A Spirit-Filled Week!

Hola Familia!!!

This week was super great!!!! Claudia got baptized! She was so prepared and it was amazing to see her baptism :) It is so amazing to see how the gospel really can bring families together and now they have the chance of being together for ever! It was so cool because when she came out of the water she couldnt stop smiling. it was such a gratifying feeling to know that this matrimony now is in the path of the one and only true gospel :) i know that through baptism we can become clean from all of our past mistakes and that it is the way that Christ showed us to do, just like we learn from 2 Nephi 31 If we was perfect and was baptized how much more do we have to be baptized being sinners. He put the example for us and now invites us to follow him. It was an amazing week full of the spirit :)

Have a great week!

Melo Family

Hola Familia!!!!!!!!!!

This week was an amazing week! One of the great experiences that we had this week was with the Melo Family. This week we had a super great lesson with them about the plan of salvation and how familys can live together for eternity if they are obedient to the laws and ordinances of the gospel. It was amazing to see how this knowledge they recieved lighted their faces and you could see a difference in the way they were. They were filled with a greater portion of the light of Christ and it was amazing to see how when people have an open heart and are willing to listen, that they begin to understand what this gospel will do for them personally. They committed to come to church adn they were really excited to come! But then here comes the trial of the faith... we were at church waiting for them to show up and the meeting started and they still werent there. We said a little prayer and went in to the meeting... and the Family Melo came walking in!!!!!! :) it was such a miracle and amazing to see how much they liked the church. We are so excited for this family and we hope to see more of the progression in the gospel through baptism soon! Please please please pray for them! Love you all!

Thanks for all the support you all give me :)

Love,
