Yo yo yo fam! So I have one transfer left..and I get to spend it WITH HERMANITA SANTOYO!!!! Can you believe this??? I still cant believe it haha and we are staying here in Moval. I am more stoked than EVER. We have been asking for this since the day we got split up and what was funny was when we were together the first time we decided that we were going to serve as STLs together and it came true!:) I love that freakin' mexican so much! This week was a hard week as far as investigators go. We had lots of powerful lessons and only 1 came to church. We have been working with Rocio(non member) and Enrique(member) because they aren't married and living together. We have been trying to help them to get married and on Saturday Enrique told us that he will not be getting married again (he was married before) they said they are calm right now, that they don't have any problems or worries and that made me so sad. We made it clear that this life time is like nothing compared to eternity. Everything we do here matters. What ever we do right now will affect us in the eternities. We always have to look at the eternal perspective. It made me so sad to hear them. But there is nothing we can do but pray for them. We worked hard with Arnold this week. He was doing so good, told us Saturday he knew everything we taught was true and was so excited to come to church and he didn't show up. We think there is a psychological problem with him, just how he is. He is kinda off but we want what is best for him. So we are still trying to decided what to do with him. And we are still working with Hermano Jaime. He didn't drink all this week. And then yesterday they had a party and he started drinking again. We are still working hard with him trying to help him have a desire to follow Christ. This week we had MLC( Missionary Leadership Council) And we talked a lot about the importance of the BOM. The Book of Mormon really is a gift that our heavenly father gave us. I love that book so much!! We also had the opportunity to teach the bible class and gospel principles class which was really fun. So we ate with la Familia Tenorio this week and they made us hot dogs wrapped in bacon with grilled onions on the top talk about dang good!!! We just quite enjoy their food haha We were able to help pack up our old relief society presidents house cause she is moving, and it was an answer to our prayers, we love service opportunities! So yesterday we were eating with La familia Gonzalez and their little daughter Josie(4 years old) wanted to play missionary. So her and her mom were the missionaries, and we were the family they were going to teach. It was the cutest thing. She taught us about the BOM and Joseph Smith and gave us a BOM. Talk about example. That little girl is going to be the best missionary! I'm so excited for this transfer. I cant believe i only have 6 more weeks, totally freaking out but I know i'm doing what the lord wants me to do. I love my mission. And i love you all too:) I hope you have the best week ever!!!
Con amor,
