Week 20 (5/3/10) Email to Mom and Dad

Hola Mom and Dad!
Not a whole lot to report here. Nothing really happened this week. A whole lotta nothin. We have a baptism coming up this week of a nine year old girl whose mom is a member so that will be good. Our other investigator, Marcelo, has been sick for a long time and passed away this week. He was 40-ish years old, divorced with two kids. It was a sad deal and I hope he accepts the gospel on the other side. It made me realize how fragile life really is and to enjoy every moment that I have. Also the member family that we spend the most time with, the Barrios, are having problems and the Hermana told us something about a divorce. That is a sad deal as well. I love the Barrios and it is really sad to see them struggling and that they are considering divorce. This has made me realize how fragile our relationships can be and how important it is to cherish the great relationships we have and to do what we can to strengthen them. Next time I email you guys, I will have a different companion. There really isn't anything to report this week, I wish I had some exciting story to tell you ha. Quizas next week. I gotta go. I love you guys!
Love, Elder Woodside
Hey Mom, I have another request for the next package...Taco Bell sauce! Either in packets or in a bottle, whatever works for you.:)
Les amo.
