Hey!
Como le fue su semana? Gracias por los fotos de las sobrinas, estan chidos. Are stake conference broadcast was pretty cool, they basically repeated everything they said in conference and if I remember right they even shared some of the same stories and examples. Elder Steven S. Snow, Margaret S. Liffereth, Elder Dallin H. Oaks, and President Thomas S. Monson spoke. Elder Oaks talked about that people just need to open their perspective and realize that the world is not about you. It is the worst thing in the world to bring people to church, investigators/ less actives/ or anybody and no one fellowships them or the ones who do anything only shake their hand and say welcome. THAT'S BOGUSS!! The reason we go to church is to lift each other, if we go for ourselves trying to obtain something we went for the wrong reason. We need to go to the church with an attitude of 'Who am I going to lift up or help today', 'Who needs me today'. If we go to church with that attitude, about lifting others, we will grow and things will be great! Selfishness is a form of pride, pride is a sin, and is what brought down the nations of old. JUST SERVE! From you talking about taxes and all it made me realize how much I do not want to go home and how much I really don't know about the real life. I don't know how to do jack! Freak! We've found 8 new investigators this past week, many cool ones, can't wait to get back with them. We have an appointment with Rogelio and Alicia this night and might give them a baptismal date. We'll see. "Hope for the best, plan for the worst", right? That's an awesome line from The Bourne Supremacy. We taught the second lesson to Francisco y Cleotilde and they ate it up! We thought they were pretty bogus but they have really turned around recently and probably will give them a date soon. On Monday we gave a date to a woman who has been progressing quietly. Not firm worth a darn though but something for her to work towards, but most likely will be moved. Right now she is shooting for the 9th of May. Angelica is her name. Only have a couple of minutes more, but hope all is well, time doesn't exist and things are improving. Take Care! and HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA SMITH! Later!
