Back to Neuva Rosita

Alrightttttttttttt what a week,

We had splits with the sister training leaders and I went to Nueva Rosita! It was really weird to go back there after two months. It seems so small!! Haha I think its like when you{re a kid and your house feels huge, but once you{re older it feels small. Who knows, but it was pretty fun. Nice to also talk with some of the members that I knew, but not I understand and communicate with them MUCH better. Also, the sister that is that area told me that Pedro (my convert) has gone to church every single sunday and is recieving the priesthood this next week. Also, he found the birth certificate of his wife and is starting her temple work!! He is pretty excited about it. AND she told me that he has been asking about me this past few weeks!! I wanted to cry I was so happy. I didnt get to visit him, but good news none the less. He is so sweet.

Unfortunately Angle{s parents have changed their minds about his baptism and are not going to let him get baptized......... at least not until he is 18 so he has a 2 year wait. I am praying that we can change their hearts, but they dont even want to talk to us so its unlikely. Angel said he is still coming to church and all the acitivities and everything though, hes still golden. Pretty bummed though.

Well I am afraid to talk about my favorite family because I feel like I jinx EVERYTHING, but just so everyone knows, my favorite family is progressing very very very well and I love them SO MUCH. I feel like if they get baptized and involved in the church, I could go home from my mission right after and be happy. Of course, thats not going to happen, but I LOVE THEM. We have been teaching them for about a month now (I havent said much because seriously, I dont want to jinx it) but they have come to church 2 weeks in a row now (minus the father, hes a little rought, but I told him I am going to be persistant with him) and loveeeeee it. Juany (the mom), Jonathan (18), and Geronimo (13). I have already said too much. But what is so wonderful is that, despite all my faults, they love me too. 

Ummm my companion had some health problems this week that put her in the hospital and then us in the house so that was fun. But on the bright side, I was super annoying in the hospital (not really) and was asking people how to say medical things in spanish. They were pretty entertained too  haha. Lets say one thing though... I reallyyyyyyyyy hope I never have to go to the hospital here. Seriously, I am so afraid of having to being medically treated here.

Um what else... it rained. and got cold. and then it got slightly hot again. Who knows. 

I am learning a lot about patience and charity and yeah, any advice on that would be great? Missionary work is so very simple and yet soooooooooooooooo very complicated.... why didnt any warn me this would be so taxing?? hahahaha.... no.... but really. Why didnt anyone tell me.....

LOVE YOU ALL,
Hermana Roberts
