Yeah so this week was a little tough becasue we lost our phone and so we couldnt really get ahold of like any of our investigators this week and so 6 of our dates that investigators had fell because they didnt come to church. That continues to be our biggest problem here is geting the investigators to understand the doctrine of the sabbath day and to come to church so that will be a focus of us this week. So also in general its been rough recently but man we have seen a ton of miracles. We knocked this door and this lady like 25 years old came out and we started to contact her and then Holy Ghost, as clear as daylight, put in my mind that i need to ask why she thought there were so many churchs today. She then proceded to say she had been wondering that a ton and no one has been able to answer her question, so we briefly explained the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and gave her a BoM and it was just a cool experience seeing the Holy Ghost guiding us in the work. So that was one of the many miracles we see this week. So alot of our progressing investigators have stopped rpogressing so right now we are in the process of finding new people that are prepared. There a tonnnnn of people that want to get baptized but they dont want to put in the preparation so we will probably be dropping a ton of people soon, but the good thing is there a tonn of people that are ready to put in practice the Gospel of Jesus Christ in their lives. Well love and miss you all fam!

Yeah well family a pretty normal week over here. We´ve been finding some really good people this week and we`ve been able to put a ton of baptism dates recently so we should be seeing some fruits of our work soon. One thing we`ve been trying to improve on alot is inviting the people to be baptized in the first lesson and its pretty cool to see that mostly everyone wants to be baptized how Jesus Christ was baptized, the hard thing is preparing them so they are ready haha. So I`ve been thinking about the importance the mission is having on me and Ive been reading parts of my journal in the Mtc and first part of my mission and its honestly insane to see how much ive changed and madured obviously Im still little old tate but man the mission has helped me develop so many attributes of Christ and the cool thing i still have a ton of time left!! well not too much but a good amount haha. But Im just super happy being in the mission couldnt imagine being anywhere else honestly. Love and miss you all until the next!!!

Well fam pretty chill week not too much to report. I got to know the area pretty, my comp and well pretty much everything. Man the street food is really freaking good in this area so pray for me that i wont die haha. So yeah in our area we have a ton of super good people ready to get baptized but everyones challenge here is coming to church, its even really close. We passed by all of our investigators sunday before church and they were all sleeping so we are gonna have to hide alarm clocks in their rooms sunday i think. But the one kid that came to church is Mauricio. Hes 19 and has a date for the 5th of May. Honestly he was hungover when he came to church because when we went to pick him he told us how he wants to change and well he came to church so thats him showing that he wants to change. So ill keep yall updated on him. Uhh so we have also been teaching this 15 year old called Michael thats super dope too. Hes super mature and we met his mom this week and she was telling us how she wants to get baptized too and her son soo they are progressing pretty well too. Well all is going good, my comp for only having 7 months speaks pretty spanish so thats cool, well id love to hear how yall are doing too! haha chau to all!
