2 Almas màs!


WAZ UP MI FAMILIA! 




OH, let me tell you, this week was killer. BUT, all in all, WE HAD 2 SOULS ENTER INTO THE DOOR OF BAPTISM! WOOT! That´s right, Rubén and Katherin were both baptised Saturday at 3:00.  And it wasn´t easy.  We had problems left and right.  People were making changes to the program without telling us, the Stake President kept telling us that we had to finish by 3:30 (they had the Priesthood session at 4:00 for Stake Conference), Katherin didn´t show up for her interview the night before (problems), so we had to do the interview right before the baptism. Crazy!  But it was awesome, There was crying, and smiles and food! lol :)  I feel less stressed. 

But my crazy week did not stop there. That night we got a call from our zone leaders asking if we had kept the water in the baptismal font, 'cause there was going to be a baptism right after Stake Conference. This was good news.... minus the fact that we had drained the baptismal font (it takes 4 hours to fill), and we had just given the keys to the zone leaders of Posadas, one of whom lives pretty far away.  SOOOO... we had to make a couple of calls to borrow the keys from the Ward Executive Secretary, get to the church early to fill the font, and find clothes for the other baptism. Apparently all went well (honestly, I have no idea - I´m hoping it all went well ) :)

BUT, it still doesn´t end there.  We also have Zone Conference this week. It normally doesn´t add to the stress level, but since we are the Stake Center, they need the keys and information, and want us to pass by and verify some stuff. So... lot´s to do.   After tomorrow... I THINK I´ll be fine. :) 

I hit 15 Months on Saturday (the baptisms were a nice cumple mes gift).  I´m going to say it again, like I always do, Man, time flies by FAST!  3 1/2 months... weird.

We had the baby shower for Florencia (investigator, she changed her wedding date until after the baby is born (September 11) so that her mom can be here for the wedding), and Monica (our Gospel Principles teacher). It went really well, and they didn´t know a thing. It was really funny. :) We a lot of games. There is a picture of me doing... It´s not Pictionary (I think). Oh, I can´t remember the name of it. But it when you are trying to get them to guess the name. It was Car Seat. IN ENGLISH! It was hard, I was focusing on Veronica because she was studying to be a English teacher. She was so CLOSE, but, we didn´t get it. .... changos... 

I need a couple of things:  the address of the Daybreak house, and the name and address of the new Bishop (at Daybreak) - actually that is about it. 

I have to head, got to go get the keys to the Chapel for Zone Conference tomorrow (the Zone Leaders just called.). 

Love you tonz.  Be safe, Be smart, Trust in the Lord.  He knows what he is doing. :) 

I love this Gospel so much, and I'm glad I have the opportunity to participate in his work everyday of my life! (every member a missionary!)

Love you! 

Love love love
