Okay, Hi everyone! This week has been pretty good. My companion and I
bought a pizza because we thought that we were going to have transfers,
but no, so we just ate pizza. This week we finally got with Diana,
after not being able to contact her. She is really excited for her
baptism, and her daughter too. Good news, Diana brought her son, who is
like 25, to church this past week, and he liked it, I think. He was
there for all 3 hours, and we also started to teach with Crescencia´s
friend, who works with her in her restaurant. She might progress, she
is a little shy, but we´ll see what happens. We didn´t have transfers
and that's a good thing, because this transfer lots of things are going
to happen. My companion´s birthday, stake conference, 2 zone
conferences, I´m going to sign my visa, Diana´s baptism, and some other
stuff that I would have missed. The only problem is that I have to
travel to Guadalajara to sign my visa, and it is 10 hours in bus, so I´m
going to lose 2 days this transfer. This past week we had the last
district meeting, and this picture is of the 2 districts in Guerrero.
It is officially the rainy season here,
but we are still waiting for just a little bit. It gets way hot here,
and all I want is a little rain to cool it down. Everyone says that
when it rains here, it rains hard, so it should be pretty exciting now
that its going to start up here soon.
OK I´ve got to go!
Okay, Hi everyone! How is everyone doing? This week has been pretty
good. We have had some good experiences, and been able to find more
people to teach. Crescencia got baptized and I was the one who got to
baptize her. 12 missionaries came to the baptism, because we had a meeting with an area seventy. It was a good service, and lots of people came. That was the big thing that happened this week. Some members also took us to go meet some of there
friends, and they accepted to be taught! So we have found some more
people to teach. Diana and her daughter had to move, and now don´t live
in our area, but it is only something temporary. They did accept a
baptismal date, but weren´t able to come to church, and we haven´t been
able to contact her, because we don´t have minutes on our cellphone, the
good news is that today we get more minutes. Also, this is the last week of the
transfer. I think I might be going, but I´m not sure. We are going to
find out this Sunday in the night. I can´t believe I got here in this
area in January. Oh, something else happened this week. Yesterday, a
less active member invited us to come to a family home evening, and we
went, and the whole family was there. There were about 25-30 people
there, and it was really good. At the end, they gave us tons of food.
Now we are hoping that all of them can make it to church to start being
active in the church again.
Have a good week.

In this email there are just lots of pictures of us. In the morning
today, when we went to the Parthenon, on the way we passed by a nice
part of the city with lots of hotels and stuff, views of the beach and
ocean. It was interesting. Apparently some guy in the government made the Parthenon like 50 years ago,
and did it with government money, so the government took it from him,
and now its just a big abandoned building. We took tons of pictures. We also got into part of the building that
was outside of the gate. There were a ton of bats, and one almost hit
me. There also is a picture of us making the sushi things for mothers day. okay! So this week was pretty good. Crescencia is still excited for
her baptism. Everyone in the ward is helping us with her. She is
having some problems with her mom and family, but that isn´t keeping her
from being baptized. It´s pretty exciting. Diana also came to church
yesterday. She liked it a lot, and her daughter came also, and liked it
as well, she said she also would like to be baptized, but we are going
to put the date tomorrow. Okay, well this is all for now.

This week was really good! I was able to go in divisions to San
Jeronimito and also we had a zone meeting this past week. Its crazy
because some mail from January is just barely getting to me. We also
had a ward activity this past week for the Childrens Day. Our ward
mission leader had some piñatas made like my companion and I. It is
hard to describe how it feels to have a "mini me" get destroyed by a
bunch of little kids haha. Our investigators are doing good.
Crescencia attended church again, and is progressing quite well. We
weren´t able to have a lesson with her, but we saw her a couple of
times. She went to the activity also. If she keeps up like this, and
we don´t have any other big problems, she should get baptized the 16 of
May. She is very excited about it. Besides that, the other
investigators are doing good. We are having a little bit of trouble
finding some new people, but we have a couple future refrences from some
members. It is getting really hot here. The good news is that the
mangos are in season and all sorts of other fruits. Well thats about it
for this week! Got to go!
