Good Week!

  Well, this week was pretty good.  On Monday we went over to Rosana and taught her about the book of mormon. she's really good, we have a lot of hope for her.  Then the day went pretty normally. Tuesday was good, we had district class in the morning, then we went to lunch and started to work. It was a pretty decent day, and in the nighttime we went to go see a guy named Freddy. We taught him like 4 weeks ago but then couldn't find him, but we found him finally on Tuesday and taught him and his wife. They're both super cool as well!

   On Wednesday we had interviews with the President. It was really good, I learned a lot and left feeling really excited to work. We got a lot of good metas (goals) to make us improve. We're working here on being more inspired and more obedient, and we've been seeing results this week. For example we plan and pray for a specific street to do contacts, and the majority of the people we talk to there are really cool. That's what's been going on this week. SOThursday was good too, nothing to special though. 

   On Friday we did a minicambio with La Florida, and I went over there. It was overall a good minicambio, we found a really good lady over there doing contacts. The best news is that the we're gonna have a baptism on Saturday! SO that's good for them. And meanwhile back in our sector, Elder Huerta found a really cool family. 

   Saturday was a good day too. We went around to our investigators trying to get them to church. We also went to La Floridas baptism, which was really good. SO on Saturday we had 6 investigators who said they were coming to church: Catalina, Freddy and his wife Gloria, Rosana, and 2 kids from the family elder Huerta found.

   SO Sunday came around and Catalina, and the 2 kids elder Huerta found came. They're names are Kevin and Kaylee. Yeah, super gringo names. But they both loved church! so were excited about them. Catalina also looked like she had a lot better time this week than other weeeks. She is playing the rebel card with us though, for example, she went to an evangelical church with the nanny of their house on Saturday night...ugh. But were still seeing progress with her. We even flat out talked about baptism, and she knows its important but she wants to be sure to do it in the right church. Remember, she's 10 years old! Shes like super mature and kinda a brat, but progressing a bit. So well see how it goes with her. Also on Sunday we found 6 new investigators, one was real good the other were just decent. But that's how it goes I guess.
  So we're working hard here in Jardin del Valle, and starting to get some progress going, if all goes right we should have a very successful month of April. This week should be good, especially working on getting all of our good invstigators to church.

   Well, thats all I guess for this week.  Hope all is well back home, and that your having a good week. Oh yeah, and today we went to Linares and played soccer against a differnent zone. fun stuff. Have a great week!
