What a week. Definitely too much to fit in a typed email.
Mission-wise, this week the bommmb. We had 9 investigators at church yesterday, NINE. Also, from out staus last week we have 5 for baptismal dates that we put down this week. A large part of the less active members we visited came back and stayed all 3 hours! That almost never happens.
We're working with the parents of Brian (the chump that was baptized last last saturday). Brian has been just awesome since the baptism. Already, he's assisted the temple and passed the sacrament for his first time. Super content with Brian. But his parents, Hochey and Navidad, wanted to know a little more about the church and have been coming even since before me and Elder Ventura arrived here. So, we invited for baptism and they accepted! We also talked about the possibility of them getting married in month that is coming. They are super cool. And we placed dates for 3 other young chaps in our ward. 2 are brothers, and the other is a grandkid of the nicest old lady, Herita. Yeah, thats the short version of the week
Mangoes are at their prime. I love that I can drop a little less than 2 dollars (us) and have a bag full of mangoes. Like 8 I think is what I bought last time. I don't want to think of the day when leave the mangoes. I LIVE FOR THE MANGO
Today was awesome and long waited. Met up with some of my Dominican brothern, and sistern. Met up today with Elder Pedersen and Hermana Perry. We all went to the same high school and all recieved calls to serce here in RD. So, Zane and I surprised Ashlyn as they were coming down for lunch in the CCM. What a time. She's doing great with spanish and is super excited for the field. Zane is basically fluent and just rockin it.
Fantastic day, and to finish it off, we have a noche de hogar with a less active family and we're gonna make pizza!! Whoo whoop
Before I go, this was really important to me, and I'd like to share it with you - -
My superr smart dad sent me cds upon cds of general conference of years past; so, I've been listening to that during our lunchtime house time. AND, I found a talk that was stirring and inspiriting, that every single one of you must watch. It's a short 14 minute something talk, but is perfect to inspire the missionary that is within all of us.
So heres homework:
and has much relevance to spanish and latin missions so thats a plus ;)
Cuídense Mucho
