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! ðŸ˜ƒ

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, an...

  The best week of my mission!!!!!!! Hello everyone!  I was super super nervous for this week, but it turned out being one of my favorite weeks in the mission so far!!  So my old companion Elder Lorenzo was made zone leader here in Neuva Rosita, it was sad to see him go but ill still talk to I'm all the time because he is my zone leader!!  My new comp is elder Diaz and he is from Argentina!!  He has four months in the mission, so we are both super new, but we are killing it!  This has forced me to learn my area really fast, and I realized I know my area a lot better than I thought.    This week I have realized, that my English is starting to go downhill haha!  Sometimes I forget how to say something. Or I don't know how to use the correct grammar!  Kinda crazy haha.  Now I don't know English or Spanish! sometimes ill be talking to another American missionary and I will start talking in Spanish without realizing it!...

UNA SEMANA MAS TERMINADA (Another week down) Hola everyone!! Everything is going well here in Sabinas!  We are working super hard and having success each day!  We got two more baptism dates!  Their names are Jose and Rufina!  I have a strong testimony that the lord truely does prepare people for us to teach. Things are also going really well with Gerardo, he is the one I'm teaching in English.  He can speak English because he used to be a drug dealer, (narco) and he drove back and forth from Mexico and the united states transporting drugs.  He truly has repented and he has such a strong testimony.  When I first started teaching him he reminded me of Joseph Smith.  He said, all these churches claim they have the truth but they all teach different things.  I explained that Joseph Smith had the exact same question, and I taught him about the restoration and Book of Mormon in English!  He is the only person I have met he...
