que dices tu

dear my beloved and oh so virtous familia,

how is life going up in the U S OF A? things donw here are going great. im loving the mission. im loving the trials. im just loving life. so i planned a little better this week to write you more. i hope you all love the pics. one of them is pday bowling. and i must say that i bowled my best score ever to finish off with a 132....oh the tender blessings of serving the lord. it was fun jaja. oh, and jaja is the haha of latin america if yall have wondered why i use that. sorry for not writing a ton of letters to everyone. in the usa it was so much easier to send letters. here you have to take the letters to the mail place which is usually in some obscure place out of our area...im trying but just know i love all your letters, emails, and prayers. Side note for zach....you need to look up two talks and read them, THE 4TH MISSIONARY, and HOW TO BECOME A CONSECRATED MISSIONARY BY something CALISTER. those will help you get ready for the mission. they are really good. paul toala, you should read them too! so here in villa cerefino it is the city and a lot different than my last area. things are a lot faster here and i love it. oh before i forget. you are a stud muffin zach. thank you so much for your letter. i loved to here about the experience with skyler. tell him im so proud, pumped, jazzed, hyped, and all the above for him...also i love him to death. jackson, what are you going to be for halloween? You need to plan it out my bro so that you can look good haha. that goes for all my little cousins...choose now if you havent because i want to see pics of you all from halloween. so this past week was good. being a trainer is a whole knew world and im learning so much about my own faults its crazy. haha i have a long way to go to become like the savior. but it is good. this morning we had a really emotional conversation about how his family lifebefore the mission wasnt the greatest. i felt gratefull that i was able to be the one to be there for him. something really crazy this week was we had a lesson with a man and is girlfriend. they are like 50 but no one here gets married. the girlfriend wants to get married so she can be baptized but the man doesnt want to. just about all their kids are members and he never like talking with the missionaries. but, hes changing because now he is talking with us and participating in the lessons. yesterday we invited him to pray with us which he has never done with other missionaries. we got on our knees and he gave a great pray and started to cry. it was great to see the power of prayer woring in his life and we will see what happens in the future with that family. the point is that there is true power in prayer. dont ever forget that faith and prayer is like a one two puch combo from heavenly father, jesus christ, and the holy spirit. this church is so true and im so pumped to be a servant of the lord. the work is rough but nothing worth while ever came easy. FATIQE (cant spell lo siento) MAKES COWARDS OF US ALL. if we apply this quote with the gospel it is so true. we need to prepare ourselves for the game by reading the scriptures, praying, and fulfilling our callings so that nothing can bring us down or stop us from vistory. i love you all.
