Hello children!

Well I definitely feel like I had a week of improvement. Whether it was in the key indicators or with my companion, a lot of progress has been made:)

Well our first triumph of the week was that on Saturday we had 10, yes 10, investigators progressing. Unfortunately only 3 of those held, but at least we learned what lessons we need to focus on this week, the day of rest:)

I feel like we are finally getting some good investigators now. This area seemed like it was slowing down pretty rapidly when I got here, but I think we have put a stop to that and are making some real progress now in finding new people to teach:) 

Well like I said the last week me and Elder de la Cruz are good, but we needed to work a little bit on his diligence. I really feel like we made improvements with that, or at least are starting to. I have had many talks with him over this past week and how we can improve as a missionary companionship. We have established many rules to help the both of us, and I am definitely seeing a big light at the end of this tunnel:)

The best lesson by far that we had this week was with a the Olivares Gonzalez family. They are absolutely incredible. We met them a few weeks ago. The lessons that we have had with them before have not been exactly incredibly powerful, not bad at all, just not a Alma and Zeezrom moment is all. Well this last Friday we stopped by four an appointment with them. We have almost always taught just the mom and the dad, but this time their 2 daughters were with them. As we sat down I could tell that this lesson was going to be amazing, just by looking at the faces of the family after the mom said the prayer. We were ready. We started to teach them about the ministry of Jesus Christ and the Apostasy. As we got to the final parts of the restauration I could feel the Spirit so strong! At that moment the Holy Ghost was testifying of our words with an immense amount of power, bearing witness that the Church of Jesus Christ IS the Church of Jesus Christ. As we invited all of them to baptized, my heart filled with joy as they all accepted. What a great calling I have! To help bring the Exaltation of an entire family! I know my part is only to teach, but what a grand privilege it is to have! I love this work and testify the truthfulness of it with all of my heart! Jesus is the Christ! The Only person beneath the heavens in which you can be saved!

Also I learned that you just have to take off the shower head in our shower to have incredible pressure:)

Love all you guys! Always follow your hearts!
