Here is Morgans letter this week. It is good to know she is so happy! Makes her being so far away - okay!
She just answered questions this week - her responses are in red! I'm sorry, when she responds to questions, I don't know what to include and what to leave out! It is a little bit awkward to know what to use!!!

Hello,
How is your companion? AND who is your companion? Unless it is Amy, tell us everything. Where is she from, how long has she been out, and oh, her name?!?!?
Her name is Hna Villacis....from Ecuador, just ilke Hna Yepez. She has 1 transfer more than me in the mission. Its kinda odd, cause she is companera mayor, but I am leading the area, and all that fun stuff, cause she doesn't know the area, she doesn't know anyone...but its been fun for me. I absolutely love San Martin. I absolutely love all the people. Like literally I would live in San Martin. At least visit...with all my favorite people in my family!!
Also, I am wondering what your apartment is like. It would be fun to hear about it, or better yet see it a little bit.
Literally my leg feels amazing. I was thinking the other day...i cant believe its been a year...it literally feels like yesterday. but is has been a miracle the things i have been able to do here in Guatemala. The pain is gone. I just am so grateful. For everything. This experience is one of a kind! I am so blessed and so grateful. LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!!!
WE LOVE YOU! And we can't wait to hear from you Tuesday!
LOVE YOU!
Mom
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY! (on the 17th)
Oh also, my skin is cleared up! What a blessing! Seriously!! I don't know what changed...but its great. Seriously this is the life. No make up...nada....alsoooo the other day it rained on us. IT DUMPED!! Like the streets were a river in 2 minutes...and we weren't prepared! It was hilarious. Everyone was in their houses watching us walk in the rain...drenched! I loved it! It was so fun!

Our apartment is great. It is above another house...and we have a nice little kitchen, a room for our clothes, a room for our beds and a room to study, and the bathroom and shower are outside as well as the sink. It is a very nice little apartamento.
How is the 400 baptisms for March coming along.
How is the 400 baptisms for March coming along.
The 400 baptisms is coming along. We are working so hard. We were so excited for JM to have his baptism the 22 of march...and we went to visit him last night and was BOLO....aka totally drunk. I am so so sad. I did cry...only because i am so sad for him. He has lots of personal problems and I just want him to be so happy...and I know the only way he can be happy is in this gospel....he just is addicted...and needs to change..and I know he will. I literally just know he will. So now we are planning on him to be baptized 30 de marzo. He is incredible, just needs a little extra help. But we had miracles at church...2 investigators that have never come. One of which we havent visited in almost 3 months because she didnt want anything to do with us...and she just showed up to church on sunday...i think mostly it is because her husband died...but it was a miracle, and she is going to get baptized. I KNOW IT! and a cute 14 year old girl came with us. I LOVE HER! The poor thing lives with her grandma cause her dad works all week and when he is home Saturday night and Sunday he is off drinking and then hungover all day Sunday...so she lives with her grandma, but she is incredible. Also, the sisters of Amelia. Amelia gave them both Books of Mormon, and they are reading and AMAZING: Literally amazing. The only thing is they live kind of far away and so it is hard for them to come to church, but I know they will...also they have to have permission from their mother....which is a problem. But the biggest problem here in Guatemala, is getting people to church. Because everyone and their dog works all day everyday...and they all say...no trabajamos, no comemos...if they dont work, they dont eat...so it is hard to get people to church...but we are going to see miracles!!
What about laundry and cooking, do you still have someone do your laundry? Or was that your other area? How about the cooking-you do your own, or does someone do it for you? What are the food stores like? Do you have a pharmacy there? Did you look for contact solution by chance?

Didn't have time to look in a pharmacy..yesterday p day ended at 3 and my comp and I cleaned the house...like deeeeeep cleaned! And ya we still have people who wash and cook for us. SO SPOILED!!
Where did Hermana Yepez go? Do you know? Will you be able to keep in touch with her?

She went to the coast..HOT!! Santa Lucia...we will see each other a veces...but we cant email..or anything. Just in meetings and such...SHE IS AMAZING. literally miss her so much!
What else can you tell us about your area and the people that you are working with? The man from the rehab center? Any luck with him. I don't know his name! I'm not sure if he is the one you told us about last week or not.
Can you believe you are not a missionary in training anymore. Seems like, from our view point, that just means you get an extra hour of sleep now. I am sure it means more than that, but you still study, just not as early!?!?!? (Ohhhhh, I just had a thought --- that is unless you are A TRAINER! Then you still have to get up early!!)

Well, I hope all is well for you. Please take care of Morgan. Keep her safe and keep her healthy! April 16 is almost here. Not only are you going to be OLD, but you will be a one-year graduate of ACL surgery!!!! I hope it has healed perfectly for you! I hope your leg feels great now!
Literally my leg feels amazing.
