So first of all Happy Birthday to Dad. I hope you had a great birthday.
So this week was pretty great. Sandra got baptized on Sunday and was super happy. It made me kind of sad, though, because she bore her testimony that it was the happiest day of her life but the started crying and said that the only way it could be better is if her husband was there with her. It is a little hard because he worships the santa muerte which is pretty much just the grim reaper. It is kind of scary because people who worship it have tattoos of it or have shrines in their house. In D.F. there were more people who worshiped it so there were huge cases that had the grim reaper inside and people would put offerings by it. We are going to work with her husband a lot though. It will help a lot that Sandra got baptized because it will bring the spirit more into their home.
This week we went to our training meeting in D.F., so that is always fun because we get to see all the other zone leaders and sister training leaders. The Brady family brought us there because all their kids go to a special school in the city for kids who are bilingual. I can't even imagine going every day to school hours away. 4 hours every day just to go and come home from school. They are the best family ever, though, and they live in a neighborhood where there are a lot of people from other countries who are only there for work so when we went to eat with them yesterday one of their friends from Germany was there. It was crazy because his kids can speak German, Spanish, English ,and Russian fluently and one is 7 years old and one is 11. I was super impressed and I think I am going to try and do that with my future kids jajaja well I have to go because we don't have a ton of time to write on Half Pdays but I hope everything is going great there in Chicago and that you guys are going to have a great move.
Love,
Hermana Jones
