Well today we had plan de zone, and it went really well! Me and my companion had a good ping pong going and set some really good goals! Later we went out for ice cream and played PHASE 10 and UNO with a few of the elders here. We then wrote to our families, that was really nice! We did not have many lessons, but we passed by a family that we had been visiting and something funny happened. This man walked by the window and started teasing the dad in front of everyone because he did not have a shirt on. He said shut up in little words. The man then started to ask if we could share a message of God with him, as he did the son, who has 4 years, said VAYENCE DE MI CASA! In English that is GET OUT OF MY HOUSE! Then slammed the window in his face! I tried not to laugh! That's about all folks! I love you good night

Well today was soooo good! We started an inter change and I’m with Elder Burnham from Arizona. He is 6 foot 5 so no one tried to rob us today! We started with Edwardo today and it was great, he accepted an invite to be baptized the 24th of enero! Woohoo but please keep him in your prayers that he will be ready on that day. later we went to a family home evening. I did a few little hand magic tricks for her 4 kids, later I told them to bring their friends. They brought 2 more and I did another, and we spoke in English and they loved it, and I told them go bring your friends, and they brought 2 more. By the time it was ready to start the family home evening there was about 24 kids in the house! it was so crazy and really crammed in there, but an amazing experience! I love you good night

Today was a good day, we had a visit with someone who is named mery. She is really good! Later we passed by a family on the street and we started to teach them. Later he invited us in to eat and we had a dinner with them! It was so nice of them to do that and it made my day. Later we went to a meeting with president and we had no money to buy a taxi and we were late, so in our proselytizing clothes we ran like 10 long blocks. We got there and we were so sweat, but President paid for our taxi home... I felt like a kid asking my dad for money… but what a saint! I love you good night

Today was an amazing day, we had an intercambio with the area Kennedy. Elder Campana is from my MTC group and he is a Spanish speaker. He was roasting me on how bad my Spanish was... so funny that Elder. We had an amazing lesson with this guy and his cousin. They were arguing about who knew more about the restoration and they were both super smart and each one taught a lot of the lesson. They accepted invites to be baptized and are also coming to church on Sunday. I love you, good night.

Well we are missio-neros in money and investigators. We had a long day of walking, which also means a day of meditation and prayer with oneself. We taught a family of Venezuelans and invited them to be baptized. They said no but I'm sure their hearts will grow softer with time. We did have the opportunity to go out teaching with Sister Nely Cotrina. She is so fun to be around, reminds me of Julie Turner! Ha-ha not much more happened today, I love you good night

Well today was a good day, we only had 2 investigators come to church, and we did not even invite them this week... the others who said that they would show up never did. But we did get the chance to visit Luz Delgado, she is a recent convert, and today her blind son picked up a new hobby... sword twirling! He walked into the room with a machete and a steak knife swinging it around and almost took off his mom's ear! Later she was explaining how stressed she was, her other son was drawing, and she said he was the only normal and perfect kid in the family. He tilted his head to look up at.
