Dear Family,
Monday. After P-day, we went to go visit Marcia and she was in front of her house crying and freaking out cause her husband and her son got in a very bad car crash the day before. She was telling us that they should be dead and the the cops were saying the only reason that they are alive is because it's a miracle from God. We got to see the picture of the car and it truly was a miracle! After that, we went into the house and gave them a blessing. It was the first time that her husband let us talk to him.

Tuesday. Today we had a lesson with a nuevo named David. He accepted the baptismal invitation, which was awesome. Then we tracked for quite some time and at the end, a less-active family invited us over for family home evening, which was so fun.
Wednesday. I got to go on an inter-cambio with Elder Johnson before he leaves, which was so fun. I can't even explain. We got to go to a deaf guy's house and teach him, and he was so cool. He was teaching us sign language. I wasn't thinking and I accidentally asked him if he liked music haahah. I realized shortly after that he can't hear music and I felt so awful, but he told me not to worry about it, which is good, haha. But it was so fun getting to go with Elder Johnson.
Thursday. Such a good day. We went to work. We found so many new investigators today. One of them we found when we helped a girl in a wheelchair get off the bus and get to her house. She lives by herself and nobody really helps her. She was so cool. And then a miracle happened. We went to go teach Marcia, but her husband was the only one in the house and he let us teach him a lesson. He has a ways to go, but the fact that he even let us teach him was a miracle. It was so cool having that experience.
Friday. Today we taught a lot of lessons and they all went so well. I had the chance to give my first priesthood blessing in Spanish today, and it was awesome to be able to do that. It was in my broken Spanish, but it was so amazing to see how my Spanish is improving.
Saturday. Today we contacted all day and all of our investigators cancelled on us. But we ended the day going to Angel and Ximena's house, which is always so fun because they are so amazing and fun to be with. We, also, saw some dude get beat up on the bus which was quite an experience.
Sunday. After church, we literally contacted all day and found this cool kid after I had this feeling to say a prayer because we were contacting for hours with no luck. Heavenly Father listens to our prayers. It's incredible that we have the chance to pray with him.
One of our investigators bought 50 chickens to eat them when they get bigger. He's 65 years old and his girlfriend is 39 and they have 3 kids. Such a good family.
If you look close enough you can see one of the volcanoes in the background.
Love, Elder Copeland
