  Elder gabriel and I with Luis and Dina, some investigators, on his last day here

 here we are with Isabel Varela, who we always talk about

Wow i´m so happy for the family and for Brooke and sam!!! The baby looks super adorable, i teared up a little when I saw the pictures. You have to show her pictures of me every now and then so that she will recognize me when I´m back.

Well i´m doing great here in colombia. this week i had a great experience in sacrament meeting, in the teestimonies. There is a member named alfonso Martinez who was branch president about 6 years ago. when they released him he never went to church again. We really had to work with him a ton, but he has gone to church for 2 weeks now. Yesterday all his family chared their testimonies. His wife talked about how she had felt super alone for all those years, but is now super happy again. Their son is like 10 years ald and started to share his testimony but started to cry and ran off. really it was super marvillous to see the whole family in church again, together. It made me feel so happy to participate in the work of salvation, with families. I might or might not have cried as well.

there was a great family in church that we found this week. The husband/father didn´t go, but the mom and her 2 kids went. In Gospel Principles class she stood up to persent herself and said that she has plans to et baptized very soon. She has a date for August 2nd  and is super excited.

Sorry i´m a little short on time and i don´t know much else to say about this week. my companion has had some difficulties with adjusting to the new way of doing things in this mission, but we are slowly progressing there. the area has been really affected by it and i´m kind of worried about it, but we are just taking things one step at a time.

I love you all.
