Dear Everyone,
How´s it going? This week we weren´t able to finish with our LPE goal, we thought about why, and sure enough it´s when we get to our Mondays, we always seem to fall short on Mondays, we end up always saying we will finish during the week then we procrastinated. It never works thinking that we could finish it another day and then before we know it, its Sunday. Yup we will not do that anymore, it doesn´t feel good not completing a goal! We talked about it for a long time, and decided to always do LPE even on Mondays. We always thought since it´s after six we didn´t need to talk anybody, but that never works, and that´s not who we are supposed to be. I was thinking about my calling, we are MTC, which means, we are missionaries all the time, including Mondays, so we´ve put that in practice and I'm sure it will help. We were able to get one of our investigators to come to church, she is progressing very well, all we need to do with her is get her married and then we can baptize her, she has talked to her boyfriend and he agrees that they should get married because baptism for her is really important. Hno Marciano and his family didn´t show up to church. We even passed by their house to bring them but they weren't there. Hno really wants to get baptized, but I told him if he really does and loves the Savior then he needs to show Him. We defiantly can´t do that for them, so I think I´m going to leave after we have one more visit with him. Everything else here is going great, we are striving to improve our weaknesses every day, still praying and trying to search for the chosen. We try to set goals that we know are possible to achieve. So I enjoyed the picture that you sent, I really enjoyed seeing my two Nephews, I can´t believe how fast they´ve grown, time defiantly flies by too fast. It will be weird getting home because they will have no idea who I am. So I heard Steven left, I never thought it would be that hard to hear that he left, but when I read the letter it was really hard. I know that God will protect him, maybe teach him something's he needs to learn out there. If we are both lucky we will come home at the same time and wouldn´t that be nice for mom. :) I speak spanish basically all the time dad, my companion is Latino after all and probably the only time I speak English is when I´m with the Zone Leaders who are Gringos. My spanish is not perfect, nor do I think it will be after my mission, there is still lots of times were people can´t understand me but it´s been way better than it ever was. I just need to fix the grammar up a bit! So we have interviews with President this week, interviews with president are so good, he´s defiantly an inspired man. He was called to be my mission president for lots of reasons and I´m thankful for him. Well that's all I have for the week, you are all in my prayers. Tell my grandparents that I love them. Till next week!
Love you all,
Love you all,
