Hey everyone! Well first just want to throw a shout out to my my dads haha. Thanks for all you do for me and the examples you have set for me and have lead me in the right path. Showing me the way to learn and for setting the example for both serving missions and giving me the chance to experience what you have experienced. I am really grateful for that and now to be out here serving a mission just like you guys did and you have taught me how to become a better missionary and a better person and a better father and husband one day! (Well still got a while till that happens haha don't worry) But i really appreciate you guys and for being worthy priesthood holder and to use your priesthood. Thanks again for all you do! and and other dads out there that might get this email what a wonderful example you all all for your kids.
Well this week went pretty well we were able to accomplish a lot of our goals and we got two more baptismal dates. We also finally had a ward activity that went really well that we had like 5 investigators go to. I feel like that ward is now gaining trust of me and my companion now. They had some issues before with the older missionaries so we are really starting to work with them a lot and go through them to get new investigators and to get them to help with investigators. Like this week my favorite member named Edgar came with us to our investigator Jacob. Man Edgar taught the whole lesson, it has been hard for Jacob to open up to us. But Edgar had him wrapped around his hands and Jacob just let it go and talked and expressed his concerns. I have faith that in not that long he will get baptized. They just need to get married first and they are not going to do it till like September so that is a little frustrating. We have a family night with them today and Edgar and his family are coming. We went to Edgars house last night and he taught us for like 2 hours how to become better teachers and how to teach to Mexicans it was really good i learned a lot.
Man i just am really happy now i have never felt this kind of happiness in my life. Serving others there is no other thing like it, you just get this such good feeling. I am just really lucky to be out here, and to be serving the lord. I love the book of Mormon is so true, i love this church and i love you all thanks for all that you do for me and i hope this week goes good for you love you so much. Peace
