Well this week was... fresh... It got down to be like 15 degrees Celsius which I just converted on the computer and equals about 60 degrees...... hahaha ya well everyone this week was wrapped up in full on winter clothes and no one dared go outside. Except the two white kids that always wear a shirt and tie.... and they went out with a short sleeve shirt and enjoyed the nice weather... but it was a fun week.
One thing that happened that was just fabulous is we had a meeting with a mission leader here for the first time in over a year in our ward... YAY. that was solid. also we ate subway... again :) We also had a service project with some less actives in our ward. We moved about 3 tons of sand from the front yard to the back yard in less than an hour and a half with 5 little buckets. Pretty sure we broke some sort of high score with that acheivment. And then we headed to the little town like an hour away called La Leonesa because we had to bring to pass a few baptismal interviews.. we found some new people... some a little more receptive than the others... We kinda got told off on a believes by this one dude and he prayed for us that we could find the truth and not be confused.... but even with lessons like that I'm even more convinced that the restoration of the gospel in these latter days really did happen... we also met some stellar teenagers and a lady named M.

I've been thinking lately in what I can do to be a better missionary. I'm set on improving my personal prayers every day and night. and that i really seek to obtain the spirit..... because that really is the trick to this missionary work. The spirit, and I figure it might be a trick for life.
Love to all and to all a good night.
