This week has been busy but great! Darren got baptized!! It was
awesome a member named Francís baptized him and it was solid.  Darren
will be the best missionary in a few years. Now we just need to get
his mom and the rest of the fam!! On Monday we had a family home
evening super awesome in the house of the family Peña.  Family home
evening is an awesome way to share the gospel!  It was so fun and
there was so many people there.

So a member named Naysha has a best friend named Kristel from Ecuador.
She came to a baptism of an eight year old in the ward and also to the
Hawaiian party. She's cool and all but I really didn't think she had
any interest or just thought we were cute and that's why she'd talk to
us haha.  I thought that until Friday when I was on intercombios with
the zone leader. We just had left an appointment and we turn the
corner and Kristel was right there so we started talking and then I
asked her if we could talk for like 15 minutes in the park and she
accepted.  We then had an awesome lesson about the Holy Ghost and how
it testifies of the truth but then goes away if we don't have the gift
of the Holy Ghost. I didn't even think she was paying attention at the
baptism but she shared how she felt when she was at the church and
when all the family was baring their testimonies. We invited her to be
baptized but she said that it would be too fast and needs to pray and
read to know.  It was literally an amazing lesson and I really hope
she does reads and prays because she's going through a crucial time
and really needs the gospel in her life! We are going to have family
home evening with Naysha's family and Kristel tomorrow so we'll see
how it goes!

So Thursday was zone conference and it was amazing! It went like 2
hours overtime but I was ok with it because all of the talks were so
good. One thing I got out of it is for the rest of my mission I'm
always going to have a Book of Mormon in my hands at all times! I
always carry one in my bag but it's better when you carry it by hand
because it's like going to war with a sword in your hand! The Book of
Mormon is our weapon haha.  But it was great and I loved it.

Well officially have passed the year mark. Hope all is well at home!
