hello family. so i found out im a terrible father haha mi hijo already went home :( it was super rough he told me about how his parents forced him to come out here and then he got sick out here too so we couldnt leave the house for a couple days and yeah it was a real mess haha but im really actually proud of him because he had a whole lot going on that i cant really explain but im sure he is gonna come back out in the field if they let him.
but yeah so now i have another mexican companion... FINALLY!!!!! haha oh my gosh my spanish has been struggling with only americans haha cuz i cant ask questions about the grammar and what not. but yeah his name is Elder Zuvire. he is way cool and is really excited about the work. he is a newbie too he{s only got about 2 months in the mission.
but yeah i dont know why i havent told you guys about the Loya family but i just remembered and you guys gotta hear about them. so with Elder Hurtado here in Saucillo we went to get food from the street....cuz that is where the best stuff is at.. and we bought these burritos from this shack and Elder Hurtado got sick haha real bad like he went to the bathroom like 4 times that night and then another 3 in the morning haha but yeah so we were teaching a lesson and then he told me "we have got to go right now" haha so we booked it to the gas station and he went to the bathroom and while i was waiting outside one of the workers came over and threw something in the trash where i was at. and so i started talkin to him and stuff and then i put a date for when we could pass by his house haha. so we went over and his wife loves it all!! and the family lived in arizona for a while too so all the kids know english, the parents understand it but cant speak it, but yeah the kids are 19 17 14 and 10 years old and all of them have felt the spirit and everything. and one of the friends of one of the sons asked us (cuz he listens to the chats too) if he could serve a mission if he gets baptized haha how sweet!? this family is way cool and actually tomorrow we are gonna go and try to put a baptismal date for them, we already had one but they didnt go to church :( but yeah im super excited for them and the son is way cool thats my age i would totally hang out with him haha actually one of our pdays they invited us over for a bbq but there is not enough time during the day haha but yeah Mario is doing so good he is reading a ton and studying a bunch too. he is totally gonna be the next branch pres haha.
OHHH rachel and todd congratulations,, rachel if you keep the baby in just a little bit longer (about a year) i would really appreciate it haha i wanna see it the first day haha
actually the first full day me and Elder zuvire had together we were contacting in the street and i saw this lady carrying a ton of stuff so we went over and helped her and when we got to her house she invited us in to see her first grandchild haha so we went in and this kid was brand spankin new like i think 3 days out of the oven haha but what was super cool was to feel the spirit in that room just with all the love the mom and dad and grandma had for that baby and when we talked about the plan of salvation. for real we could have invited them to be baptized with out even teaching them anything haha and they would have accepted that is how strong the spirit was.. way cool!!!
but yeah the work here is great right now i am focusing on having more faith. that is what i love about the gospel, there is always room for improvement. we can never say ahhh ive got enough faith haha but we can increase our faith until we have enough that Jesus Christ Himself cant help but show himself to us like with the brother of Jared!! can you imagine?
well i love you guys all so much and thank you for all that you do. you should have someone translate the letter from the president and then follow what it says. it would help me out alot.
Thanks family, I Love you
