Week 97: One Month Left!

Hey my friends and fam!!

Man, life keeps on chuggin!! I'm super happy and just trying to enjoy the last few weeks. Sometimes Satan tries to convince me that I'm tired or that I need a break or that I'm justified to wind down a little bit, but the key has just been to kick those thoughts out right when they get in!! Also, I think that I am gonna miss my mission a ton and so I better not waste a moment of these last few weeks! Gotta soak it all up and leave it all out on the field.

This week's highlights....

Went to the hospital like 3 times for my kid's leg problems, he's hurtin a lot and might have to go home, :/ I really hope not. We are praying for him and hes been a trooper!
I fell from a staircase and got scraped up, haha super clutzy.
I held a parrot and watched it drink oatmeal, haha.

Right now we have 3 progressing investigators that could be baptized in the first week of July. We are praying and working extra hard for them so that they can be saved!!!

This week I read a lot of the Liahona with the October 2016 conference talks and WOW that was a KILLER conference! I FULLY recommend it, especially these talks:

Am I Good Enough? Will I Make It? - Cornish
Abide in my Love - Christofferson
To Whom Shall We Go? - Ballard
Joy and Spiritual Survival - Nelson

Also... here is one of my fav vids for all of you fathers out there! Happy late Father's Day!

P.S. Sorry for not sending pics this week, we got hardcore robbed so I don't have my camera anymore but don't worry cuz it was super old and almost broken anyways.

Week 95: Last Transfer

Hey Folks!!! I hope life is good for you guys and you're enjoying summer! It's super cold around these parts right now, I don't appreciate it too much but oh well.

This week had some highlights!! We had a leaders mtng with the Area President (Elder Godoy). It was awesome! He's gonna be one of the presidents of the 70 in a few weeks. The meeting was really spiritual and he talked about receiving revelation for our districts and zones. It was really neat. Also, we had zone conference this week and district meeting on Friday so it was a really busy week going here and there. We didn't have too much time in our area and our numbers this week showed it. :/ We didn't have ANY investigators in church ysterday. It was a heartbreaker. But gotta remember that WE CAN'T GET DISCOURAGED cuz thats EXACTLY what Satan wants to happen, so we gotta put it in gear this week and find solutions and work even harder! We're wroking right now with 2 investigators named Jair and Marvin that should get baptized this month....praying for miracles!

Well, today we have transfers. I don't think they'll change me cuz this is my last transfer! Crazy stuff. Gotta stay strong till the end!

Love you all, have a great week.
