Hey Yall
This has been a great week, I found out that there is a chance that I might train again! I will know for sure in a couple of weeks.
on friday we had a surprise visit form Elder Nielson of the Area Presidency, He spoke to us about the Enabling Power of the Atonement. He had us read a talk by Elder Bednar so we could participate more. It has changed the way I pray, and the way I teach and commit investigators.
I know the Atonement is real and that we can use it for everything! Not just to wash away sins but to overcome weaknesses, to give up weapons of rebellion,and to sacrifice.
I love all of you, I am sorry this is short, but at least its not long winded haha

Lawdy Hallelujah!
I am so happy these days! here are some reasons why.
Sister Vivian finally accepted the baptismal challenge!
I know that God is mindful of all his children everyhwhere
My Companion inspires me to be better.
I know that my family loves me back home.
I have a testimony of the Atonement and Restoration
I am a Disciple of Jesus Christ,
I am a part of the most important work!
35 Now
have we not reason to rejoice? Yea, I say unto you, there never
were men that had so great reason to rejoice as we, since the
world began; yea, and my joy is carried away, even unto boasting
in my God; for he has all apower, ball wisdom,
and all understanding; he comprehendeth all things, and he is a cmercifulBeing,
even unto salvation, to those who will repent and believe on his
name.
I love you all

Mom, we go home at the same time meaning our departure is on the same day, our missions finish at the same time. We always stay together
This week has been kind of crazy, last Monday just as my companion and I were about to eat dinner, we get a call from and Elder in our zone. He says that his companion is having a hard time breathing and his face was swelling. So we took him to the hospital and they give him a shot and put him on a nebulizer for 10 minutes. We took them back to their apartment around 12am. Things were okay for a few days but then on Friday, after we had attended a baptism in our zone, we get another late night phone call and this time he is worse condition, so they take him to the hospital and the Doctor keep him there for 2 nights. We took turns staying with him so I missed almost all of Conference. But I had an amazing experience as this Elder asked me to give him a blessing, and the spirit inspired me to tell him that he would be okay, and I knew that he would. I have a testimony in the restored priesthood. I am so grateful for this blessing, I am so grateful to be able to minister to the children of God.
I love all of you, I know I haven't done those assignments lately.
I love this work

Hey ya'll
So I forgot to tell you last week that Elder Wooden went home, and his family came to pick him up, and his mom and met my mom and his dad was uncle Davids best friend, small world huh?
So to answer moms questions,How is your new companion? he is great! we go home at the same time and he loves to work so all is good. Are you having to find more housing for the new missionaries, Reeve is having to do it. Yes! its a pain! Have you started getting more missionaries yet or are they still learning the language in the MTC? We have, there was 7 that just went home and 21 came in! What is the ward like that you are in now? its good, I just wish we could get the home teaching into gear.
This week there was an amazing experience that happened, We went to visit the Roque family, they are all members except the Dad (Tatay) and he never wants to talk to us. But this time he was pumping some water and we ask if we could help him, he said we could then after we helped him we asked if we could come back and teach him with his family and he said yes! I was so happy. I felt like Ammon serving king Lamoni. I love missionary work!
I love all of you

Hello Everybody,
Mom I don't know if you want to know how they celebrate Easter here to tell you the truth... well now I guess I have to.
they celebrate the whole week, its called holy week, with different traditions for each day. But when Friday comes around there are people that walk with crosses on their back and then they actually get nailed to those crosses as well. Its psycho and I think that its really disrespectful to Jesus Christ.
Everything was closed as well, its kind of weird walking through the city with nobody there when its normally so crowded.
Last Wednesday was transfers, My companion was transferred, I stayed in Baluarte, so i am going to be here for over 6 months crazy fast right?
I love all of you thanks for the support and er'thang
