HEY! HEY!! HEY!!!
hope everything is going very well with all of you; things here are going well. this last week Toribio Gonzalez Lausekerz was baptized!!! It was so amazing, a wonderful service. we had it on Wednesday night so that most of the ward could be there to support him. the bishop baptized him and it went swimmingly well, a wonderful service, and a wonderful time. it was so great because we didn't have to worry about much: the sociedad de soccorro did the refreshments, the bishop the baptism, the ward mission leader conducted, we did have to do a last minute change for the talks but other than that it was amazing. the spirit was so strong it was incredible. the biggest thing has been the change in Toribio. He is so smiley. Honestly that is the best way to put it. he is just so happy the change is incredible. he told us before his confirmation on Sunday that he walks better, feels better, sees better, and just over all is a much happier person. its so incredible how the gospel changes lives. he is a true testimony of this. two months ago he was completely different, he has applied the atonement in his life and has that change of heart. that new person being born and i am so blessed to have been apart of it.
overall this last week was honestly a bit tough. for me it was a bit confusing the week of the baptism and going to the temple ready to go out and just work your heart out more and more and things just don't go as planned. the thing that i learned in result is that i need to have a bit more faith. more faith in the gospel and more faith that the Lord will touch them. we just gotta keep on working and pushing forward with happiness and a drive to share this amazing gospel.
short on time so a short letter but i love you all and am so grateful for all that you do! i am so happy to be here it is such a blessing.
love you so much
