Street Corner Wonder

As far as the package we only get packages when we go to Managua and so no one has gotten Christmas packages yet, so don´t worry about that. It could be there in Managua and I wouldn´t know. Belen and Reinaldo are married so that´s really cool. Slady and Ronald (that´s actually how you spell her name) aren´t married. 

Our miracle families are having a few problems, mainly a lot of other conflicts on Sundays. They´re still real cool and we´re working with them. We learned this week that Reinaldo is a leader in his church, but the second visit we had with him he accepted a baptismal date if he received an answer from God. They´re really humble and willing to listen even though he is a leader. 

We also found another really cool family this week--Max and Ana (I think that´s what her name is, we just met her yesterday and she says her name really quiet) Max is always sitting out in front on the corner of the house of Claudia. We always say hi to him as we pass and once we had a short conversation with him, but we´ve never really talked before for very long. He met other missionaries in the states 2 pairs. He´s attended a college ward and always hung out at 5 guys with some elders in Minnesota. He speaks perfect english but never got baptized. He´s afraid of messing up after he´s baptized. He said he lost his faith in the army (he also served in the US army). We had the most spiritual conversation we´ve ever had on my mission on Saturday night on a street corner. I was almost crying. And the next day he came to church and brought his girlfriend too. His girlfriend loved church. One thing I know for sure is that God loves that kid. I hope Max knows it too because he´s definitely been followed by the missionaries. It was also really cool to speak in English.

Hector finally came back into the city from working and I think we´re finally going to get started on this divorce of his. Maybe someday he´ll get baptized.

Grisel´s not doing too hot. Ernesto cheated on her. Live the law of chastity, it brings blessings. They have a lot of problems.

This week in Esteli was all about the Purisimo. All about the virgin Mary...

Love you all sooo much!
