BUENAS!
I don't know what's wrong with me but my memory is starting to fail on me. I have such a hard time remembering what happens during the week haha. But, we made S'mores again in our house. We had a Colombian BBQ with the Salcedo Family (members) and the Campos Leon Family (investigators) which was fun! We were able to find new investigators this week and they seem really solid. We also have a baptism planned for this Saturday for Christian Rey. He is 12 and all, of his family are members. He hasn't gotten baptized yet because he has a fear of water so they have tried 4 times since his 8th birthday but he hasn't gone through with it yet. So, hopefully Saturday will be the day! It's been hard visiting people and finding out that they don't have money to eat or pay the rent or that a less active family is getting a divorce, and a variety of other things. It makes me really think about all the blessings I have, even the most simplest blessings like a roof over my head, food, water, or clothes. There are so many things that we are blessed with that if we just take a second to really think about the blessings we have we will start to see just how much God loves each and everyone of us. I'm still super excited for General Conference in 3 weeks! Well, love you all and thank you for all of the love and support!
