Los Testimonios de Conversos Son Instrumentos Para Todos

Hola Familia! 

I hope all is well back in the casa and that you all enjoyed conference weekend just as much as I did. It was amazing to be able to hear from the prophet and leaders of the church. They are inspired men of God and I encourage you all to read, study, ponder and pray about the words they shared!! They will lead us to happiness and an easier path while here in this earthly life!

This week Hermano Pablo Maldonado River was baptized! Yay! It is always amazing to be a part of a conversion to the gospel and a start of a new spiritual journey! His service was very beautiful and even better because it was in Spanish! :) My very favorite part was when he bore his testimony. Wow we were all blown out of the water. He has grown and learned SO much. It made me very proud to have been apart of that. I was smiling so big of course. Its like each time I probably look goofy but I am filled with so much joy and the spirit!! Pablo loves being weird and taking crazy pics so ill send some.

Travis was able to come to conference this week as well as David and both are doing great! (we teach almost all men!) Travis is still set for baptism on the 1st of November and I am just so happy for him. Brother Woodrum has taken Travis on and is being the best missionary ever. He is really just being a great friend and support to him and helping him understand all we teach. It is so cool that he is already taking such an active role in our ward. Travis brought a ice cream cake to conference because he works at dairy queen. The pieces he cut were about 1/4 of the cake without exaggeration, I wanted to take a picture for mom because she would have died! The boys would have been in Heaven.

CJ and Tana are both also doing well. The Word of Wisdom is holding them both back right now. We have a little concoction we are going to make for Tana and we'll see if CJ wants some too. Hopefully that will help haha but more so the help of God. It is very frustrating to have awesome people you love struggle so much. And you know the way their struggling can stop! We all have agency and have to choose for ourselves if we want healing from God or not!

We have been SO busy with all of our progressing investigators and really it is such a blessing. I am always ready for a goods night sleep when I get home but I also am always so ready to get out and work again. Sharing the gospel is like the best medicine there is. It heals and strengthens your soul. It brings peace and joy and light. I hope you all can find a time to share that light this week!!
Les quiero mucho!!!

Have a wonderful week! :)
