives, we were hiding behind bushes and everything so she wouldn't get mad. And then later that night we pretended to knock doors to contact her. IDK if that’s how the manual says we should do it, but Pres Maynes says we should be Inspired Missionaries, so we just did it, and now we have a new investigator.
Mom- We actually taught Lehis dream too this week. Something Pres Maynes taught us was that all the people in the field could see the brightness of the tree, and wanted it. But they didn’t know where the path was.
Grandma- Thank you very much for the update, BYU (The Lords Team) vs #3 Oklahoma, the church is true.
Crystal- Ha, I don’t really have any horror stories… well nothing too bad. But Santa Cruz is way safer that good ol Mexico. Was Matt in Mexico City?
Valynn- the heat isn’t too bad yet, but its ‘’Spring Time’’ and its like 91degrees.
KK- I like Emily, but just so everybody knows I've got dibs on Hadley and Annie.
Elise- I'm not in the jungle, Santa Cruz is a city with 7 rings, and I'm right on the 4th ring.Mom- I think you still have my password and stuff, sister Maynes emailed mesome pictures of when we arrived, but this computer is really slow and Idon’t think I can send em, but you can get on and look at em.Ok everybody, thanks for the support and the prayers. I love you a ton.
Cuídense, Elder WilsonPS 27 days till Conference!!!!!PS#2 I bought a bug net, that covers my bed... but its sky blue with lace on top. Cecily would love it.

FAVORITE SCRIPTURE
2nd Nephi 15: 26-30
26 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth; and behold, they shall come with speed swiftly; none shall be weary nor stumble among them.
27 None shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken;
28 Whose arrows shall be sharp, and all their bows bent, and their horses’ hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind, their roaring like a lion.
29 They shall roar like young lions; yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry away safe, and none shall deliver.
30 And in that day they shall roar against them like the roaring of the sea; and if they look unto the land, behold, darkness and sorrow, and the light is darkened in the heavens thereof
