Week 54

Well This transfer is coming to a close! I can´t believe 9 weeks have past and now having a new start will be a new adventure. We had a great week as a zone we ended off doing a big breakfast as a zone and it was the best. My district and I had the chance to prepare the food which was a clásico arroz, huevos, queso, tortilla,cebollas, y avena!! Were definitely are a family.

This past week we had a great lesson with the family Iparaguirre this week, they have been growing little by little and its a huge blessing. One thing my companion and I did was stick a paper above there TV and at their front door that says pray, read and attend church! So that they wont forget the little things in their life. 
The reason why we did that is because the week before they were very busy and they put there life first before God. When they did that they weren't so happy or they felt like they were missing something, So this week when we put the challenges up each visit we made they had done their part and there emotions were happy again! I can testify if we put God first and do the little things we will fell 100 percent better 10 out of 10 times!



Week 53

This week has been another great week full of many blessings. We had the opportunity to follow up with the family Iparaguirre and we had a great lesson with them. We focused more on the importance of the Sabbath day and obeying these commandments. Really was something special because the family is learning little by little and are starting to realize that there is more things important than the things of the world. We emphasized more on if we do the little things first, the bigger things will be a lot easier to achieve! I can testify that We need to do the little things first (pray, read, attend church) so that we can have the exact obedience and feel the love from our heavenly father!

Week 52

This week has been a crazy but great week full of many blessing. Its like a roller coaster with my companion though. We work hard everyday but we have our moments at times I don´t know why but I feel like my animos get taken away or maybe that's how I am. I know I  will work on it I just need to be patient with my companion. 

A huge blessing this week was that we had the chance to follow up with the family Iparaguirre, and the couple have two kids but are not married, so we had the chance to visit them and they felt the impression to tell us that they felt overwhelmed but in a good way meaning they didn´t know about the importance of this gospel until now (through their prayers and attending church, they found their answer) My Companion and I invited them to be married and we put a goal for the second of September and they accepted it. The next visit we had with the family Iparaguirre was with members and it was another powerful witness to see the members sharing there testimonies and how the gospel of Jesus Christ can bless us through our obedience, following his commandments, and acting through our faith. Its the secret ingredient to have a successful family. I know it to be true its the littlest acts that we do, We cant just do the big things before the small things! 

Week 51

Everything went well this week. A lot of blessings. My companion and I are working hard and in ways that we can find more success! I am grateful to have these challenges in my life so I can find out how we can bring this message to all

Fue un poco loco por que tuvimos que mudarnos con los lideres de zona y mi distrito jaja. Lo que pasó fue que mi compañero y yo no tenemos habitación hasta el primer día de agosto.. jaja las bendiciones.. no? jaja pero en realidad sí fue bueno por que les encontramos una familia en la noche este domingo pasada.!! Pucha no hay tanto parejas que son casadas pero ellos se casaron hace tres años y es una milagro por que tienen deseo para cambiar! Esperamos que podemos ayudarles para acercarse mas a jesucristo. Otro fue durante sacramental cuando una familia han venido por el primer vez!!! Me puso feliz por que ellos fueron a la capilla sin aconpeñantes! Esta semana fue lo maximo para mí un gran bendicion que nuestro padre celstial esta en nuestros lados para siempr


Week 50

Well this week has been a great week full of many blessings! 
My companion and I have been working and putting all our strengths to bless the people. We have had two big miracles this week and they are both families that want to be baptized. The first family is called family Iparaguirre and we had been teaching them all week and we had invited them to a family home evening which they came! It really was a blessing and the parents have been reading, praying to know if this church is true! It made my companion and I super happy to see them grow! Another family Jose and Betty have been building a testimony as well, We have been helping them with their marriage because they technically aren't married! They finally have accepted a date so we will be helping them on this journey as well! Honestly has been a crazy week with a lot of support from everyone and we are so lucky to have this opportunity. The first pic is my district and we played soccer at 6 in the morning and then the next is the family Iparaguirre!!


Week 49

Well this week has been another roller coaster, honestly didn´t think I would have this many challenges this transfer. It's definitely been a harder week. One thing that our Mission President has told us that this is your mission.. its the mission of the lord.. Its his time and My companion and I have been applying his words this round in this transfer. 

One blessing this week that happened is that we had the opportunity to finish painting the gate of our converts house, and then we started sanding the rails of the stairs. It definitely was a blessing because she has been going through a hard time with her family. There is 10 of them in the family and 2 are members. One is living with his family in another city and 7 is living together in a house and our convert is the one living with the 7 others. so its tough for (Norma) because there are always controversies and tough times and challenges with her and the rest of the  family, We were really grateful for the opportunity to do service for them






Week 48


Well this week has been a crazy week full of many blessings with a ton of rough moments. As for my rejections are what is tough because my companion and I just want 10 15 minutes to share something with their families about how this gospel will bless you and their families. Honestly it was a roller coaster of a week. As for the weather it’s a humid cold so I can definitely feel it to my bones. But I can definitely tell you something that God is always with you and loves you. On Sunday my companion and I were walking around our area limits to talk with others and we ended up finding a father name Pedro Rojas and he just wants what’s best for his daughters and his wife and when we came we had the opportunity to teach him and seeing the smile on his face made my companion and I feel so happy because we know that families can live forever with God. I have a strong testimony about that because I know if we make our covenants with God we will live for eternity with our families. Pray for him and his family my companion and I would love it..
