Family,

We're teaching a few people now, which is awesome!  But because transfer meeting is next week, there's no chance we'll get any baptisms this transfer.  But the other elders have one this Sunday.  A Creole lady named Noventa. "Lady" makes her sound old . . she's 18.

One lady we talked to today, Elizabeth, she gives us tons of fruit, and today she gave us hot chocolate with biscotti.  And she does ceramics.  Makes them, paints them, sells them.  She sold a 4' Virgin Mary statue for $1,000 a while ago, which is great because she's done selling and making those.  But she had it left over and some lady came by and bought it, right when Elizabeth needed the money.  It's a sweet story.  She's way cool. Now we just got to get her baptized before she moves to Costa Rica.
