This week was really good. I now am
twenty and I am stuffed – like I am getting fat in this area. The area is
really awesome and I love the members.

We went to the temple Wednesday and
had a really good experience. It was really spiritual. And then my birthday was
so good. I got all of your cards and the
members from our area gave me a great lunch and then a lot of cake. Different members from this area gave me four
cakes. Then in the night a member from
my old area, the family Abaca, called our phone. They drove that big rainbow
cake an hour to give it to me on my birthday.
But that was really good and then after that we went and ate a ton of
cake. We have an investigator called Fernanda that is getting married the 27th.
WE ARE MARRYING THEM so she can get baptized. So next Tuesday I will send
pictures.
But the highlight of my week was Sunday
when I was pulled out of the third hour because we had a visitor. To my amazement
Hermana Rosa from my old area brought me a cake. She is a recent convert of my old area that is
like 65, and we became good friends. She is really poor, but bought me a huge
cake from a store and then rode an hour and a half in a city bus to bring it to
me for surprise. She said to me "I will never forget you and you better
not forget about me!" I returned to priesthood and cried a lot in the back
row haha, Which is something that I have
never done in my mission. I used to feel a little bad about not baptizing that
many people in my other area, but now i can realize that the work I did was
important to help those people keep progressing and that It was the plan that heavenly
father had for me. I’m so grateful that I was used to help change people’s life
for the better. What a great week. See
you all next Tuesday.
Love you all.
