Yup Miguel was baptized and I baptized him!! It was such a great expirience for me even tho beforehand i was so stinkin nervous i was gonna drop him in the water or say the prayer wrong. But I nailed it! It was way way awesome and it looks like the rest of his family will follow very very soon. I love that family so much, really spiritual expirience, i wish you all could have been there. Sorry i would send pictures but the computer wont load all my pictures, ive tried everything i can and i can´t get them to load, im gonna have to go to a different place from now on. This week was kind of different because elder mitchell and basically everyone else who wasnt new had a meeting so i went on divisions with Elder Nicol from the mtc and Elder Carabajal from the Argentina. It was so sweet, we had a ton of fun and got some work done. Elder Carabajal is so funny, really good Elder he really knows how to teach. We were able to give a blessing to a guy in Carabajal´s ward that has cancer, it was a really good expirience and the guy has such a strong testimony of the church even tho all that is going on. Reminded me of the our family with Rae and Dad and the Hill family. Trust in God, that´s something that Joseph Smith said a ton but it is so profound and true. So at the meetings president macarthur wants to double the number of baptizms in the mission. The church also has 9 new lessons for the missionaries to study. We are really focusing on teaching the pure doctrine of Christ. Elder Mitchell and I have tried some of the new things in our contacts and lessons and they are so sweet, it makes it more like a conversation and I feel more like I´m helping the person then just teaching a lesson. Haha the dog story, so we went to go to work in another ward, all of the missionaries in our zone and on the way there was two dogs fighting andt this old lady was trying to beat them off with her cane so her two dogs wouldnt kill the other, so Elder Jaime grabbed the cane and completely missed the dogs and busted the cane on the cement. That old lady was so pissed and she was swearing up a storm! It was all i could do to not laugh. I got my package! I love my ring and the peach rings and the missionary cards and of course my rope. Which i ended up roping elder mayans in a talent show that our ward had saturday night, i had a sweet poncho adn a sombrerro on that i borrowed from hermano facondi! Ill try to send pics of that too when i can get a better computer! I did the butterfly then flipped in on Elder Mayans head and caught him. thanks for the pics too, everyone is fascinated by them. Oh branding and dehorning cattle sounds sweet, like i told some of the people in the ward i´ve gone from roping cattle to souls for two years. Happy Birthday Kiki!!! I almost used your favorite scripture para dar un palo en Marcela. That means throw down on Marcela. She was complaining about how people keep the commandments so i thought about it and found DC 122 were it talks about the gapping jaws of hell swollowing you up and how it would be for your own good and how christ descended below all of that. ¿Eres tu mejor que el? Art tho greater that he?(C So that´s my favorite scripture for the week. Things here are great, time is really flying by fast, its almost been four months, summer at home is about over. Gosh that´s so weird to think of. I still imagine things at home being the same, but they are all changing. i think thats one of the biggest things that people fear is change, but if you take what you´ve got and make the best of it you will grow as a person, that´s what I´m attempting. Well thats all for this week, I´m sure next week will be even better. Alright love you all Thank you, keep me in your thoughts and prayers, i can´t do anything without the Lord´s help.
Wuv,
Elder Chance Roy
