It's Time for ....a CHANGE!!!


IT’S TIME FOR….
Familia G - getting baptized tonight!
A CHANGE! Yep the rumors are true I´m going to get transferred tomorrow and I am really kind of nervous because I don´t want a different companion. It´s weird to think that I am leaving San Pedro and saying goodbye to everyone kind of sucks but it has to happen right? Well the best part of this week will be today...THE G FAMILY IS GETTING BAPTIZED! woohoo! Their baptism was supposed to be Sunday but asked if we could do it today since I´m leaving so we have a baptism tonight!
so this week wasn't the best. It was a little bit more of a trail than the rest but we got through it alive and well and ready to do better this week! Starting it off with a baptism tonight! The G family is getting baptized and I am so happy for them! It´s always good to baptize but it´s a completely different feeling when it´s a family because you know you are helping them toward the goal of getting sealed in the temple! They are such a great family and already love the gospel. They´ve been receiving a little bit of problems with their neighbors but they are really strong and they know that what they have felt is really from God. They are seriously a golden family and I am so happy that I had the opportunity to teach them! Everything we teach they are willing to do. It´s been a great experience for me to be a part of their lives and help them on the path toward eternal life.
We couldn´t get in contact with H or MJ this week. Apparently MJ  went to work in Escuintla and H  just seems to be dodging us. He is having problems with the word of wisdom again so that´s not good.
We went to visit N and H but their mom isn´t going to give them permission to be baptized right now. We just need to keep praying hard for them so M will let them be baptized. The teachers in N´s school aren´t supporting her anymore since she wants to be baptized so she had to get a job to pay for school. She´s really strong..it´s amazing.
Branch Presidency's family
On Saturday we had an area attack which went really well and we got lots of references from that so now we just have to contact them all. An area attack is when all the missionaries in the district go to one area to contact.

We taught J twice this week. Once during the week and the other time after church..SHE CAME TO CHURCH! ahh man. That was such a miracle. Out of all the missionaries that have taught her family she finally told us she is ready to be baptized. She is great and already knows more than most of our members because she has been reading like 5 pages of the Book of Mormon every day. She´s already in Alma. The night that we taught her after church was really interesting...we were outside sitting around the patio table and her daughter S was babysitting two little neighbor boys and one (that was about 2) went under the table and was under there for a really long time and when we looked...HE WAS POOPING! haha it was hilarious and stinky.
The other miracle is that L came to church! She told us she wanted to be baptized too! Man that was huge for us. This is the first time she has been really sincere about being baptized! That was awesome.


Yesterday we went to lunch with the Gainors at a burger place. I´m sending a box of stuff home with Ian so you´ll have to get that somehow haha. The red tie is for dad and the yellow one is for mike. You guys can fight between the other two haha. We also had a family night with some members and The G family. They are really excited for today!
How is orientation? School starts next week? Don´t forget that your job this fall is send me news about football.
Well I love you lots and I hope you have a great week this week! LOVE YOU and I´ll let you know all about transfers next week!
