Hola Everyone Well this week was pretty much the same as all the other weeks for us. The weather is pretty much like Idaho, unpredictable. It was about 78-80 degrees Wednesday and Thursday but the last few days have been pretty cold. The weather really throws me for a loop sometimes. Besides our lessons with Yilda and Mariela, everything else was really slow. But we had a really good lesson with Mariela. She was baptized about 4 years ago in the Catholic Church and doesn't feel the need to be baptized again even though she loves coming to church and feels like its where she is supposed to be. We explained to her about the importance of the authority to baptize even though she has heard it a million times but something changed. She accepted our invitation to be baptized on the 16th of November. She is still pretty hesitant but committed to work hard and do the things we ask. We were also able to set baptismal dates for Yilda and her daughter Ignacia for the 16th as well. They both went to church yesterday and both feel that the church is true. I'm so happy to be a part of this marvelous work and to be able to help people come closer to Jesus Christ. I know that this work is true and that this church is true as well, no doubt in my mind. I love and miss you all and hope that you have an awesome week!
