hey family!! so anyway i love you guys soo much!! so this is another day transfers!! Im still here so another 6 weeks here in this area! i have the same companion and everything!! President is really proud of my work with him! this week hasnt has the best stories but still full of blessings!! so anyway thursday was really good!! we had taught this lesson with this less active named simeon and it was really a spiritual experiencia! we had talked about in finding our lord Jesus Christ! i read the scriptures and it was amazing! it tells us that if we look for the Christ that the profetas have talked him then we will gain a testimonio that will be with us forever! i love this verse because as we look for Christ we can recieve his love and the grace of God the Father and also we can feel the holy Ghost which gives testimonio of them and it will be with us forever! this a testimonio that we all need to have, is in the lord Jesus Christ! Sometimes we dont  why we pass through these hard times but if we have a firme and strong testimonio en Jesus Christ we can feel at peace and know that everything is just a small moment! the life is not easy! but i know with Jesus Christ we can overcome all things! Friday we taught this old investigadora named Marta about La fe Jesucristo and i really feel like lately that  the spirit here has been trying to focus his teachings in getting people to think more about Jesucristo!we had a lot meeting but nothing really special! Domingo was really sweet because we had a cosecha with the ward and soo us and 10 other missionaries!! and like 30 members left and taught a lot of less actives! it was great because we got a ton of new people to teach and also the members are now excited to work in this work of the lord!!  well family that is my week i love you and i hope that everything is good!!

hola familia!! so anyway these last few weeks have been full of adventure!! i have been so grateful for the spirit and for its guidance here in the mission! quik story form last week! on last tuesday was really interesting! we finished everything that we had to in the mourning, and then at 3 o clock in afternoon we left the house thinking maybe it was just quiet turned out to be something totally different. we had been walking in the street and couldnt find really anyone outside! when all of a sudden a cop came and asked why we were outside we said because we had citas to go to! he said that we better head back and go home because there was a riot going on all around my area!! i realized that as we hit another street that it was true what the cop had told us! there were bombs in the road that had exploded and garbage everywhere!!me and my companion had this feeling to go home because it was too dangerous to be outside, but as we sat there for a minute in the road we decided to go to a cita with a less active real fast but as we were walking down to her road a guy on his motor pulled a gun out to shoot at a dog right next to us! after scaring me and my companion half to death we decided to go back home and then stayed in the house! the riot lasted until mid afternoon wednesday and so thats why i didnt have that much time to write last week! so this thursday we had a cita with one of my new investigadores named mario and he is really sweet! As we talked about what the Gift of the holy Ghost and he put so much attention on this tema! As we taught this lesson i realized how grateful i am about the Holy Ghost in my life! as i think about all the things that i have done in my life has had the influence of the Holy Ghost! He is A GUIDE for us! he is peace and joy and the strength for us in order for us to return to the presence of our heavenly father! he is the reason that we can know the will of God! As we ponder on things that we need to do, Listen to the promptings always because as you listen to him you will always do what is right!! so friday was really good as well!! we taught this investigador named Gorge and he is really sweet! we talked about the ministry of Jesus Christ! I love talking about his ministry because it is such a blessing that he was willing to give up his entire life in order for us to have the doctrine and teaching that would get us back to our heavenly father!! he is a huge catolico andi really believe that he will that our church is true! he is awsome because he always has comments and questions! the people who have questions are the people who listen!!! Saturday was alright not much to say! Lunes was really sweet because we had had a cita con un investigador named Raimil and he is soo cool! i have been teaching him for a while now and at first i didnt really think he wanted to learn and actually listen but as we got in more doctrine that was really interesting to him he really showed attention!! he really has the heart and willingness to be baptized and to follow his example and im grateful for him! I ask you guys to put his dad in your prayers because he is not doing very well!! So yesterday was kind of boring but it was full of walking!! So today and not to scare you guys but me and my companion and the sister in our area here had to go to the hospital and get tested for TB and so we are all dong ok and i pretty sure that i dont have it!! but i love you guys soo much and i feel great!
