May 9, 2011 Do mexicans smile in pictures? nope.

Well hello everyone!!
HOw was your week and how was your MOTHERS DAY! I hope it was good. here in mexico, we celebrate mothers day tomorrow. 10th of May. But that doesn´t matter. I want to wish every mother a happy late and early mothers day! haha well Yesterday was great, becaues I got to talk to the FAmily!! That was fantastic! you all sound like your doing very well and I really hope things stay well.
Well this week was pretty good. Just busy busy busy. We finally got everything done for the Marriage of Elizabeth!! It was crazy, can I tell you all right now how hard it is to get married in the state of Morelos, mexico? very. we had a billion papers and blood tests and classes and wooh! lots of things. But finally On friday at 4:00 p.m. We had the marriage of Elizabeth and Sergio! It was great. And because they´re now married we also had the BAPTISM OF ELIZABETH! She´s awesome. She´s been active for some months now in the Church, but wasn´t married to her husband so couldn´t get baptized, but now she is married and baptized! It was a great experience. The pictures in this email are of the Wedding, and the ones in the next email will be the baptism. But yes, it was a very stressfull week for me. But we really saw the blessings start to come after everything was said and done and we have a good aspect for the rest of this month. If we have a few investigators come to church these next two weeks, we can baptize EVERY WEEK! ´Thats what the goal of the mission is right now. for us to baptise every week of every month of our mission. It´s hard, but very possible!
Yesterday we went to a members house and watched "Charly" with the family, what a sad show, it´s really good though. It really helps you put into aspect what the goal is in this life, Eternal marriage, not just for deth do us part. What a great blessing we have to be members of the only True Church of Jesus Christ and for the blessing of Eternal marriage and Temples.
Well thats about the highlights of this week. I hope you all have a fantastic week and Talk to someone new about the Gospel!
I Love you all!!
Love
Elder Summers


Well here are some other photos of the baptizm!
p.s. Mexicans don´t smile in photos, never. it´s weird.
And just so you know. When a church door doens´t lock correctly the Incorrect thing to do, is tie it with string, shove a mop or two or a broom in it and wedge it shut. That is the INcorrect thing. haha But we have gotten robbed twice this month. They first stole a cd player, then went to the AC units and stole all of the copper out of it.... why? I don´t know.
