Hola hola hola! Oh my dear family, how are you all? my dear friends, where the heck are you? you all have disappeared on me... please reappear and write your missionary! haha so... for the last two days i have been the only hermana here. it has been awesome! not gonna lie i love being able to get done with class and immediately go to sleep. it was heaven. we also get really good food when the groups are changing. mmm mmm mmm! but now the new group is here and yikes there are a lot of people! i now have a new companion.... and she is a latina. she only speaks spanish and i dont have any clue what shes saying most of the time. oh boy! its insane! also all of my roomates are latina and speak only spanish haha i am definitely being prepared for the field. its crazy to think that i only have two and a half weeks left here and then ill be off to good ol uruguay! i really cant wait!.. so because my companion is latina they have been talking about moving me up and putting me in a latino district. so instead of me with a bunch of american elders it would be me with all latinos having all my lessons and church in spanish! i honestly dont know how i feel about it.. im scared out of my mind but i also know that if i do this than i will learn so much faster! i guess we will see what happens.. whatever comes its all good! im just happy to be in the service of God.
so from the last time i wrote much has happened obviously. proselitismo this last week was great! it was my last time with hna kleinman and we had a good time! its amazing how much we had progressed from that first time we went out! we were able to carry on full conversations about the gospel. we clapped doors and had a lot of success. i am going to miss her a lot. while we were out it seemed like it was only men that wanted to listen to us. haha i dont know why but 20 of the 21 contacts we had were with guys. i have now been proposed to 3 times haha there was even one time when a guy was driving his car down the street and he turned around tried to say something to us and then parked his car just to profess his love... i dont get it! haha i think its hilarious! we told him to come to church and he said are you coming i said no and he didnt listen to great to our message after that so we left haha! i sincerely love the children down here.. they are so precious! we saw twins who were almost as cute as my nieces and nephews. the more and more i go out to proselitismo the more and more i realize that i can do this! i can speak spanish and i can bring souls unto christ! its so awesome!
now some good news to all who care haha i finally shaved my legs!! yes, hna kleinman and i waited until her last day to finally shave all our amazing hair off our legs haha.. i have pictures to show but i cant send them yet. i wish i could but they have a rule here that you cant send pics til your last day. but dont worry i will! i wish you could all see some of the funny things they do here in the ccm, every third thursday the elders get a visit from a brother we fondly call edward scissorhands! haha he cuts there hair just like edward scissorhands would except he does a pretty horrible job and the elders are left with uneven hair and a humbled ego hahah i love it! thank goodness im a sister! the elders also have whats called corbata fea which is like ugly tie day haha! they all pick ties out of a backpack and wear them the next day. there are some really really ugly ones! one was actually once a pillow hahah! things are good here! the spirit is strong and the language is coming.. thank you all for your great emails! i would love a letter once and a while though. in like a week i would that you guys send stuff to my actual mission address and not here cuz ill be gone!! yahoo! i love you all and hope your all doing well! remember that god loves you!
love you always,
hermana amy crofts
