4 Days Til Baptism

This week by far felt the longest out of them all. Friday and Saturday went fast with good lessons and exchanges. We had a lesson with the kids in the park again and they were all sitting down waiting for us when we arrived. Unfortunately, trying to keep the attention of 10 little kids with broken Spanish doesn't work the best. Then Monday and Tuesday were a drag with lessons that fell through and no new people found.

 

 

This Sunday I will have my first baptism. Benedicto has been progressing well ever since I got here and he finally gets baptized on Sunday. He is so excited. He has been worried the last few days because he doesn't have a white shirt for church like most kids so me and my comp are surprising him with one on his baptism.

 

 

I found a new friend named Elijas at the park. He's 9 and is by far my favorite. He studies during the week and goes around polishing and shining shoes on Saturday and Sundays because his family doesn't make tons of money. He's the sweetest kid hopefully we can get him to church. I'll have a picture of him below. He's in the Lakers jersey.

 

 

Not much has happened this week but me and my comp found a pandaria (bread place) with muffins that taste like the Costco ones. So we have gone there twice this week already. My comp hit his one year on his mission yesterday so we went to a nice restaurant and ate. As you guys know i love hamburgers and shake shack sounds so good everyday. Luckily this place had cheeseburgers and it was heaven. By far the best food I've had yet. I got bored a little this week so I decided to make a cake. I'll post a picture below. We ate that yesterday too. Other than that nothing is new. 

 

 

I listened to a talk this week that really has become one of my favorites. I challenge you guys all to listen to it this week and let me know how it goes. It's called The Great Commandment by Joseph B Wirthlin. All of his talks are great but that's my favorite one. 

 

 

Anyways that's all for this week. Shoot me a message or email. I would love to hear how you guys are doing. Pictures below
