Hola Familia!!!!!
Como Estan?
Wade is the biggest miracle I have ever witnessed!!!!!!!!!!!! Let me tell you a little more about Wade. So last week I told you how he had an amazing experience at church...well that just continued into more awesomeness this week. We went out to dinner at a members restaurant (token, I will send a pic of the giant rack of ribs I got) and had a great discussion. The member we were with has had a very similar past like Wade and was perfect for him. That morning we weren't sure what we should talk about because plan of salvation is the next thing we were supposed to teach but he has problems with both the word of wisdom and law of chastity. We had prayed and prayed but couldn't feel right about anything so we made a little plan and went in prepared for all 3. Wade started to tell us about the changes he was making in his life. He used to grow marijuana and sell it and use it...well he told us he had cut it all down, gotten rid of it and wasn't going to have anymore. HOLY SMOKES!!! We hadn't even taught him the word of wisdom! The spirit had worked so hard in him he knew he needed to stop. That is a huge change let me just tell you. That was a source of income for him and something he has done since he was young!! So we got an answer to our prayers to teach him the word of wisdom. He committed to live it and told us how he is 100% willing to follow Gods will. He has felt to so much peace and happiness already he knows he wants it forever and it only comes through following God. So awesome. Then we spent most of the 4th with him as well with some other Elders and members. He is so kind and I have literally seen a change in him from the first night we met him. Right now he is figuring out to do with Sal, the mother of his 3 children and his girl friend. He is going to live the law of chastity he just doesn't know if he wants to marry her. We are praying for him to find the solution. As of right now he is preparing to be baptized and the 2cnd of August. I am just so happy for him that he now has this truth. Its the coolest thing to see someone change so much in just 2 weeks and be fully devoted to Savior!!

The bugs here in Minn. are crazy. They are driving me crazy!!!! Haha imagine being on Utah lake in the worst swarm but then timing that by ten and always being in it. That's what its like over here right now haha. With all the rain we have had I guess they are at a record high. Me and my companion combined probably take in about 100 bugs each day either through our nose, mouth or in our ears hahah just to give you a glimpse. However!!! I don't mind because being a missionary is the best ever and we are being so blessed :)
This week on the 4th we got to have p-day and work in the night. And it was such a crazy day!! We were making treats to bring to Wades to have a discussion and games and we had no time! We were running late and we had brownies in the oven, it was time to go and they had 11 minutes left. So I decided to take them out. Well when I took them out they were still liquid and half of the plan spilled out into the oven hahahahaha it was a mess! We had to turn the oven off and run out the door. All we could do was laugh and say we tried our best. The mission is full of all sorts of adventures and laughing at yourself.
We are being so blessed out here in St. Peter. Our investigators are doing great, we are finding a lot and I can see the Lords hand everyday.
Thank you for your continued support. I love you all, make it a great week!
Don't forget to remember our Savior Jesus Christ who suffered for us so that we could be free from sin and death! He is the reason for everything.
