GOLDEN!!!!

Hola Mama!

How are you? Welp, my week was good! It is HOT here!!! 106 degrees PLUS humidity. not ok with me....way too hot! My spanish is getting pretty good!  i have attached a picture of my district so you can see us all, pretty fun.


Fun fact...my branch doesnt celebrate 4th of july. hmmm, i wonder why? haha more than half of my branch is illegal and theres a few elders in my mission who are illegal and they have to stay state side and cant go to the MTC cause they dont have papers. So, no fun plans for us hermanas on July 4th. i hope you do your usual park party and take lots of pictures for me and casey.  I am glad you are including carissa and the langone family.  go mommy :)


Good news!!  MANUELA AND DANNY CAME TO CHURCH!!! Manuela is the lady that went to mexico and brought me back a bracelet. She is absolutely ADORABLE. Danny is her son (he's 20). And last week we had an appointment with her and she opened up about how badly she wants Danny to be baptized with her and stuff but that Danny wont talk about religion with her. So i convinced him to come to church. And after we did a church tour with them and showed them the bap font and had a quick lesson. Manuela cried almost the whole time cause she felt the spirit so strongly and then after when we were standing outside the church and it was just me and Danny talking he told me "you've got me convinced. I want to hear your lessons and i want to come to church more". GOLDEN! i was so happy! Isnt that awesome? so i'll let you know more with what happens with them but we've been teaching manuela ever since we've been here and she just now came to church. and she LOVED it!!
