Hey all!Things are going great down here in veracruz. The highlight of today will not be going to carls Jr which is definitely an up there, but will be the baptisms of Rosario, Esther, and Monse. They all three are going to enter into the baptismal convannt in a few short hours. What an amazing moment to witness someone taking the first step and ordinance of the Gospel. There is truly an opposition in all things, as each one of them had trials leading towards there baptism, but are more than ready and willing to keep fighting the good fight. This week we received a reference from a Sister that came from a different city on vacation, and as she left the church building she had found by her own account, she contacted a man and returned back to the church to give us the referral. It was such a blessing, considering now he and his family are receiving the lessons and preparing for a baptism on the 14th of August. This is such a perfect example of a true disciple of Jesus Christ. on vacation, found the Church and hour, and than contacted someone and gave the missionaries the referral. Wow, if all us members were more like that there sure would be a lot more success in missionary work. The Scriptures and Prophets always encourage us to open our mouth, and not worry what we shall say. Missionary work is also a way that we retain the remission of our sins, if we shame to preach the Gospel, it shall be difficult to retain the remission of our sins. I know the Lord is content with the good discipleship of that Sister, and I encourage all of you to follow her great example, the missionaries would love it! On a second note, i cant believe Bree will be home this week. wow. Time truly flies by, I'm so glad i still have a good 3 months left to keep at it. Thee field is truly white and ready to harvest. Seeds have been planted, its time to reap. i love you all so much and thank you or your constant support.
Love

OH MY HECK - I'D BE DYING TOOOO! Can't wait to hear EVERYTHING. Too bad I wasn't at the airport to be able to film ALL the scoop - like when Bubba came home. Was that Bubba that I filmed or Brandon? I'm pretty sure that was Bubba. Anyhow, SOOOOOO happy for you!
