Week 51: MY BDAY, MORE PARASITES, & BAPTISM!!


Honestly SOO much happened this week hahaha!
We had a big zone conference and I was chosen (with my comp) to give a training on faith in front of all the missionarys! AH it was kinda a lot of pressure with the AP's and president there but it turned out good! 

Then I turned 2O IN GUAT!!! They take birthdays sooo serious here haha I got yelled at by some people cause I didn't tell them a ahead of time!! So cute! But I had such a fun day! I WORE MY TRAJE TIPICA IN THE STREET!! (the traje tipica is their traditional clothing) And everyone was shocked haha I had AT LEAST 3 grown men stop and take a picture of me in the street hahaha Then we had 3 birthday parties haha!

 In one of the 3 party's my comp decided to spray silly string ALL over me. AND IT GAVE ME SUCH A BAD ALLERGIC REACTION hahaha My skin just inflamed so quick and my comp was so worried haha She felt so bad! So I read the can to see what the heck was in it and it said in big letter DO NOT SPRAY ON SKIN hahaha But it was written in English SO ONLY I COULD UNDERSTAND IT hahah #GUATLIFE

It was interesting to have a birthday on the mission cause I found my self forget it about my birthday as I taught lessons and focus on the people! It was fun to serve the Lord on my bday! 

I got THE WORST present ever from a DRUNK GUY in the street!!!! SO I was saying bye to someone and I leaned in to give her a hug goodbye and THIS DRUNK GUY SMACKED MY BUTT AND RAN AWAY!!! I was sooooo confused and my comp was ready to kill this guy but I calmed her down and we moved on ahhah RIP #guatlife

THEN I took a poop test to see if I have parasites AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW!!! I have 2 kinds right now!! hahaha I have GIARDIA LAMBLIA and BLASTOSISTIS HOMINIS!!!!!!! I literally remember learning about these in microbio ahaha When I got my results the nurse just looked at me SOOO concerned and I knew before I even read the results It was BAD hahaah SO I got in contact with the doctor of central America about what meds I need to take and I started my treatment todayyy RIP ME!!! How did I catch MORE PARASITES!!! Literally the members are so crazy they believe that people get parasites from dirty feet??? They also believe that with LEMONS or COKE I can kill the them haha OMG I am so ready to stop being sick!!! So when we realized that my poop was CONTAGIOUS we BURNED the towels in the bathroom and any used toilet paper (they dont put toilet paper in the toilet to flush here they put it in the trash can) then WE BLEACHED THE BATHROOM 2 TIMES hahaha We burned all that stuff in the street which is 100% normal here hahah wow I have turned into a chapina lol #GUATLIFE
Then the CRAZY members told us a hurricane was COMING but it was a dang false alarm hahah 
AND to end the most insane week ever we had a BAPTISM!!! YAY Julito got baptized!!


It was super special for me cause he is the son of someone I reactivated last transfer with hermana calvo! Julito{s mom died about 3 months ago and he was so sad, as we taught him the plan of salvation he understood baptism as an important step to see his mom again. It was a special day and I know that familys are forever. I know that death is NOT the end. Death as no power of the power of Jesus Christ. As we strive to be more like Him we can prepare for our life after death to live heavenly father FOREVER!!! What joy it is to my heart to live the gospel. 

Con amor
Hermana Salisbury
