 Hey family!

Genaro got baptized and entered the kingdom of God this weekend! It was a super spiritual experience. All of his friends and family were there and they made it excellent. It really is a different experience when your family and friends are there. Especially when those friends are the ones that brought you there.

Well this week I think the biggest thing that I learned was about being constant with your focus and desire. So we had a pretty good week last week and this week was doing fairly well also. At about Thursday we had already met some of standards of excellence for the week, were about to have a baptism, and also had about 6 people already promise us that they were going to church. It was looking to be one of the best weeks in my whole misión. And that is when I got a Little relaxed, thinking that everything was going to fall into place. I did not think too much about everything until Sunday afternoon at church, as I waited, and waited, waited, and nobody came. not a single investigator came. It was one of the hardest moments of my mission, I felt like I had failed God this week, which is not a greatest feeling. I thought about all the stuff that maybe I should have done, but I didn´t. I truly lost my focus and desire for a couple of days this last week. It makes me remember how sometimes in this life we think that we are doing pretty good. Maybe our church calling isn´t too difficult, we don´t have too much work, we read a good 10 minutes of the scriptures, whatever it may be, there are always those moments when we think we can take a Little break, take it a Little easy for a Little while. I learned once again this week that you can not do that. When that happens, we lose. We can never let that happen, the Celestial Crown is way to high to stop climbing. Never forget why you are here and what you need to do complete your purpose!

Well I hope that you all have a fantastic week and that you work hard to build the Kingdom of God! Love you!
