March 28

well 8 down. 16 more. 33.33333333% ect. left of guatemala. wow does time move here and there...

this last week i have had an amazing expirence! made my mission. well. we started to teach a guy whos family are members and they are just waiting on him. i went on divisions with one of the Asistants. it was his previous investigator so he wanted to see what was up. we went to their house with one plan. fetcha! or baptismal date!  well we went in there got to know them a little then started to teach my favorite thing! the doctorine of christ. 1. faith, repentance, baptism, gift of the holy ghost, and endure to the end.

well started going on and on we asked their 10 year old daughter what do you want your dad to do? i want you to fill the baptismal font! and then we asked what would you like for your family! before i say this i just want to bag on the states for a second. kids here mature so much faster then back home. sorry but its true. she said i want to enter into the temple and be sealed to my family for eturnity. by this time i was fighting off tears the wife was crying and the little girl was crying into her fathers shoulders.

we then asked him if he wanted to follow christ and let him in to his life and he said yes.

this has been the most spiritual expirence i have had in my mission was very grateful that i was able to have this. and its helped me everyday after that. we baptized him this past sunday. yesterday! i wish you could all of been there for it. was so special! mission is great and teaching me alot.

how are things is this area? as of right now were looking around for more people! im stoked for general conference and for all the good things that come with that.

well times up really! i love you all!!
