Transfers Are In

Well this Sunday was just about the best Sunday of my mission thus far! To start off, I had amazing studies from the Book of Mormon, then we had the best ward council meeting ever complete with breakfast at Bishop's house. Then we headed to the Spanish ward and we confirmed some peeps! Then I sat down and on my right was the Fuentes fam looking great with Brother Fuentes all white shirt and tie ready to go, Karim next to them, Fuentes in front, and Ayala families behind me. We are helping them get rolling to the temple. Briones next to me and Brother Briones was in a new suit looking great and the Bishop invited him to go up and bear his testimony, he is another miracle story. The ward has been trying to work with him for more than 20 yrs and gotten nowhere and we were blessed to be a part of helping him and the Lord has touched his heart - now him and his wife are going to be sealed in the coming two or three months! There were other recent converts sitting around us and wow it was a great great meeting! Follow that up with Sharyland ward and the speakers are the whole Caudillo fam and they did sooooo amazing! They all have callings and are going to the temple and are reading the BoM at 5am as a fam and doing this and that and they're just on fire! They should be sealed soon as well! They're thinking in August, also in two weeks they are going to be going to do baptisms for the ancestors in the temple. Then I got to teach gospel principles and it was wonderful - recently the members have all been sneaking out of gospel doctrine and into gospel principles and so we meet in the chapel and the class was packed and one brother came up after to talk to me and gave me the nicest complement in the world. then we had combined third hour and Bishop gave a great lesson about having miracles in our lives. 

There were several baptisms in both wards after church and the zone did wonderful this month! I've been in a number of zones to hit their goal but never in one to pass it and that's what the zone did this month and it was so wonderful! I felt full of joy like in Alma 29. President was at the baptisms and dropped the bomb early and told me I was his new assistant. That threw off our plans and then we visited people the rest of the day. All and all this area has been amazing and I've met so many people I've come to love. I'm still staying in the stake though hahaha, Probs at the end of this next area I will have been in this stake for 9 transfers! Life is great the work is alive and I know it's all God's work and glory. I'm loving being here and God is getting really excited with the valley great things are starting to happen everywhere! Love y'all and take care!
