  Hey everyone!! it is good to be writing once again! This week was good as always. This week a lot of crazy things happened actually but the most exciting thing is that... WE BAPTIZED ANGLE AND ISABELLA!!! We had their service on Thursday and boy oh boy it was cool. We got everything set up and I baptized Angel and my companion baptized Isabella, then I confirmed Isabella and he confirmed Angel. Super good feeling oh my goodness and super amazing to get it done finally. They invited us to dinner over to their house after as well and we had mole which was really good. We didnt get to do as much as we usually do of finding people and stuff because we had the baptism, also our branch president was super picky this time too and we had some struggles with that but we got it done and man it felt good.   All of our friends are still progressing really well. We didn't lose anyone and didn't pick anyone new up. some people here and there of course but no one near the top rig...

  Hey everyone! It is so good to be writing to everyone right now. This week was a good week as always. We had some nice lessons and we also had some super nice relaxing moments. But... the biggest news is that FINALLY, We put ANGEL AND ISABELLA ON DATE. It took for ever to do so because their mom wasnt a fan but i will tell you that the prayers worked because their baptism is for  this Thursday !! super soon so i am scrabbling right now to ge the baptism set up and all but what an adventure. Their mom finally said yes and we are really excited.  The next thing is that we ended up handing off Roberto sadly, so we are no longer teaching him. Super sad, we came over and he was not happy with us and we talked to him and we wanted to just share our testimonies and he would not let us. It sucked but they all have their own agency. we will see what happens. We also as always had some awesome lessons with Hector and Gabriel has been hard to contact so not much with him. Ram...

  This week was good as always. Just doing the basic missionary work and trying to do the best I can. The week was full of rejections and ups and downs and all sorts of things that took me and my companion for a mental spin. We will start with Roberto, He is the one in the wheelchair and we were about to get him to church. We had someone there waiting for him to get in the car and his wife said he couldn't so he said no. We taught him more and committed him again and showed up and his wife totally rejected us in spanish calling us names and telling us we are terrible people and we abuse him. We asked her to let Roberto decide, and she would not and told us she is catholic and that we shouldn't pass by again because robertos brain is not good enough practically and that she choses for him. we are going to pass by this week and bear our testimonies and leave it. I don't know why she did that but oh well.   We also set another person on a date this week!! We have a girl who co...

  Hey everyone! This week was a crazy week as always and we worked really hard. Sorry about last week's email, I had no time and I accidentally deleted a lot of people but this is it!! Lots of teaching and finding this week. We ending up finding 15 people this week which was crazy. Our goal for the month was 13 and most here have a goal around 10. Super fun finding and teaching. Ramon that has a date is in Mexico and Angel and isabella they don't have a date yet because their mom won't let them right now. Kind of frustrating but we are working on it. We are teaching a lot of people and we have some other real potential. Someone named Gabriel is super interested and is taking like everything we say as truth and we found a 19 year old who hasnt heard about christ. Super excited and those are just a few.   We went back to Pedro's house today and I won't go into detail but let's just say we won't be passing by again for safety reasons. We met someone who claimed...

  Subject:   No time!!!   Hey everyone!! I have little to no time just letting everyone know this week was great and lots of hard work!! We put Ramon on a baptism date and he of Course accepted!! We are working hard and finding lots. Trying to keep up the good work!!! Sorry for the time crunch!! Hopefully everyone had a great week and a happy new year!!! I love you all!!
