Week 28 (March 23)

 Hey family!

    

     So this week was fantastic. We had the opportunity to hear from an Apostle and to hear from a member of the seventy. I can't believe how much I learned and all the little things that I need to do to have more success in this area. I am grateful for the time that Elder Anderson took out of his week to come to Guatemala and talk to us. Every missionary got to shake his hand! It was fun also to be able to go into the capital for the day, even though it was hot there too...

     So this month has been getting hotter and today was around 97 and yesterday was 98. I still feel like I am at home!;) well I mean, other than speaking a different language with a lot darker people, but the weather feels like it haha! This week has been great though! I can't wait to start seeing these blessings that we have received grow into people that love the gospel and live it everyday.

     So we have a fecha for this weekend, and I just hope that he will be completely prepared for the day! We will have about 4 baptisms in our ward with the other set of missionaries, but we also have 3 other fechas! We have two for the 11th that want to be baptized and are now ready, we just have to keep them reading and learning from the Book of Mormon and also attend church at least one more time before the 11th. I hope they attend the next two Sundays to show themselves that it is a change in lifestyle, not just a change in thoughts, but it's the best change we can make in our lifes! Maybe some people that read this might not be members and are probably thinking why do they always want to talk about religion or invite us to church or activities? Well it comes down to it, that WE, ourselves, have made these changes and have seen the blessings in our lives. We have seen how this has helped our life and we invite everyone to just see for themselves, to attend church, take the missionary lessons, read the Book of Mormon, and see what we believe instead of asking others or believing the internet.

     So also this week we went to the castle that is about 3 hours away from our house and we woke up at 4 to get ready and leave by 5. it was a long morning but we got there and I thought it was worth it! It was awesome to see this castle and to be there in all American clothing! Haha, we are just a little patriotic;) Well I got to go! I hope everyone is doing good!

Y les quiero!
