He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. - John 21:17

Good Week, Good Week

So the district has me, Elder Chavez, Sisters Valdez and Sister H, (her name is German and super hard to spell), Elder Walgstaff, and Elder Enfield. The ward is amazing and it's great to be back in Spanish culture. 

This last week we had a mission wide leadership meeting and my comp was asked to come with me and we were asked at the meeting to share some stuff so that was nerve wracking to do in front of Prez. but super fun! In the meeting President gave us some new commandments for the mission and they were so awesome! One thing that was a super simple commitment but with huge blessing is to tract for one hour everyday in the evenings. This has lead to some awesome miracles. 

Just one example since I'm short on time as always. Yesterday we spent our last hour of the night tracking. With about two minutes to go after having a Catholic lady try and trap us at her door and not let us go, we hadn't seen much for our efforts. Our previous plans had been changed since a few hours earlier after leaving a meal appointment we walked out to a flat tire on my bike. So we thought well God must have some big plans for  us near here instead. Well back to those last two minutes of the night, I turned to ask my comp and asked, should we knock this one last door? The light is on. And he responded: what else do we have to lose? So we knocked it and well a guy walks out and says I know you guys! I've seen you guys at so and so's house. Well turns out he is a friend of a member who had been wanting to go to church just didn't know what time it started. So we taught him and invited him to be baptized. Well he more than excepted the invitation. And now Miguel is on his way to salvation! 


That has been the basic theme of this week it has been incredible! For y'all to know Aracely is someone we started working with when I got here and she is just an angel! She gave up coffee for good and she and her granddaughter were baptized the same day by the father and son!:) I love you all the work is great here, hope its going well with y'all too. The Book is blue, the Restoration is true, and I'm on a mission! Love y'all!

Gripped my shake too hard at Whattaburger!
