Hey family!!!!!
Well, after an AWESOME WEEK, and CONFERENCE, I can pretty much say, my life is AWESOME!!!!
Oh, and THE FAMILY GOT BAPTIZED!!!!!!!! ALL 5 OF THEM!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh I felt so happy!!!!!!! 3 of them asked me to baptize them(all the girls.....). It was such an honor. I don't have my camera with me, I'll send the pics next week.
And the person that I baptized the week before bore her testimony, and she cried. I just can't believe the Lord has blessed me so much! I mean seriously, what did I do to deserve so many blessings? I just know the Lord sent me here with this purpose. I am sooooo glad.
Alex and I prepared 2 special numbers for this baptism. And they were amazing, as normal...:P
So yeah, and these people that have been baptized recently are giving us more references, so yeah, we still got stuff to do.
But yeah, and the mission prez wrote me saying how great of a missionary I am, a little ego boost there too....
So....yup, life's pretty much awesome, continuing going along, working....
Oh, and daylight savings, I am NOT A FAN!!!!!! I have had 2 bad night's sleep in a ROW because of that stupid change in clock. Dang Franklin.......
But yeah, I thank God that I have been sent here at this time, because he knew I was needed here. That's what my patriarchal blessing says. Right now in Escarcega I have 12 baptisms.
And the branch is sooo happy with our efforts here. They said that an entire family being baptized has not happened here since they can remember. But yeah, a complete family being baptized. It is the missionary's dream. I love them sooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!! But yeah, I really can't find the words to say.
Oh, and all the talks in conference about kids did make me kinda want to get married.....haha, no I still got a lot of time before that happens.
But yeah, in the mission you really grow to appreciate the gospel and what it does, and more importantly what it helps us avoid. I see that every day here in Mexico. YOu have no idea how many lives and marriages that have been destroyed for alchohol, sex in the wrong circumstances, or just not living faithful to the gospel. We really do live better lives.
As one of the talks in general conference said, you can be active in the church and inactive in the gospel, and we really need to be active in both.
Well, I have a little more time so keep writing me!!!!
Love you all!!!!
