hey everyone!
i always have the hardest times coming up with subject lines for my emails but i dont think anyone really cares about those anyway. well this week was pretty rough. we had a hard time finding people to teach. but well had a good sunday. we had 8 investigators at church and should be having 4 baptisms this coming sunday after stake conference. really the Lord blesses those that love and serve Him. all that we have to do is have a good mind and heart about the work and never get discouraged. although that really is easier said than actually done. i know without a doubt that this work which i am a part of is true.

i am glad for the family that will be getting baptized into the restored church this week. they have made so many changes in their lives its amazing! i am glad that i have been able to teach them what i know to be true.

there are a lot of things that i am still trying to figure out about the church for myself but what i know without a doubt that is true is that jesus christ is the son of God and that he died for our sins. if we are faithful and obedient to his commandments (which are to have faith, repent, be baptized and receive the holy ghost in his restored church) we will be saved. i know that in the coming months because of the election a lot of things about the church will come out in the news and elsewhere. just know that many of those things are false. all we say and do and believe in is in Jesus Christ.

i love you all. and hope you have a good week.

Hi everyone I hope you all have a great Valentine's day tomorrow. I love you all! Well this past week was pretty wet and cold. I am really lucky that I have not gotten sick yet because as you know I am pretty miserable when I get sick. But anyway we had two days of just training from pretty much 8am to 5pm Thursday and Friday and well that took up a lot of our days. So we were not able to find a lot of people to teach but the ones we have are still doing awesome. We should baptize 4 people by the end of this month! We are already teaching 2 other people for the month of March. God really is blessing us. I dont know how long I am going to stay in the area but I am having the most success and learning the most here than anywhere else.

Well Elder O----- had to go home and that was really rough for me. He should be coming back within this year though so that should be good to see him again and hopefully work with him as well. My companion is still struggling a bit but well all I can do is pick him up and give him some encouraging words.

Nothing new is going on. The new Elder in the apartment is a pretty cool kid he was serving in Monterrey East before this and he was actually in Reynosa for a while so that's cool.

Everyone that we are teaching is progressing well. By the end of the month we should have a marriage and then the baptism of the whole family.

I really know that this is the Lord's work and glory. I am grateful to be here as a missionary of this the Lord's restored Church.

hey everyone!

it seems like i say it every week but this week just went by really fast. my companion is really struggle emotionally and with his spanish and there really isnt much for me to do but to stand by him and help him as much as i can.

well the e---- family will have to wait until the end of the month to be married because e---- has to get his id card but he cant do that until the last week of feb.

well i am running out of time. but i am doing good. time is just flying really fast and i dont want it to go to waste. i know that i am giving this time to the Lord and that is what is most important to me.

i love you all and hope you are doing well!
