Mom,
My week was good. We had a lot of success. We have two baptisms on Saturday. A mom and her daughter. I am going to be confirming the daughter which is scary bacause it is in Spanish. I've definately seen the same in my life. Satan wants to get us, especially when we are making the right decisions. I've seen it with our investigators too. But I love teaching them and being here preaching the gospel.We have quite a few other progressing investigators right now. We had 4 of 6 who said they would come to church show up. So that is exciting. There is only one chapel in our zone. There's over a hundred members though. We have lunch everyday at a members house. I'm scared to death of getting fat here. They feed us so much. And my companion won't run with me. It is just me and Elder M. now. We had emergency changes and the other Elder in our trio left. So I do a lot more talking and a lot more teaching. It's better this way because I have to talk in Spanish. I'm getting used to Ecuador. It is very different here. My Spanish is coming along. There is a lot I still have to learn though.
Dad said you guys were writing letters to me at the same time. He said you were balling so my letter from you was proabably gunna be good. haha made me laugh because I could picture it. Better not watch any psych without me. Tell all my brothers and sister to stay in line and do something fun.
My scripture for the week is Mosiah 23:21-22. Something that helped one of our investigators this week. He has to wait a year before he can be baptised. He has to get divorced and remarried. He is a true convert though. He has great faith, so it makes me sad because he is so prepared but he has to wait so long. Also Mosiah 24:9-16 is a great story. The church is true, Jesus Christ lives, Joseph Smith was a prophet of God called to restore the church in these latter days. Love and miss you Mom! Have a good week!
