Mothers Day in the mission field


Hi everybody!! How are you all doing since I talked to to yall yesterday? It was so good to see all of your lovely faces and hear your voices!! Also Happy Birthday to my big sister Morgan! And to Avery tomorrow !! I hope you all have a fun day and remember that I love you!!! So this week has been pretty good. We had a double baptism on Saturday, it was for an 8 year old boy Named Edgar (we are teaching his step mom and she will be baptized sometime this year), and  older man named Robert.  Robert is the man I talked about in the last email who went on line and found us! His 9 year old daughter Brook will be baptized on the 23rd, so we are looking forward to that.

Ok so the story of the week.... Oh yeah ok remember the embarrassing story I wrote about a few weeks ago? We I hope that you do because I am not going to tell it again. Well Tara is the girl who  said that she used to be atheist but that it was just to sad, boring and depressing. So she stopped. Well she has now finished the Book of Mormon and is rereading it with her Boyfriend! She says that she knows that It is true and she wants to be baptized! If only she would come to church and keep appointments then that dream could become a reality! Also her younger sister Reine is more involved and she has committed to pray and read the Book of Mormon with her sister.  

Ok so here is the funny story of the week. So the candy down here is really nasty! They have normal little round balls that you suck on and then when you least expect it..WHAM there is chilly powder on the inside and it is nasty and HOT!! Some candy has the chilly powder on the outside as well, and it is even more nasty. So the other day we were at the church for something (I cant remember if we were at church for church or an activity... Oh well) And there was this 7 or 9 year old boy who came up to sister Rose and asked if she had any candy. She told the kid he could have some candy if he promised to eat it and not spit it out. So this poor kid unknowingly agrees to eat this mystery candy. Now sister Rose had just bought lots of Mexican candy, some with the chilly only in the inside and some with chilly all over. Also she loves to torment small children and animals, so she saw this as the perfect opportunity to torment this kid. So she got some of the really nasty candy with chilly all over it and gave it to him. I tried to warn him not to do it but sadly he did not listen to me. So he pops it in his mouth and starts to suck on it and after a few seconds says "WHAT IS THIS!" She reminded him that he promised not to spit it out and so he just kept it in his mouth. And then the kids mom came by and was laughing so hard at the look on his face, I mean really this candy is nasty!! And he then looked like he was going to pass out or vomit so sister Rose finally allowed him to spit it out. This poor kid has now learned to not accept anything from Sister Rose who is now the mean and evil Missionary, and I am now know and the nice and good Missionary.

Ha but its been a great week over all and I love to be down here. I miss you all so much and hope to hear from you again soon!!

Love Sister Chatwin
P.S Don't accept candy from strange missionaries!!
