September 28, 2015


well this week went well. we spent a few days in guayaquil. we got to go to the temple and then also had a meeting about family history. it was really good! family history is definetly something really important that can help a lit of people! and of course getting to go to the temple is always the best. i always learn so much new everytime a get to go to the temple! and alright so one frase i wanted to share with you guys that said president, that he was refering to the mission but i feel like its aplicable to all situacions is this ¨dont count the days, make the days count!¨ so i really liked thatand thought it was powerful and makes you reflect. so make everyday count!
also this week Gabriel was babtized! hes such a good kid. got babtized on his birthday! so he was pretty excited about that. also we got a new investigator and she already has a bautsiaml date for the 24 of octuber! she was a reference from a member. i know that really refernces are the best wayto advance this work! so if you have friends that are interested, present them to the misionaries!! well i lov you all so much! hope you all have a great week!
love,

well, this week went quite well. this saturday we had the babtisms of Kelvin Murillo, and sunday he was confirmed! it was great because his older brother, whos a member and whos preparing for the mision, was able to babtize his brother. it was a really great experience. Kelvin is such a good kid who has changed a ton. both his brother and mom are members, but he didnt want to get babtized for the longest time. then one day he started coming to church, and then he talls us he does want to get babtized now! so that was great to be able to help him. Gabriel, who has a date to get babtized this coming sunday, is also doing really well and super excited for his special day!

also, Patzy and her daughter Eisha, two of our investigators tha are scheduled for babtism the 10th of octuber, are doing super well! they live about an hour away, so its harder to teach them, and also harder for them to attend, but they are faithfully attending and preparing for their babtisms! its so great! its really amazing how the Lord prepares his children to accept his gospel when the time is right! i know this church is true and that God loves each and every one of us more then we can even imagine! i love all of you and hope you all have a great week!
love,
