June 20 two months and 5 days. But who's counting.

Hello! As I am writing this it is dumping tons of rain outside, it appears

we are still not out of the rainy season yet. I bought a huge umbrella

though and have started to just bike around with it so that actually keeps

me very dry most of the time now. We moved 'G's' baptism just one more

week back and so you will all probably get the pictures from that next

week. We needed some time to finish reviewing the lessons since there were

a couple of things we asked him about he didn't actually understand. He has

a mother who talks for a REALLYYY long time and so we have decided to just

meet with him individually and he gets so much more out of it. His dutch is

also not the best and so we just have to take it really slow and help him

to understand what a lot of words mean and why these things are important.

In other news, 'W,' our recent convert, is having a very strange

problem at the moment, in that he has been claiming to be attacked by

demons who keep telling him to burn his book of Mormon... we are going to

go dedicate his house this week with the branch president and are trying to

help W understand that spirits can't force him to do things and that

he has power over them. It has been very stressful. hahah but we are making

do. I hope that you all have a great start to your summer and you'll

hear from me again soon!
