This week was normal which means good except for sunday which was AMAZING!

so we've started teaching Urbano he's the husband of Irma and he's of GOLD. Just amazing. we've only taught him the first lesson but he pretty much told us that he knows its true and he is seriously considering getting baptised.he says that this is the only religion that makes any sense.  His wife has suffered attacks from witches. There are A LOT of witches in Mexico and they do a lot of damage. These attacks have left her damaged but she's also amazing! They came to church together on Sunday. It wasn't the normal three hours; we had a district meeting with all the branches in Santiago. The first half we talked about family history and branch organization and branch counsel. Elder Johnson a member of the seventy came and spoke. He did amazing. The second half talked about putting in practice what we learn, and loving our spouses and parents  and how we need to have patience one with another. There were also talks about the plan of salvation.   Jesús Demetrio also came to church with us. He's a new investigator that we had this week. We haven't even taught him lesson 1 yet and he came to church! it was pretty cool.  think he got bored though... but he's really nice and he seems interested. We also want to teach his grandma, actually we've taught her lesson 1. she didn't come to church because a cat bit her foot and it swelled up big and nasty. But we're going to go with the elders to give her a blessing. Speaking of blessings this has been the week of blessings. Both Ima and Urbano got blessings and also Nadia one of our investigators who is possessed by an evil spirit, (result of witchcraft and broken hearts) she's really nice and she's a really good dancer.

Well thats all the good stuff. Every day it gets hotter and hotter here in San Blas. I could stay here forever if it wasn't for the heat. Well thats all have an excellent day my family and friends.Remember that the gospel is true and that it changes lives , when you put it in practice.

Favorite scripture: D&C 88:33 '' For what doth it profit a man if a gift is bestowed upon him, and he receive not the gift? Behold, he rejoices not in that which is given unto him, neither rejoices in him who is the giver of the gift''

I love it because its so true. The gift is given, The Atonement has been made but we with our agency have to accept the gift. He won't forcé us to be saved thats completely up to us. The way to accept the gift is through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. If we leave the gift unwrapped and untouched on the table neither we nor Jesús Christ can rejoice in receiving and giving the gift.

Love you all!
