Saludos de la Republica,

This week went by fast, we had a good week found a lot of new people to teach. We are completely full for the next three days with appointments. We have two people with baptismal dates right now. Juan and Estephani for the 23 of this month. Juan is 29 and a good guy he is already living all the commandments before we taught him anything and that is weird in this country. He is a little nervous for his baptismal date but we are working with him and letting the spirit work within him. Estephani is a little nervous too but she is way cool and she also is already living the commandments she is 19. We are teaching her family too a family of 7. but as of right now she is the only one that is ready we are going to keep working with her family so they can receive the blessings that come from this gospel.

Last Monday when we left the internet place we left to a tropical storm. It was crazy how much rain was coming down. By the time we got home it was as if we had jumped in the river with all of our clothes on.we had to walk through water past our ankles to make it to our house. We also couldnt leave the house after cause it was raining the rest of the night. I have some pictures but this computer wont recognize my camera so i cant download them this week.

I havent met Pres. Hernandez yet but  we have interviews with him this Thursday so we will meet him there. My comp went to a meeting with him and said he was a great guy and very relaxed and easy going which is different from our last pres. I dont think he speaks very much english which will be hard for the new americans coming in who dont speak spanish. I am glad that i got  here when we had a pres. That spoke english.

Well that is all from the republica. I hope all is going well with all of you. Stay strong in the faith and give thanks for our many blessings which we have. Thank you all for your support. Love you all so much.

Con Amor,

Elder Holmes
