I reported my mission to the Forest Grove Oregon Stake high council early in the morning and then gave my homecoming talk in Forest Grove 2nd Ward in the afternoon. It was a very hot Sunday afternoon. After Sacrament meeting we took pictures and then had a family BBQ. That evening we had a small open house in the backyard for people to stop by and visit with me and have a rootbeer float.<br />

Welp this is it. 4 days left!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This week was really cool for us, mostly because of a super
special experience that we had on Sunday. We've had a lot of investigators just
fall through and not want anything after lots of time dedicated to teaching and
planning in order to help them progress, but this week we visited a guy named
Rafael that we've been teaching for a while. He always had commitments in the
past with his other church and wasn't super excited to even try to come to
church with us. But we visited him on Saturday and he told us that he wasn't
planning to go to his church, and that he was going to stay home and clean the
house. So right then we jumped in and committed him to come to church with us.
He said yes and we were just pumped. It's really cool to see how the Lord works
in different ways, because at the end of the lesson I remember promising him
that if he went to church, he would feel in his heart that the things we're
teaching are true and that this is the true and restored church of Jesus
Christ. He committed and it was all cool and neither of us thought about the
promise we made to him.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So he made it to church on Sunday and right away he found
some members that he's known for a looong time. So it was perfect. Already got
friends here. It wasn't like the talks were super good or anything special
happened during church, but afterwards he told us pointing to his heart "I
don't know what it is, but there's something in here that's telling me that
Rafael needs a baptism here quickly." We were really happy but didn't
really pay much attention to everything he said. But last night I was thinking
and literally what he felt in his heart is exactly what we had promised him the
night before! It was so special to recognize that a simple promise from two of
our Savior's representatives was fulfilled and he realized it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Without a doubt I know that this is His true church. I know
that it has been restored and is the only true church on the face of the earth
that has the power to do all the ordinances necessary to make it back to God's
presence. He answers prayers. I feel and can see that the authority that was
conferred upon me as I was set apart as a missionary and representative of
Jesus Christ is real and works miracles in the lives of His children. He loves
us and is constantly watching over us.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The greatest joy in this life is being able to help others
come unto Christ and find the joy and happiness in this life that will one day
transform into an eternity of joy and blessings. I love this work. I know that
it is real. Our Savior lives and because of him we can be clean of our sins and
one day resurrected to a perfect state, to receive the fullness of the
blessings that the Father has waiting for us.<o:p></o:p></div>

It was a good week though. We didn't actually get to work in
our area until Thursday so that kinda threw us off a bit. Rafael apparently
believes that his church is the true church. He's wrong, but won't accept it.
So he fell through...<o:p></o:p></div>

But that's not the end of the world because the zone is
looking a lot better and there's some young elders that are going to be

Wow what a week, honestly it was a really stressful week I
think. We found some cool people and taught a lot... but in the end nobody came
to church. We were expecting like 5 people, but in the end, nobody showed up.
And it was like the most important Sunday they could have come to! Because
President Gonzalez from the Presidency of the Area Caribe came and visited the
ward in San German. He talked and gave lessons and it was just an amazing
Sunday, seriously the spirit was soooo strong there!!<o:p></o:p></div>

We're still working with Rafael, but he has to work on
leaving the church he goes to right now. He loves the doctrine and has learned
a TON! But still has a connection to the other church... People just don't
change very easily. So he didn't come... if he had come he would have loved it!<o:p></o:p></div>

We're still working with Rubi also. She's making progress
but didn't make it to church because they were in San Juan this weekend. <o:p></o:p></div>

well lately, told us that he doesn't want to hear anything else from us. Just
out of nowhere told us that he's done. I thought he was going to be baptized
for sure but obviously that's not quite what he has planned apparently.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But we spent a lot of time finding new people to teach this
week and we were able to find a man named Rafael, who's super special. I think
he's missing an eye (ironic that I'm not super sure because I couldn't see very
well hahahhaa). But he's super cool and knows a ton about the bible and stuff,
but the best part is that he loves the Book of Mormon and wants to read it. He
says it just makes sense! He accepted a date for the 10th of June and has loads
of potential. Super cool guy. It just shows that you can't judge anybody! When
I contacted him on an exchange, he was all sweaty and gross and obviously
missing an eye. I had no idea he would be so cool!!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We also found a cool family on our exchange and went back
and taught them on Sunday and it was another super cool experience! It's really
amazing how a true testimony can help someone to feel the spirit and want to
learn more. The mom of this family was asking all the right questions! Honestly
that's like the best feeling in the world as a missionary, when your teachings
work and contacting lead you to someone who has the questions that our message
answers... it's cool!!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Rubi is progressing towards her date for the 10th, but she's
in the middle of graduation stuff so it's been hard for her to come to church.
But I'm confident that she'll make the date!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I'm super happy to be here on the mission. I have like super
mixed feelings about coming home but I really know that this is the true church
of Jesus Christ. El la dirige y se han restaurado todas las cosas necesarias
para poder regresar a la presencia de Dios un dia. Se que El vive y sufrio por
nosotros para proveer el camino para ser personas nuevas y limpias del pecado!
Somos hijos e hijas especiales de Nuestro Padre Celestial y el quiere que
lleguemos a ser como el un dia! Amo poder servir como representante de
Jesucristo.<o:p></o:p></div>

Welp, this week was rough. We worked super hard and saw some
really amazingly cool miracles but I'll just tell ya right now I don't feel
like typing today hahahahaha<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We're teaching a less active member from the DR who's here
for like 6 months living with his wife and daughter who aren't members. So
we've gone by and taught like twice now and it's one of the most interesting
things ever. Because the wife doesn't quite believe that Jesus Christ is the
son of God it makes the lessons really interesting. It's kinda like teaching
Herbert again because she asks tons of questions and we really have to think in
order to answer them. But it's all good, the daughter named Angie has a son
that's 5 years old named DiAngelo and he's super cool. But at the end of our
last lesson she asked "so how can I know if this is true?" which is
like the best question an investigator can ask. So she's got some potential!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We found a lady this week named Lillian and she told us that
she's Catholic but "doesn't reject the word of God" So we taught her
and it was a super solid lesson and she felt the spirit as we talked about the
restoration and then she says "I know that God must have sent you to me
for a reason" and then she accepted a date for the 3rd of June! She's
super cool and really sincere and has a whole family that we're going to visit
tonight!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Michael is 18 and has a lot of interest in the gospel. He
understands everything really well and it's just cool to see how it's making
sense in his head. He's just such a good guy and wants to do what's right, I
really hope he can be baptized in May. He has a date for the 28th so we gotta
get him to church!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We've faced a lot of obstacles lately as we've tried to
teach more young people... there's always some kind of family member that gets
in the way of their progress, but it's been fun to work around the obstacles
and see how their testimonies shine.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This week I was able to do an exchange with Elder Hortin in
Isabela and it was really cool to be with him. Last time I did an exchange in
Isabela I was with Elder Glissmeyer and we found a 24ish year old girl named
Isabel who lived in Utah for a year on an internship and had gone to church
once and has friends that are Mormons and will be going back to Utah in the
winter to work and live, so she received us really well. This last Saturday I
was able to go back and teach her again and it's just really cool how the
simple invitation that her friend in Utah made to come to church and receive a
Book of Mormon has helped her to receive the gospel here and be really
interested in it. Honestly even though the attempt of her friend in Utah to
share the gospel with her might not have born fruits at that time, I know we
were led to her on the exchange and that she was being prepared to receive the
gospel here in Puerto Rico! She's super cool and we're hoping that soon she'll
make the decision to be baptized! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So always make the effort to share the gospel and don't get
down when you don't see the results right away! <o:p></o:p></div>

I WAS SO TIRED THIS WEEK.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tuesday and Wednesday we spent like 22 hours in the car in
total and man that just sucks the life out of me. But the rest of the week was
pretty cool! We were able to set a lot of baptismal dates this week with new
people, and we found a lot of young people to teach and work with!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We have Michael who's 18 and is a gymnast and actually is
friends with a member. He accepted a date for the 28th of May.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Adrian is 25 and lives in a house that Hermano Olmo has
rented out in Sabana Grande. He's a really cool kid and knows a ton about the
bible and stuff, so it's really easy to teach him. He came to church yesterday!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Juan is the Dominican who's super cool and came to church 2
weeks ago. This week we weren't able to see him because he was in the DR
running in a competition all week. But we heard from the other Dominicans that
live in the apartment that he won his races! So that's cool. We're still
working to get him baptized this week if everything goes well.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
German is a guy that's like 45 and really wants to be baptized!
He is working on quitting smoking and drinking coffee so that he can be
baptized on the 20th. He wasn't able to make it to church because his uncle
came and picked him up at 8am yesterday unexpectedly. Next week!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We're now starting to work again with Rubi, who is the
daughter of a recent convert family that wasn't baptized with everyone else.
She's insanely smart and knows everything about the lessons and stuff. She just
has to recognize her answer I guess. Her date is June 10th since she won't be
in San German for a few weeks due to registration in the college in Ponce where
she'll be studying soon.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The zone has a goal to hit 27 baptisms in May! We had a
total of 7 in April so we just have to quadruple the baptisms in order to get
the 27! But really the zone has changed a lot lately and we already have 31
baptismal dates for May, just waiting for the missionaries to get all their
investigators to church... That's the hard part! But with lots of faith we'll
definitely be able to see miracles in each area.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Herbert is still Herbert... super funny and always making
jokes! Sometimes he seems to be like too smart for some of the lessons in
church because he thinks too in depth hahahahahaa and then the teacher has to
find some super in depth way to explain the example or something. Always on your toes with Herbert!<o:p></o:p></div>

It's been super crazy lately. This last week was pretty nuts
but I think it was one of the most important weeks of my mission as far as
learning and working goes. We did an exchange Monday night thru Tuesday, and
then another Tuesday night thru Wednesday and it was just super nuts. We were
like all over the west side of the island working with different missionaries
trying to help everyone see the goal of the mission and get excited about the
work. I did an exchange one day with Elder Perez in San German, and the next
day I was in Aguadilla with Elder Mancilla. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Herbert got baptized! That was a serious battle. On Monday
we found out that his heart was enlarged and he wasn't getting proper blood
flow through his body. So we were super worried, like what if this old man dies
on us before we can get him baptized! We prayed a ton that things would go
well. Then we visited him and found out that he was probably going to need open
heart surgery to fix his problems... Even worse. At this point we were just
scared that we were going to lose our friend Herbert, because the outcome
didn't sound very good! We visited him on Tuesday and got him to realize that
we love him and God loves him and has given him the opportunity to be baptized
and change his life. So he committed to be baptized, but we couldn't get him to
accept a date. On Wednesday they went back to teach him after he came back from
the doctor and Elder Arteaga and Elder Flores told me that he accepted a date
for Saturday! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Turns out, he went to the doctor and he doesn't have to have
the open heart surgery! They let him go without any problems! It was seriously
a miracle... We have no idea how the results changed but I think it all had to
do with his desire to be baptized and make this covenant with God. So, we got
him ready and on Saturday he was baptized! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After he was baptized they gave Herbert the opportunity to
bear his testimony and I think it blew everybody's socks off... He got up and
just talked so powerfully and really you could tell and see the conversion that
he went through as he made the decision to be baptized, it was super cool. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Also second part of the miracle of Herbert's baptism: I
don't think that we would have been able to achieve his baptism if it wasn't
for Elder Flores. He came in and was able to give all the right answers and
help Herbert see that this was the right thing to do. The Lord put Elder Flores
with us so that we could see this miracle in our area!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Over the two weeks that we were with Elder Flores we saw him
change a ton. From an elder that wanted to go home and abandon the mission, to
an elder that is now determined to make the most of his mission and fulfill the
purpose that the Lord has given him here in Puerto Rico. We had tons of
spiritual experiences just talking with him every night and it all gave me a
really new perspective on the mission and our work here!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Oh, and Juan the Dominican runner came to church on Sunday
and loved it! So we're hoping that he can progress towards his date for the
14th!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On one of the exchanges, I was walking home to the Aguadilla
house with Elder Mancilla and on the side of the road was a guy with a bloody
leg and a 4 foot alligator all duct taped up on the side of the freeway! I
guess he saw it, stopped and got out of his Mercedes Benz and tackled the
alligator... and apparently it got a good chunk out of his leg. But he caught
it, hahahahaha.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That same day as I was in Aguadilla and Elder Arteaga and
Flores and Higgins were in San German, they were walking over a bridge when
they saw what looked like a horse drowning in the river. So they went down and
found an 18 year old kid pulling a yellow rope connected to his horse in the
water... AND THE HORSE WAS SWIMMING hahahahaahaha so they taught the kid right
there by the river and set a baptismal date with him!! Crazy things happen in
PR.<o:p></o:p></div>

This week was really interesting. On Tuesday we got a new
companion. So we're in a trio. His name's Elder Flores and from what we
understand he was put with us because he made a mistake and wanted to go home.
But after a week of working with us, today he called President and said that he
wants to stay in the mission! It was really cool to be there.. we don't know
what made him change his mind but we're just proud that he wants to stay!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Oh yeah and Natasha got baptized!! It was really cool. The
baptism was packed and we had a lot of people there participating in it!
Natasha was seriously a miracle... she just got here from the states and it was
really cool to see the blessings of the gospel in her life as she learned and
accepted the doctrine of the gospel! Her and her family will be huge parts of
the ward here in San German!<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
We're teaching a 19 year old Dominican guy named Juan, he's
part of a program that's here representing a few countries as runners... like
these guys run like 10 meters per second. Idk what that is in US terms but it's
fast. One of the guys he lives with is the 2nd fastest runner in the DR. You
could say we're hanging with the famous guys. They're like Olympic runners...
But anyway Juan has a baptismal date for the 14th of May and he's super excited
for it! It's super fun to teach Dominicans... One of them is a super tall
Guatemalan!! They're all really cool.<o:p></o:p></div>

This week was crazy!! Seriously it was a nutty week.
Everything I didn't expect to happen, happened. Fasten your seat belts.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Monday was a normal Pday. Nothing too special. I don't even
remember what we did. Seriously this whole week has been a big mess in my head.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tuesday we went to Aguadilla for the District Meeting, which
is like an hour from hour house. On the way home, IT STARTED TO POUR. But pour
like flooding the streets. Like the water on the freeway was like a foot deep
and the Boricuas were going crazy. We got back to San German late because
nobody seems to like to drive in the rain... I feel like that's a skill that's
only acquired in Oregon honestly. But we got back and we went and taught
Natasha and had a solid lesson. Then we had to take off again to go to San
Sebastian for a meeting with President Boucher and the stake president. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Wednesday we went out and did some service with a member in
the morning. All was good until we had done about half an hour of work and we
were moving branches and stuff that was in a pile next to where we needed to
work to put up the fence we were making. And all of a sudden I heard a bee so I
ignored it but it followed me everywhere I went. I lost my patience and started
to wave my arms around trying to hit it and kill it or something... honestly
Idk why I thought that was a good idea... because then I heard like tons of
bees hahhhahahaa and they started to sting me!! The others that were there
yelled "stand still and they won't do anything to you!" Hahahahaa
that was a mistake. They were already super mad and they started to sting
everyone and then all at once we went running and screaming up the hill to the
house and ended up standing under a sprinkler trying to kill the bees with the
water. It was a real rough hour there as we were fighting with all the bees
trying to hit them all with water before they got to us and could sting us. One
bee got me good right on the eyelid. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Later in the day we had a super cool lesson with a couple
named Angel and Michelle. They're super awesome! We talked about the plan of
salvation and they understood really well. We took Hermano Olmo with us and man
the man knows his doctrine!! Like Herbert, sometimes he looks like he's falling
asleep in the lessons, but then he hears something he likes and boom he pulls
out his Book of Mormon and the thing is marked up and down and he just goes off
explaining in a way that helps everybody understand better. Olmo is amazing.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thursday I woke up and my eye was so swollen I couldn't open
it. So I started taking Benadryl and icing the eye, at like 8:30 I was knocked
out in the chair at my desk, hahaha, the Benadryl took full effect! The day was
kinda rough but we did get to teach Herbert. He was super excited to be
baptized in that lesson and we finally finished teaching everything that he
needs to know!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thursday night my eye was open and a little less swollen,
but Friday morning I woke up and it was swollen shut again! So I just said
alright I'm done, and we went to the hospital. Everyone just stared at me weird
as I walked in hahahaha but they hooked me up to an IV and started pumping
Benadryl and an anti-inflammatory into me. And man that was literally the best 3
hours of sleep I've had in a looooong time. It was awesome. It just knocked me
out<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Saturday Herbert had his baptismal interview. He passed! But
he has some doubts about tithing because he literally doesn't have money to pay
a full tithe like he wants to. So he didn't want to get baptized. But on Sunday
he came to church with a white shirt and tie!! It was super cool to see him in
church all dressed up. We're pretty confident that he'll be baptized this next
weekend with Natasha. It'll be cool.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On Sunday... Wow Sunday was a mess. Church was really good!
After church we ate with Nestor and then left for Trujillo Alto for a mission
meeting. We got there on time and it was a super good meeting! The spirit was
super strong. It was just a big testimony meeting about Christ and the
Atonement. But on the way home... We were passing Caguas at like 8pm- already
like 30 minutes from Trujillo Alto going home, when the Cabo Rojo sisters call
us and say, "Hey guys we're lost" and so we're like alrighty where
are you? And they were SUPER LOST and we had to turn around and go find them.
It was a mess. We got home at 11:30 after finding them and leading them back to
the west side of the island. Goodness gracious. But it was a fun adventure.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I know that my Savior lives. He loves me and suffered for
all of my sins, so that I can be clean and return to live with my Heavenly
Father someday. His love is infinite. He suffered, he was crucified, and he was
resurrected on the third day. He lives and leads His church on the earth today.
As a representative of Jesus Christ, I testify that He is our Lord and Savior.
He lives and loves unconditionally!<o:p></o:p></div>

This week was super cool! Honestly we've been working just
to see miracles. And it's paid off. It has really paid off. When we act with
REAL faith, the Lord can work miracles in our lives. But if we just settle,
then there's no faith and there's no miracles. NEVER STOP PROGRESSING. To build
our faith, it requires that we take leaps of faith every day.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Man MIRACLES are awesome! Herbert Santiago, he's 82. But the
dude is progressing a ton and I truly believe that it's because of the
testimonies of the members that have gone with us. Honestly in every lesson I
just feel like giving up because it always sounds like he's not going to accept
what we teach him and ask him to do... but then when you least expect it, he
makes some comment out of the blue and we're like, “YES THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO
HEAR.” Example: We taught him the Sabbath day. But he wasn't really into it. He
was like, "well I have my agency and I can do what I want. If I don't like
red apples I don't have to eat them." And I was like oh crap he's not
going to commit to keep the Sabbath day holy. Then at the end he says,
"but I know it's right and I'm going to church on Sunday!" So that was
awesome. And he came and he loved it again!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Second miracle. Julio is a recent convert of Elder Corales.
He got baptized like a month before I got to San German. And now he's the
assistant to the Ward Mission Leader. He helps a lot when he can to visit
people and he's been a huge help with Herbert! But the best part of the week
was on Saturday. We had a meeting about the missionary work and Nestor (the
ward mission leader) says, "ok so who have we got preparing to be baptized?"
And we mentioned all our investigators. Then Julio says "write down
'Natasha Gonzalez' please" and I was like WHAT but nobody else knew who
she was because I had met her before. We were already going out with Julio to
do visits after the meeting, so while we were out we stopped by his house and
talked with Natasha. She was super sick so we gave her a Priesthood blessing
and talked a little, and just ended by inviting her to church. Then in the car
back home, Julio says "yeah Natasha told me she wants to be Mormon"
And we just kinda sat there like struck dumb hahaha. On Sunday, she came to
church and loved it and got signed up for a young single adult trip they're
doing. But get this. She came to church completely healthy. She said that 30
minutes after we left, she was fine. She didn't have to take any of the
medicine they had bought her. She couldn’t even talk when we were there, but
she came to church talking like nothing had ever happened. The Priesthood is
real!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So after church we went and visited them and taught the
Restoration and it was a super solid lesson. She's super prepared and has some
of the best help that anyone could ever have as someone learning more about the
church. She accepted a date for the 22nd! Honestly there are miracles all over
the place if we just have faith and work for them!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
AND the zone has a goal of 22 baptisms in April. Which
sounds kinda like a long shot considering we only got like 4 last month. The
last week on March, the zone had 0 baptismal dates for April. Now we have 29
dates as a zone and people are pumped to reach the goal. It's been really
rewarding to work lately. There's just been a lot of cool stuff happening!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I love the mission. I know that this is His true church. He
died for us and was resurrected so that we too can be resurrected. I know that
He is the head of this church and guides it through a living prophet. All the
truths and ordinances we have today, were restored through living prophets. We
truly are blessed to know the truth! Happy Easter!!<o:p></o:p></div>

GENERAL CONFERENCE ESTA BRUTAL hahaha no but really it just
hits you in the heart!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This week was a week of small miracles, being able to teach
some people that have a lot of potential. So here's an update:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Herbert Santiago: He's 82 and he's super smart and even
though it seems like he sleeps in our lessons, he's always paying attention. We
were super worried about teaching him the Word of Wisdom this week because he
says he's a salve to the coffee... and he has a baptismal date for the 15th.
But we taught it and then at the end of the lesson asked him "so... will
you commit to it?" And then his granddaughter walks in and says,
"Herbert doesn't drink coffee. He's gone a whole week without it!"
LIKE WHOA WHAT A MIRACLE!! So we were able to talk a little more and he's
really really wanting to be ready to be baptized on the 15th! I know that it
was our preparation and concern for him that made it possible for him to feel
the need to drop the coffee a week early. Still don't know why he did it, but
it's an answer to our prayers.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Carlos Reyes: He's about 40 years old. I contacted him with
Elder Corales about 3 weeks ago and we didn't have a lot of contact. He was
really interested in the Book of Mormon. So the other day I just texted him and
we got him to agree to come to the church for a lesson. And man it was powerful
teaching the Restoration in the chapel to a man who's completely open to it.
But he didn't want to commit to a baptismal date. Work in progress ;)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Jean Luis: He's a new 19 year old we found the other day. We
taught a solid Restoration to him and he seemed to really think about the
possibility of having an eternal family. He has a lot of potential as well!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Conference really in the end I think just made me love the
mission even more... The strength in being able to testify that we have a
living prophet on the earth is amazing. I've felt the truth in that statement
as I've testified of in and heard the testimonies of others this week. I love
being a part of the true church of Jesus Christ. I know that it may be hard at
times, but for that reason the prophet and the apostles gave us direct
revelation on how to combat the obstacles!! It's true and all we have to do is
simply live the principles of the gospel.<o:p></o:p></div>

This week was really good! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tuesday night we got home at like 9:30 after being on the
road all day! We had transfers, so it was just a crazy day. And there are 21
new missionaries in Puerto Rico! So I was in charge of driving some of them
around from President's house to the chapel where they meet their trainers and
stuff. It was fun and stressful. But it's always cool to see the new
missionaries and feel their love for the work!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We worked super hard during the week and we saw the fruits.
We worked a lot with the members and taught an old guy named Herbert. He's been
an investigator for a while and had a baptismal date but now he has another one
and came to church on Sunday and loved it! It was really cool to have him
there, he was super happy.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We've really been working to help the Young Single Adults
work more in the work, and this week I think we saw more excitement from them
and we were able to also find some cool younger people that have potential to
progress in the gospel.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Today we had a Zone activity and we got to play water
balloon volleyball and some other games in Mayaguez in a park close to the
beach. It was really cool to just laugh and relax with the zone and have fun
together. As a zone we came to the conclusion that we want to baptize 22 people
in April. That's a huge number and has never been achieved before... so here we
go! We really got to break it down and talk about how we're going to do it. So
we're really positive about this goal and we're hoping we can achieve it!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Elder Arteaga is a really good companion (my new companion,
he’s from Mexico). He wants to work hard and is really centered on working with
the members and doing activities and stuff. So we're going to try and do more
activities to see if we can get a younger crowd to come to church!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This truly is His work and I can see it more than ever. Now
is the time that the Lord needs our help to bring to pass all that he has
planned for His children. I know that this is His true church.<o:p></o:p></div>

Man I can't keep track of the time anymore! I swear I try to
do something and all of a sudden the time is gone or gets used in something
else. I have no idea how President Boucher can manage the whole mission. This
week was full of surprises and some let downs, but we did see a really cool
miracle. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Things have been rough as a zone. Only the sister
missionaries in the zone have been baptizing. The elders in the zone haven't
had a baptism in over 3 months. Which is rough, really rough. So we've been
trying to figure out what's going on... but things just continue the same!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The baptism we were supposed to have on Saturday fell
through. We had a 9 year old boy lined up to be baptized but apparently his
family wasn't ready to support him or something... we passed by like 3 times in
2 days and nobody would answer us or tell us what was going on. Basically they
kinda shut us out. But hopefully now we understand the situation a little
better and now we can work a little slower to prepare him to be baptized.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On Sunday we out to another city that I had never worked in
and we felt that we had to talk with a dad and his 16 year old son who were
playing a pretty serious 1v1 game of basketball. So we kinda stopped the game
and talked with them and they were super cool! The dad was like in love with
the Book of Mormon and wants to come to church and looks like they both have
some serious potential! So in the midst of so many distractions and the
craziness of the week and the stress we have encima, I think we found a little
miracle and we'll see what comes of it!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On Saturday we got to go to a conference with Elder Andersen
of the Quorum of the 12, and it was awesome! The spirit was so strong there. I
also got to shake his hand so no big deal... But he talked a lot about helping
the Young Single Adults to bring their friends to church and it's so true! They
know everybody and are way better at talking to their friends than we are! So
that's our goal, is work more with the YSA. Literally you could just feel how
inspired his talk was... Goodness gracious it just makes you love the mission.
After the conference I felt like I never want the mission to end!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I know that this is His church. We are the only ones that
can do His work because we have the truth! The Restored Gospel is what every
person needs, even if they don't recognize it right now.<o:p></o:p></div>

This week was so hectic. It's been really mentally straining
lately to try and get everything done plus work in our own area. With Zone
meetings and meetings with President Boucher and exchanges and all kinds of
stuff just make it really stressful. But we manage, good life practice I guess,
hahaha.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So last week we had a huge miracle with Yaniel (the 9 year
old boy) coming to church. We went and visited him again this week and we were
able to set a baptismal date with him for the 18th! The only problem is that
like 80% of his family are less active members so they don't really give him
the support he deserves. He really only gets support from an aunt and an uncle
who were the ones that brought him to church. But then yesterday they didn't
even come to church! So Yaniel didn't get to come and we have to see how we're
going to finish the prep to get him baptized.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On Tuesday we were in Mayaguez for a Zone meeting and
President showed up and helped us a lot with the teaching in the meeting. He
always brings a spirit that we can never nail. Then we talked with him about
the zone and went back to San German for like an hour, had an appointment with
Herbert (who's our 83 year old investigator) and then we went back up to
Mayaguez and met with President again to talk about the zone over dinner at
Denny’s. Which was really good. Then we went up to San Sebastian to a meeting
with the Stake President to talk about the work. Then we went out to Cabo Rojo
for an exchange and I stayed there working with Elder Bradford. It was a pretty
solid exchange, there's just lots of problems in the zone right now. Not a lot
of success.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Saturday we were both in Aguadilla all day working with the
elders there. It was super hot and sunny. Which killed my face. I didn't have
any sun block- not that I usually use it anyway... but my face got destroyed in
the sun! It was really cool though working in Aguadilla. We found one guy that
was super cool. We walked past his house once, then walked past it again and I
felt like we should talk to him but we didn't stop. Then his son kicked a ball
into the street and I went and got it and we had the opportunity to talk with
him and he was super cool! Just the small miracles make the day worth it,
especially when you listen to the spirit!</div>

Honestly this week was like the week of prayers being
answered. We've worked so hard lately to try and find a baptism and finally our
prayers were answered but it took a ton of work!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We spent a whole week from 9 to 10:20pm searching through
old area books and records that the missionaries have made in the past, looking
for people that would have interest in the gospel and could be baptized in
March. Friday night at like 10pm we finally found what we thought we were
looking for, but it was a long shot. So we went out on Saturday and found the
family and it turns out the family had been living outside our area for like 6
years and just the other day moved back to San German! So we found them and
found the little boy and asked his aunt and uncle to bring him to church on
Sunday. AND THEY BROUGHT HIM TO CHURCH AND HE LOVED IT. It was super cool. Just
small little miracles!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We also found two really cool couples in places that I had
no idea we would find them. We were out in the middle of nowhere and found
these 2 couples that were super cool.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That was the week really. Just lots of work and searching
and finally it paid off and we saw a miracle!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I know that prayers really do get answered, just not in our
time!<o:p></o:p></div>

I was sick all week. That basically sums up the week! Hahaha.
BUT WE ALL PRESS ON IN THE WORK OF THE LORD<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tuesday morning I woke up with a sore throat and thought it
was just a little bug so I kept going, and we had a really rough day. Really
nothing happened. Tuesday night I went to Aguadilla for an exchange and that
was the absolute worst night of my life. With a headache that I thought was
going to kill me! I didn't sleep at all. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Wednesday we worked super hard, me and Elder Higgins, and we
had a pretty good day but man I felt like I was going to collapse on the
concrete. We did so much contacting and the sun was extremely hot and
torturous. I think that really describes the weather lately!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thursday we contacted TODO EL MUNDO and set up lots of
appointments and found a cool old guy that said that like 3 years ago he almost
got baptized in the Mormon church. But he's old and almost fell asleep in the
lesson. We'll see what happens, he could be our miracle this transfer!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Friday we had a day full of lessons and I was still sick!
This was the best and funniest part of the week for us. We had a lessons with a
couple named Edwin and Yamilet and we went with a member named Rafa. He shared
a super solid testimony and it was super good. But they didn't commit to come
to church. The funny part was that the ward had an activity at the same time we
were in the lesson and somehow the missionaries got put in charge of
everything! We were about to teach and we get calls from like 7 members
"hey where are you guys and why haven't you opened the chapel???" We
were like "well... we're teaching and didn't know we were in charge!"<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Saturday we had a good day, it's just been rough with lots
of plans falling through and people not wanting to make commitments!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Anyway, life is good even when you're sick and contacting
all day every day and it's super hot and nobody wants to make commitments! It's
the Lord's work, why can't we be happy??<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Remember to say your prayers, read the scriptures, and go out
and work with the missionaries. It's part of your salvation and theirs!<o:p></o:p></div>

MAN TIME IS FLYING<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It's nuts how fast time is flying on the mission right now.
The weeks just go by in an instant!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This week, not a lot happened but it's always interesting. I
think the best part was when we went to visit Luis Montalvo, who's an
investigator that we've had for a while but he has problems with drugs and
stuff. The elders found him here like 10 months ago but they really just pushed
him to stop using drugs and he didn't understand the need to be baptized or any
of that. So now we're really focusing on his testimony and it was amazing to
see the change in him. He's been reading and completing all of his assignments
and it's truly made a difference in his life. He told us on Saturday that just
simply reading the Book of Mormon has made him happier and has given him the
desire to change and be better. I really felt the spirit as he explained that
he feels happier and less stressed as he reads. And I know it's true! Reading
the Book of Mormon truly will bring us the happiness and answers that we need
in our life!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On Friday we had a Zone Conference in Mayaguez and it went
really well. I was kinda feeling iffy about how I taught but everyone said it
went really well. The cool part was when Hna Boucher announced that we're going
to do a special Book of Mormon read up until Easter about the Atonement and
life of Christ. As I've started to read, I can already feel again again that it's
true and that Christ is our Savior!<o:p></o:p></div>

No but really this week was kinda a struggle for us. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Monday, all our plans fell through. So we went and found an
old contact we had made like a month ago. They let us in and we taught them but
it was one of the most unfocused lessons I've ever been in. The grandma was
completely deaf and didn't understand a thing, the kids were nuts and the
couple we were teaching just wasn't fully there. But, they said that if they
received an answer, they would be baptized. So like sweet! We thought...<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We had transfers on Tuesday and so we were out of the house
from 8am until 9:30pm driving all over the island taking missionaries to their
new areas. It was cool. But not an excuse for not having success in the week!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So Wednesday we went to an area that we had never been to
before and began to contact. We taught a less active who apparently has a
problem with someone in the ward and because of that, he now goes to a
Protestant church or something. Although he said he knows the church is true.
Long story short, it was a really long day of contacting and we didn't end up
finding any new investigators. We were kinda tired walking the long trek back
to the main part of town when we saw a couple walking on the side of the road
like by the exit from the freeway. I'll just tell you that this is a really
weird place to see people walking. So we talked with them and they were suuper
cool! It was just one of those contacts where you just say "wow they seem
really prepared".<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thursday our plans also all fell through! It was just
turning into a rough week!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Friday I was on an exchange with Elder Bradford here in San
German. And we had super sweet lessons planned but then in the end, nobody was
home, the members couldn't help us, etc. Rough day. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But then we got to Saturday and that's when we really saw
the hand of the Lord in the work! We had to leave for stake conference at like
4:15 to help present something in the 5pm session, but we felt that before we
left we should visit a guy we had taught a week ago, but the second appointment
had fallen through. And he lives far away. So before we left we made it out to
his house and the dude was sad. Super sad. Turns out a friend of his had just
died and it hit them all really hard. He let us share a message with him and in
the end we had him smiling and laughing about a chicken! He accepted a
baptismal date for the 28th of February and is actually married already. So
we're hoping that when we get the chance to talk with his wife this week, that
she'll be on board and they can be a little 2-3 week miracle!! I know we were
told to pass by his house for a reason. I know he felt the spirit.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sunday was also a really cool day for us! It was about 7 at
night and we had had a pretty decent day, but we were in an area that was just
kinda dead. So we continued contacting and then we remember a house we had
contacted a while ago. It always smelled like cigarettes and honestly I didn't
really wanna go inside... I judged pretty hard for the smell. BUT MAN WHEN WE
GOT IN THERE TEACHING IT WAS LIKE THE RESTORATION OF THE GOSPEL CAME ALIVE FOR
THEM. They understood the Restoration and the need for it so well. Jose, who's
about 55 I think, was super interested and accepted the baptismal date for the
28th as well! Super cool lesson and I know now that God does not discriminate
on any level! He want's all to hear the gospel!! <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I know that the Lord guides the path of His missionaries and
that He is preparing them to receive us. This is His true church and it is
guided by a living prophet!<o:p></o:p></div>

Quote from President Boucher about the struggling Mayaguez Zone this week "the island of Tortola, that has one companionship of
elderly missionaries, baptized more this last weekend than the Mayaguez
Stake." <o:p></o:p></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
IT'S BEEN ROUGH BUT WE LOVE THE WORK. We know that if we
give it our all, the Lord will bless us!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Love you all!<o:p></o:p></div>
