Okay I am going to start with a fun fact... Hermana Heywood
is terrified TERRIFIED of rats and do you know what? She has been living with
one since Monday!!!!!
Yes it is true although I have become a lot
tougher on my mission when it comes to bugs, spiders and cockroaches; I can kill
them easily... but a RAT! Not gonna lie it was a stressful week but
definitely memorable! For starts we saw the rat a couple times more and it
wouldn't die... I had no idea how smart rats were! IT WOULDNT DIE! So
Monday it ate all of the venom and there was a trail of venom to the shower
drain so we thought oh good it went back to where it came from... but NO!
We put a bucket full of water over the shower drain and what do you know? We
heard the rat all night in our kitchen and we didn't know what to do because
when ever we would turn on the light or something it would hide because it is
freaking smart. So on Tuesday after district class we got permission from Pres
to have the ZL come over and dedicate the house and tambien to try to kill the
rat... well they couldn't find it. But our landlady, America asked can they
dedicate my house too? so we went up and dedicated her house too and it was
really cool... she has never let the missionaries enter her house before.. we
always just talk to her out in the court yard. So that was cool and then after
the prayer she was crying and it was cool the spirit was really strong and she
said she wants to go to the CV with us!!!!! yayyyy

Then later that day (Tuesday) hna Mortenson got really sick
after we ate so we stayed at the hna´s house who feed us until hna Mortenson
felt like she could walk and hna Anaya was like ahh hnas go to the hospital...
so we went and she is sick with gastritis and colitis! We were there till about
11:30 pm and pres picked up and took us home... but then that night we couldn't
get back to sleep because we could hear the rat and ahhh yeah! then luckily
Thursday and Friday we could work!
Angeles is doing really really well!!!! She is super pumped
for her baptism and said she is gonna fast so she can get back together with
her husband! She honestly is awesome and she is only 22 with three kids! I
just love her so much! Also Naomi is doing awesome and LOVED her baptism and
when we showed up she had given us jello and she made drawings for us to say
thank you for helping her get baptized... honestly she is so cute! she got
confirmed this Sunday but we couldn't go to church... I will explain in a bit!
Also Orfe well... ahhh she doesn't want to get baptized still so we are trying
to figure out what is holing her back because she is awesome... I think she
feels guilty for committing sin because her and her ex weren't married and
they have two kids... she was crying about that the other lesson we had and we
told her her kids are a blessing and that we have repentance in order to take
away guilt! But we are still working with her.....
Then we were still having problems with the rat... we set up
three different traps and it escaped two of them and one it wouldn't enter
because its smart... but then Friday night we didn't hear anything so we thought maybe it finally died from all of the poison it ate because it ate A
TON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But...still living... so we took like everything out
of the house... ready to kill it with the staff of the broom and we couldn't
find it... we think it crawled behind the oven and is living in the the part
between the oven and the counter.... but the oven is glued to the wall so yeah...now what? I guess the poison dries it out ... they were saying it petrifies it and I am just like oh my gosh petrifies... like harry potter and the basilisk.. hahah so yeah we still haven't found the rat... but we are pretty sure it is petrified in the part of
the oven and wall hahah!
Then Saturday we didn't sleep because hna mortenson was throwing
up all night and couldn't stop so we went to the mish doc and got her even more
meds and then ... when we were trying to catch a taxi out side of the CV (that
is where the DR is) she fainted so back to the DRs we went and they put her on
bed rest for two days and we were not able to go to church but pres came and
gave us the sacrament BUT he got in a car accidente on the way! LITERALLY
THIS WEEK WAS CRAZY! But we are just happy its done and to be able to work with
our people again....
In all honesty I am so grateful for the mish and I know
every second of my mish is helping me be a better person and I know that my Savior lives!!!! And the Lord deff works in mysterious ways. It was a blessing I guess that hna mortenson was sick because we hadn't been able to sleep for 5 days with
the rat and got some rest and then America letting the missionaries in her house, So yes Heavenly Father listens and hears our prayers but sorry really
don't have many pics this week. I will see if I can send some to you all but love
you all!!!!! Have a good week and I will write next week... oh madre with
mothers day idk yet we will ask around and see where we can call you!!! love
you all
