Oct 22, 2012

Your all going to die when you here why Alex wasn´t confirmed this weekend! In my mission if someone has a date to be baptized or confirmed we do “daily contact” every day. We go to their house and have a lesson with them to keep them on track (maybe that’s in every mission..i don´t know). Anyway this week was going good with our daily contact with Alex. She was super excited to get confirmed when on Friday we went and knocked on the door. Her “dad” (or so we thought) answered the door. Right when he saw us he said “Alex can´t today........want to talk with Estér? (the mom)” confused because were all great friends we said Ok. and about 2 seconds later Estér came to the door. Ceaser left to go to work. Right after he left Estér said “well, Ceaser is embarased to tell you guys what really happened, but He´s not the biological dad of Alex, and her real Dad came and took her shopping, so she can´t today”. We thought that it was all good and told her that we´ll back tomorrow (Saturday). Saturday came and we went again to her house and once again Estér answered the door, this time with a face full of stress and tears. She said “her dad KIDNAPPED HER” and took her to provincia, and Estér had NO idea where she was. She called the police but here the police are like corrupted and have zero authority. So they didn´t do anything! They don’t have hardly any money and they spend all they had on calling the police and the dad of Alex. It was so sad. Finally after Friday and Saturday Alex called her mom balling because she was mostly worried about her confirmation and Estér told her to tell her dad that the police will be involved if he doesn’t drop her off TODAY! Well finally he dropped her off, and yesterday night she called us safe from home and said she is ok and we can come tomorrow (today) So we´ll see her today. but HOW CRAZY OF A STORY IS THAT. If I was Estér I would move far far away with out telling anything to her real dad. And he isn´t even in jail or anything. I told a member that the police didn’t do anything and the member said “yeah duh, its only been 2 and half days...its not enough time to do anything” I guess they wait a week or something here before the send out a search party or anything. So crazy. But what ever she is home now and safe! and will be confirmed this weekend!!!
Other then that nothing super interesting. Were teaching some really cool people. A ton of hippie type people, I don´t know how or why but its fun. They´re super spiritual. Transfers are this coming week so we´ll see what happens I think my companion is going to leave and ill stay here! Well i love you all thanks for your letters!!!!

Love,
Hermana Marchant
