quick lil update
August 13th, 2018


This week went pretty good!  Elder Shaner goes home on Friday!  Hes been a great comp and he has been working so hard until the last second of his mission.  Last week we met someone named luis and hes 26.  We were walking home last Friday and I saw that he was crying before we walked up the stairs to go to our house.  We talked to him, and tried our best to comfort him.  Both his parents passed away and his wife wants a divorce.  We gave him a book of Mormon and talked a little bit about it and asked if we could pass by his house.  We passed by a couple days later and taught the plan of salvation and it went well, the next day we taught him about the gospel of Jesus Christ and invited him to baptism, and he will be getting baptized this week or next week!  Really shows how we need to talk to everyone cause we don't know what can come of it!  We spent most of the week working with him and getting him ready for baptism, even though he couldn't be baptized this week he is still happy and excited to be.  In church we had 4 investigators!  we are working with a family of 5 right now that are looking pretty promising.  They come to church by themselves!  It was a great week!  This week will be even better.  Love you guys so much!!! have an amazing week!  Shout out to kali for going to college.  Shout out to Sophie for starting middle school.  Shout out to Scotty for being Scotty.  Love you! 😃

Carry the spirit with you at all times! Hola hola everyone!  Super good week this week.  Gonna keep this email a little shorter cause I dont have a ton of time!  I'll just tell you guys all the important stuff! We have two baptisms  this Saturday !! I'm gonna be baptizing them!  Their names are Lisandro and Salvador.  Lisandro is 9, and Salvador is 13.  Lisandro reminds me of Scotty haha.  Lisandro is not quite as energetic but they have a similar personality.  They have a big family so hopefully we can get the rest of them baptized soon as well!  Oh and pray for me cause they have like 4 names and their full names take like 10 seconds to say, and I'm performing the baptisms haha.   Rufina and Jose are doing awesome!  We have a date set with them for the first Saturday of December!  Jose can barely walk, and he cant move the left side of his body very well, we gave him a blessing about two weeks ago, and is health is improving so fast!  Jesus Christ is the do

BREAKING MYSELF IN!!! One more week down!  I know I say this every week but I don't understand how it's already P day again haha.  This week was super good!  Its starting to get pretty cold here in Coahuila!  Pretty sure it gets as cold as Utah but the only difference is that it doesn't snow haha.  Our houses don't have heat so I'm gonna be sleeping in my coat lol.     This week we worked our tails off!   We got 20 new contacts and a lot of them have a lot of potential.  We have four baptisms lined up for the next couple of weeks!!   This week we did a lot of the same stuff each day, we leave the house around 11 or so (only during training), we go to our appts, lunch is at 2, and whenever we aren't teaching at an appt we are contacting and looking for new people.  We walk sooooo much.  My feet kill ha.  We met some awesome people this week who are super prepared!!  We were walking down the street and we met someone who speaks English!!

¡¡Feliz nuevo año!! Merry Christmas and happy new year everyone!!!  I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and new years.  It was so nice to be able talk to the fam!   I may or may not have cried little lol. I don't have a ton of time this week so I'm gonna keep this email pretty short!  We have changes tomorrow but nothing is changing for me!  I'm gonna be with Elder Diaz again so I'm excited for that!  On Christmas eve we went caroling, then came back to a members house and all the elders had a little Christmas themed lesson planned.  Then we ate this super good dinner.  Their brother in law is a chef so he cooks for us all the time.  On Christmas day we woke up and did a little shopping cause it was p day, and i opened a couple packages from the fam!  We got to talk to our families, and it was soooo good to talk to them for a little bit.  I was pretty home sick after though.  Super super home sick.  I was having a hard time, but then i started
