12 Dec 2016 An Amazing Birthday

12 Dec 2016

I had an amazing birthday! The day was pretty hectic but everything went well, and I felt really loved by everyone. I can’t explain how much the support from home means even if they are little notes. It was perfect.

In the morning we had a zone meeting and there was a surprise... it was a big breakfast and it was awesome. Also at the end of the meeting they gave me a cake and sang Happy Birthday. They told me to bite the cake and as a tradition shoved my face in it.  Haha, it was fun.

Then a little more later, we had an appointment with the family Delgado, and they made me some barbecue.

Later in the pension we ate some cake and I opened up my presents. I loved reading all the little notes from everyone. I wasn’t expecting much for my birthday but I really felt the love and support from the people here and there at home. I’m so grateful for everyone that supports us here.

This week was a pretty good week too. We are still waiting for Guillermo Delgado to get married and then he can be baptized, and we have some other investigators that are close to baptism too. We always try to find the funny moments while contacting people and we have been trying hard to promote the new initiative, (“Light Up the World” in English?) In Spanish it’s “ilumina el mundo”,  haha. But every time I watch that video it gives me chills.

It shows us that we have this goal to be like Jesus Christ and well it shows us that it’s not that hard, right? I love this message that we have to share and what a better season to be sharing it!


Share my love with everyone!

Here is a picture of the zone

They had breakfast before a zone meeting and this was on my birthday.  Us eating breakfast.
  

This was a demonstration that they did with Elders, Damron, Vonasek, and Altamirano, to show how we need to adjust our teachings to what the investigators need to hear

This was us with some jackets that the members let us borrow because it was raining and we didn’t have ours

My birthday cake that they got me

This is a picture of the cake that they gave me (leaders of the zone, Elders Starkey and Olson).
  

This is us on the bus

A family prepared an asado, like a bbq, for my birthday

I got a big card from the ward and I loved it, too!
