I Love This Work

 Whats up everbody! These past two weeks we have found a ton of new people and about almost all of them are Nicaraguans who are tougher to understand because they dont prounounce there S's but they are hilarious and awesome people. We found a total of 23 people last week which was amazing for us. We had a big heat wave of it being in the 100s so everyone was out on the street which made it perfect. I have really grown a strong love for the latino people lately, as my Spanish has grown a lot recently it has been a huge blessing to be able to express that love and share the gospel with these people. Despite how many people we found it was pretty rough with our baptismal dates. We had to drop all 5 of our baptismal dates last week. We finally met again with the Bello Cruz family this week and the kids are leaving Thursday to Mexico for a month and the parents are gonna be in Nebraska for a month working out there while there kids are in Mexico. They also had some cervezas with them an

 Hey everybody, hope everyone is doing great! These last two weeks were very eventful and were great with a lot of good work done.   To start, our friend Gonzalo got baptized! It was such an exciting weekend for him and us, as he gotta do it at our branch presidents pool in his backyard, which was just awesome. The greatest thing with gonzalo though is the amazing progress he has made, his baptism was about a week and half ago and he has already gotten the priesthood and his temple recommend, so absolute beast. We love him though and am so excited to see where his great testimony of the gospel takes him. We also had our friend Diego put on date for June 26th this past week. He is 19 and speaks English, and is so awesome. We taught him last week about the gospel of Jesus Christ and right after we talked about baptism and the gift of the holy ghost, he immediatley asked us when he could get baptized. It was so awesome for us to hear and the spirit couldnt of been more present to feel. At

  Hey everybody! How has everyone been? A lot has happened the last two weeks. The first week was pretty rough for us. So we had our friend julia on date for  May 22nd and she was doing so great but stopped answering us a couple days before the baptism, and we still havent been able to get in contact for the most part which has been really tough but she still gets on our church zooms so we will continue to try and reach out and meet with her again. We also had our family the Bello Cruz who are awesome and had on date on May 29th. So they had been out of town for awhile and about a week and half before their baptism we finally got a good time to come by their place to teach them the word of wisdom. They let us in and inside our about 20 people with about 8 racks of modelos in the living room. So that was super frustrating for us as when we finally found a good time to talk to them about drinking we walk into them doing exactly that. But they gave us some good mexican food and low key ap
