Photos.................................Not yet

Back to Mom's q's:

So now that your responsiblities have changed, what is a typical day like for you?
Have you had any transferes or changes?
What are the wards like in this new area?

Sorry for the pictures no excuses but the internet did go out so we
lost like 15 minutes. But ya know how it goes there is no time for
anything this week is a little hecktic becuase I am training again.
With all that I forgot my memory so.... No picture this week either.
Well ya I remember those days but its all good. I would imagen that
Dad is going to baptise Angela. This week was a little full with a
bunch of meeting and reunions and I have the awesome chanse to train
again a second kid and everything. Being a trainer and district leader
You basically have to do everthing perfect its not easy but it sure is
worth it. The ward is great all the members love us and are willing to
take part in the work. We will have a great week this week. My
companions name is Elder Paguada he is from Honduras and has a great
testimony and loves to work and help others. Thankyou mom for
everything Love you And have a great week.


Letter 2 Dad:
What a world. That is pretty cool about Mitt Romney. So did Brandon
say anything in specifics about the papers? Soo......... What are you
guys thinking about on coming down to Guatemala I know the answer but
it really is beautiful down here. Now that I mention it I really
havent been to many historic sites I gotta start having actual Pdays.
President Utchdorf( super hard for the people here to say) did not
make it personally to any mission funcion or anything like that. I
heard that Elder Nelson Did meet somje missionaries in the CCM. That
would have been cool. This week we ae going to work hard 1. Why not?
2. We have a ton of meeting so we have to make up. 3. I am training
again so I got to show my hijo how it is done. Well tell everone I say
hi and everything is great here south of the border. Alright thankyou
dad for the love and support. I love you and hope you have an awesome
week.

Photo drought close to end

Mom's Q's:

No Q's from Mom.

Why did Adriana get knee surgery? Sorry about the pics I will get on that today. Well if I could ask for something ot would be the shoes just the same one that are used for proselyting. music would be cool more of mo tab would do great. Onr thing is if you can find a padometer (The thing that measures your steps) that would be sweet. Oh! i just remembers online I dant know where but its there you can find a place where the make little preach my gospels they are little pocket sized. If you can find it and get it I need 2 because an other elder wants one too. He will pay me later. Alright love you mam and I am going right now for the photos.

Dad's note:
We have 190 and one more week to go! thanks for the prayers. this week we have been working hard. I did get the news I am training again. Everyonr says that seals the deal after these two changes I will be zone leader. ITs nothing impotant to me (zl) but training is fantastic. But that can wait here we are trying to get a ton of baptisms more in feburary. With time I am trying not to think about I know it will ne great but everthing in the lords time. Alright love you Dad i am going to try to wnd the photo draught.

Spiritual moment?

3 day weekends are great. Great to hear about how you got some rest. Well sorry to hear that aunt frieda isnt doing great what ever be the Lord´s will may she get better. well this week was great we had some people in church and the numbers did go down a little but upon studying a talk on success and and enthusiasm I just gotta keep working love you mom SOORRY but I am out of time

Advice for Dad:
Well Angela is good and healthy it sounds. Well hopfully in these coming weeks things can calm dwn for you guys. That is not we want down here we are at 97 set in stone and have 144 set dates for baptism. We are pumed. And the thing is here in barcenas we have 8 more in feburary so things aint slowng down. We actually have 2 for janurary So we are going to put in our part. Well one thing about this week is a missionary in the district gave me a book of mormon in french le livre de mormon. I think I will study a little. Well thanks for the update I did see that LSU and Alabama were going at it I didnt see any action but that is another world. Thankou for everything ave a great week.

New Year / New Post

Mom's New Year q's:

How has it been getting back to work with things being back to normal?
Tell us about your baptisms that you had?
How do you like your new area now?
How are you doing with the new responsibilities as DL?
How are you getting along with the missionaries that you are over?
What do you like best about this area you are in?

The work is great we always have opportunities to wok and keep going. The baptism was great her husband is already a member so they are going to get sealed in temple in a year or so. IT was pretty sweet to have a baptism in the new year.The area is still great the members are really supportive and we always have worrk to do it is great. The responsabilties are pretty basic its just to look after the missionaries here we are to compaƱionships in 1 ward it is not too common but it is a blast. Everytone in the district is great w eget along because its a small district. Well areas dont really change just the missionaries and there willingness to work and work hard. So we are doing that here in BARCENAS. THe only difference really is it is a little mountainoues and there is a Walmart. There isnt much time today but I will send some pictures soon. I love you guys alot take care and I will right next week (with some pictures).

Update to Dad:
Ah man I remember her still a little. I will keep her in the prayers. That is great news about Kenyon sounds like he is really doing great. The goal with all the set dates and actuals we have got 177 some thing like that. Here we are pushing the limit with all the work and to put in our part. I aswell do not have much time but the work continues. I lobe you dad and hope you have a little luck with the date changing.
