I got some solid experience now kind of hahhaaha. Anyways well im glad you were all able to get the anniversary up and going. Sounds like it was pretty crazy...haha like alot of planning...like wow.. haha that sounded crazy. like wow. haha im glad it was fun and the family was able to get together even though its crazy its always sweet. Nothing better!! 

And mom keep it up with the calling.. its hard but they are so fufilling! And good luck with your relay comin up! i miss running super often.. oh well haha!

Anyways here are two highlights from the week..or a few haha
Jonathan was able to come to church again this week! On tuesday we meet with him and i think we are gonna put a baptismal date with him as well. We are also working with the figaroa family. We hit them with everything we had this week. We visited this family of 5 with members and taught with power and were THAT close to go to church but they had to leave...hahah we were SOOOO close. 

We also had the baptism of a kid named Osmin that we taught and we reactivated his mom so that was super cool!! a nice experience. We had interviews with President on friday as well. haha it was really fast cause basically he had interviews with everyone cause he wanted to clean the missioin so i walked in and he was like "ok sins" and i was like none. haha then diligence and i said 100% and then we talked about my assignment as ZL a little bit and yea haha that was it. 

But as im heading into the second half of my mission this whole week i did a huge self evalution(by the way i got your packages!! THANK YOU! PERFECT!!! haha new garments feel so good lol and sour patch) and the letter mom wrote me made me start to think as well. So this whole week in my studies and my actions i was thinking alot and i just felt immensely grateful for this opportunity to serve and what its done for and to me. On friday it rained SUPER HARD and we were walking then it started and we had to run and it was sick and then we found cover and watched the lightning for a little and i just had this sick feeling and i was like.."Im in mexico preaching the everlasting gospel in a different language. I am a servant and disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ. " it was super cool!! Then today i read a scriputre in Acts 5 when Peter and John were persecuted that says
38 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:
 39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it;
 41 ¶And they departed from the presence of the council,rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shamefor his name.
 42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
So yea!!! that was my week!! KEEP IT UP FAMILY!!!! GO HARD IN THE PAINT!!!
LOVE YOU ALL!!
