Buenas de la Republica.

 

Everything here is going well. Not too much happened this week. We had zone conference which was good. there is only one more week untill the end of transfers, so Grandpa you were right, this time next week I will know if i am going anywhere. I hope not but you never know. Elder Correa and I get along really well. He is a great missionary and a great teacher.  I hope i can stay with him for another transfer and learn more from him.

 

We are still working hard and hoping and praying to find success. We are teaching good people but not a lot of people, so we are really looking hard to find new people who are ready to hear the gospel. We do have a few new people that went to church and we will start teaching them week and hope everything goes well with that. We are still trying to work with Jon Carlos on being confident for baptism. He passed his interview and everything. He knows it is true but just doesnt know if he is ready or if he wants to make the decision to get baptized. It is hard to work with him when we only can see him once a  week and that is just sometimes. We didnt see him this week to really teach him, but we will continue to work with him and let the spirit work within him.

 

We are still teaching Gabriel and Gladys they are progressing. Gabriel is ready for baptism and is just waiting for the 4th of June or to see if his mom is ready before that. She is sick a lot of the time so it is hard for her to  concentrate on the lessons. so we pass by a lot to try to find her in good health to teach her. She still wants to know more about the gospel and is waiting for an answer to see if the church is true. She was talking with the JW´s so she thinks that she has to study the bible with us for years before she can get baptized, so we are working on that. We have a few others progressing but not very fastly so we are just teaching them and hoping that they will gain the desire to follow the desires of their souls.

 

Well that is about it for this week. I hope all is going well for everyone you are all in my prayers daily. Thank you all so much for everything. Have a great week Vayan con Dios.

 

con amor
