Hows it going fam! We had a pretty good week out here! The highlight was the baptism of Wilson! This last week we couldnt find him till thursday he kind of like disappeared but we found him and he was excited for the baptism for this saturday so we did his interview friday, and saturday got baptized. We only found him 3 weeks ago, but he was prepared to get baptized! So the rest of the week was pretty normal, the heat is starting to pick up here, so we are gonna be suffering soon, this littile city is about the hottest city in Bolivia, and its suppper humid so its even worse. But this littile city is honestly super awesome, Im loving it here. The time is going by way too fast, today i complete 20 months in the mission which I honestly don´t like to think about, but I´m gonna be running to end so don´t worry fam I ain´t trunky! Miss and love you all! Grateful for the gospel in my life, I know its true and that it is our guidemap to happiness and our Heavenly Father! Chau!

Hey fam! So this was week had its ups and downs as always haha. So we´ve been preparing some people to get baptized and well I´ll explain their progress. So this saturday we are hoping that Wilson gets baptized. He is 17 years old and he´s been progressing pretty well, he´s been coming to the church these last couple weeks, reading the Book of Mormon, and praying. So we are praying that he will be make the decision to get baptized. We have this other kid called Luis that had a baptism date for this saturday, but he didn´t go to the church yesterday, so he stills needs to go to church one more time to be able to get baptized, so we are hoping he gets baptized next week. Then we have this other kid called Fernando who also had a baptism date for this saturday but he had to travel this week. So we had been teaching the commandments to him this week, and this friday he told us that he wasn´t gonna be able to get baptized because he cant keep the commandments, then we explained about blessings of comfort, and he wanted us to give him a blessing of comfort. So we gave a blessing and after he said he just felt a lot of peace and tranquility, and started to explain that he will strive to all the commandments so he left for a week for vacation, so next week we are hoping that he will be ready to be baptized. Well those are a few of the people we are teaching right now. So besides that everything else is going good. I have honestly never been happier in my life, this work is so incredible. I love seeing the change that the gospel of Jesus Christ brings to other people and in myself. Love and miss you all!

Well a pretty good week out here, so alot of our investigators are progressing pretty well. This week we had a pretty cool miracle. So we started a fast saturday afternoon, and then we went to go visit an investigator that we had found 2 days before and we got there and then we started to explain to us how he had read the pamphlet and the Book of Mormon, had prayed to god and received his answer about the truthfulness of Joseph Smith and the church! He then accepted to get baptized the 25 of August so we´ll be helping him get prepared in 2 weeks. So that strengthened my testimony alot about the power of fasting! So that was the big miracle of this week. We are also helping a few other people for the 25 of August. An other kid called Wilson he´s been coming to church but we havent been able to teach him much this last week, but Im confident that he´ll get baptized. Then we have Amelia who´s been investigating the church for about a year but she´s recently gotten alot more excited to get baptized, so please pray for them!! So this little town im in right now is the hottest city in this country literally, but we have been in winter for these last few months but its starting to heat up again and man its hott and everyone says that its nothing yet, so please pray for that too, that I dont melt. Well everythings going good out here. Love yall!!

Hey fam whats up!! So this week was tranfer week but my comp and I are staying together for anther transfer! We get along really well, so it should be another good transfer. After this transfer I only have 2 more, so yeah the time is going by way too fast haha. So the highlight of this week s the baptism of Brissa! We found her a few weeks ago, and this saturday she was able to finally get baptized! She had talked to the elders before, but a few weeks ago we had found her in the area book and contacted her and she was ready this time! So that was pretty cool. We had a few people that we were preparing to get baptized these next 2 weeks but their baptism dates fell, so our next planned baptism is in about 3 weeks for the 25 of August, we have some really good investigators that will get baptized that day. Well hope all yall are good back in states, have fun in school those who are about to start haha.
