1 year!

Hola a todos! Los quiero! What a week! It has been so hot! I feel as if I have gotten darker and more sunburned than ever before in my life! This whole week there has been a wind blowing from the south that makes it really hard to pedal our bicycles. I hate pedaling against the wind hahaha. But well the Lord has looked down upon us and smiled and has blessed us with a lot of people to teach! We are working with 3 families of 3 right now for a total of 9 investigators as well as with a single mom and her two daughters. 2 of the families and the single mom were able to make it to Church this weekend and it was amazing having so many people there. My companion was a bit overwhelmed and excited to have so many people at Church for the first time. Most of these people I can see taking that great step of baptism into the Lord's restored Church. I am glad that Heavenly Father trusts us with his prepared children. I know that I have so much to change still to receive all of the blessings he has in store for me. We had a baptism this past Saturday of someone that my companion had been working with for a while, and we should be having another baptism this Saturday as well. One of the families should be getting baptized by the end of the month. This past week I have been reflecting a ton on this past year! It's crazy to think it has been a year already. May 5th marked my year mark when I went to the temple to receive the endowment. (http://www.lds.org/church/temples?lang=eng ) I wish there was a temple nearby so I could relive that sacred ordinance but I am glad that I have a good memory for when I am feeling a bit sad I always replay my temple experience in my head. There are little things that I hear or see that instanly remind me of the temple. One of those things is the quiteness of the chapel during the administration of the sacrament. It feels awesome! I love feeling the Spirit in the simplest of things. Saturday will be my official year mark. I'm planning on bbqing a little bit for dinner after my companion and I finish planning and doing other things. Hopefully we get a chance too. Sunday is Mother's Day. I can't wait to call home. I should be doing that sometime after 6pm. More than likely after Church and all that. Well what more can I say? I love doing this work even though it is the most stressful and challenging thing I have ever done in my life.
