Hello family,
How are things going? It has been
fun this last week. I can't believe how much time has passed. It has been fun. Here is what happened this week. Monday was tough because we couldn't find many
people in their house but we taught a member family because our goal is to help
all the members understand how to share the gospel. They are all new at this. Tuesday we found a guy who is very interested
about learning more about what we teach. We hope to visit him this week to help him
know the doctrine. I also found a
scripture about baptism and the gift of the holy ghost in Acts 19 (2-6) about
how we should receive the Holy Ghost. Then
the next day we just worked on other things we needed to do.
One of our investigators who in the
past rejected the Book of Mormon is reading it like crazy. He is attending church and is on his way to
maybe a baptism after the transfer date so we will see. Thursday we passed by him again and he was
still positive and he wants to meet with us during the morning hours which is
hard to find men in the house at 11 am in the morning. We are excited to continue with him.
We are having problems with our
family baptism. We might not be able to work with them for
much more. Friday I had an interchange
with Elder Jurado and we helped set up a men's activity for the ward to animate
them more. We had shish kabobs. They were delicious. I had fun setting up the computer and whipping
out the info from the computer like a high tech guy.
On Saturday we worked hard with an
investigator. He is the only one who
truly understands the restoration. It's
not an easy topic to understand. We can see a baptism in the future for him. It's so crazy. Sunday was hard because the power went out but
besides that everything went well. We
taught a guy from El Salvador and he is interested. We hope to find a way to help him spiritually.
I had tons of fun. Hope you can receive these pictures.

Hello family,
Sorry this might be short. Here is a
little bit of what happened. Monday was interesting. We had a new family start taking the lessons. We found another new family and we sang a song
with a new investigator. It was funny to
see them sing with us. We definitely don't
sing on key. Later that day we passed by
a member's home and in the middle of the lesson two dogs came out of nowhere in
front of us and attacked each other. It
was funny but hard to bring back the spirit.
Tuesday we went to the city of La Esperanza
and we stayed the night to prepare ourselves for the trip the next day to the
temple. We then on Thursday went to the
temple and it was so spiritual. I had a
lot of fun going to the temple. We found
a family that night which we saw the day before on the bus. We somehow found them in their home just
contacting.
Sunday we ended the day
finding another family. We found 3 new
families this week. We also had a lesson
with a person who refused to pray out loud only in silence so my companion told
him pray then say out loud amen.
That's all I got. I have to go. Bye.
