Well sorry that this letter will be really short. It's because me and my companion are sick and we don't have a lot of energy.  I don't know what we have but it will all be alright.

So this week we had divisions with Bethania and with Trebol 2 and in the divisions we learned a lot of things from them. I always love divisions because you can learn of little things that you can be better at and little things you can change to become a better missionary.

Well I have been reading in 1 Nefi chapter 8 which talks about the tree of life and I love this chapter. In this chapter we can all learn different things here but something that I loved was that if we stay strong holding to the iron rod, we will get to the tree and finally be able to partake of the fruit that will bring everlasting joy to our lifes. This everlasting joy is only possible through the gospel of Jesus Christ, through his gospel and his sacrifice we can be clean of our sins and we can return to live with him for eternity.  But only if we have a tight grip to the iron rod we can continue in our path to the tree, through our study of the Book of Mormon, prayers, attending church and having our family home evenings, we can assure that we will be guided by the spirit and that we will receive the blessing that the lord has in store for us.

Well today I'm going to start out by telling you guys that a miracle happened in our area! So about two week ago we had a meeting with Elder Ochoa from the seventy, and in the same meeting President Crapo told us that he was going to change our goals as a mission. So he changed the goals that we have to contact 105 people every week, (the same as before) 15 new investigators(the same), 4 investigators in sacrament meeting(NEW), 2 new fechas (the same) and 2 baptisms every month and the second that we had this new goal of 4 investigators in the sacrament meeting, we had the blessing and a miracle to have 8 investigators in sacrament meeting. We were only expecting to have 4 people and then 4 more people came and we were so suprised but more than anything we were happy that we had so many people in sacrament meeting.

Well I don't have too much time, but I will tell you guys more next week!

Have a good week! and I hope that everything goes well!

Hey family friends!

This week has been a great week as I have got to know my area and as I have started to teach the investigators in this area.

Right now I don't have a lot of time but I would like to let all the mothers I know, HAPPY MOTHERS DAY! I'm sorry to tell you guys this but I'm grateful that I have the best mom in the world! She has always been there for me and supporting me in everything I do, whether it was in swim, school, and especially here in the mission. She has done so much for me and I will always be grateful for her and when I get back I will have to start doing a lot of service to payher back for everything!

Have a great week! I'm doing fine and I'm safe! That's the least I can ask for! Thanks everyone for your emails! They really let me know how much you guys care!

Family and friends,

Well this week has been amazing! We were working super hard so that we can help our investigators come to church! and we had 6 people in church! It has been a little bit difficult to get investigators to church but we are now starting to progress.

Also, this week we had alot of lessons with investigators to help them progress and so that they can enter into the waters of baptism!

But sadly I won't be able to be at their baptisms or be able to teach them any more because I will be having emergency changes and I will be going to another area. There is nothing super bad that is happing to cause these changes but I will be going there because the Lord wants me there, and also I'm almost pretty sure that I will be finishing my mission there and I will be finishing as zone leader. So my new companion is from Nicaragua and he will be finishing his mission in 4 weeks. haha another companion will be leaving the mission!

Well I don't have to much time but thanks for the emails! and have a great week!
