That's right! They celebrate Easter with explosives! Haha it's the best. I love how if anything has anything to do with Jesus it includes fireworks. Why don't we celebrate the resurrection with more enthusiasm? Maybe not with fireworks or anything. But it should be a joyous thing. It's the anniversary of when the Lord conquered death. Allowing us to follow his example and conquer it as well. Really the Easter season should be a season of gratitude and praise. It truly is wonderful. And I love that the people here in Guate don't just celebrate it for one day. They celebrate it for a whole week! Woo! Semana Santa! But as much as we celebrate Easter and we love it, I think it's great that as a church we remember Christ and his sacrifice everyday. Or at least we should be. We make him the center of our lives when we are baptized and make those sacred covenants. And we renew that covenant every time we take the sacrament. That's why it's so important to go to church every week. Rebels.
But anyway this week was full of showing my new compita the area, watching health and safety videos, and giving temple tours. So a good week. A normal week. A week full of people telling me how little time I have left. Mala ondas. But asi es mi vida. Anyway my gente I love you truly. I hope you enjoyed your Easter and made it a joyous occasion! Till next week!
