We have 2 baptisms planned for this month, and we are really excited because we think they will happen, we're actually really sure that they will happen! One of them is named Marjoree and the other investigator is named Caled. They are awesome and have huge testimonies! Our goal is to have their baptisms on the 12th of November! We will do it, I promise you all!

I love you all and I invite you all to read D and C 98 it is awesome!

I promise you all that God listens to our prayers. He is always listening to us and he wants what is best for us.  He will help us through everything. He listens to every prayer we offer, I promise you all.

Well hello there friends and family! I love ya'all and I testify that this work is real!

So this week we found an investigator whose name is Walter. He told us we found him at the perfect time. His wife and daughters had just left him. We taught him about Jesus Christ and the loving power of the Atonement. We each gave him a hug and he just started crying. It was such an amazing experience for me. I know he is chosen to accept the Gospel.

I want to testify to you all that this Church is true. I know that God loves us and he cares for us. I know we sometimes have challenges but I know our Savior will literally pick us up and carry us when we need him. Our Savior is always here for us. He is waiting to carry us home. All we need to do is allow him to do it.  I promise you all he is waiting for you to allow him to carry you all. I promise you all he will help you. Trust in him. Let him carry you. I know that he can do it. Allow it to happen.

I want you all to remember that our Church is unique. It is original. It is different from all the different other sects because it has the truth. We have a prophet, and 12 apostles. We have the power and authority of God. We have the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The message of the Restoration is power. It has strength. It can quiet anyone that has doubts about this Gospel. I know with all of my heart that God, our Eternal Father, and his son, Our Savior Jesus Christ, appeared to a young boy named Joseph Smith. This is the final Restoration that will happen on earth. There will never be another Apostasy. Please know that this message is a message of power. It is truth. It is a message of love, and beauty. I know this message is true, and I know it is a message of power. I know that this message is true and it needs to be taken in all parts of the world. I love you all and I testify that we have the Truth. I testify that the Book of Mormon is the most correct book here on Earth. It is written by prophets. It is about the old inhabitants of the Americas. This is True and I know it. I love you all. Have a great week and share your testimonies with the world!

 Family and Friends!!!

Well hi there everyone! so sorry I didn't write last week! I didn't have anytime to write last week!

This week was so awesome! We had interviews as a zone with President Rios. It was so awesome! I love our Presidente so much! He is awesome!!!!! I learned so much from him and he helped me so much!

We were able to find 8 new investigators this week. They are really awesome! We found uno hermano and his name is Luis. He is a catholic teacher and didn't believe in the restoration. My companion taught him about acts 3 verse 19 which talks about the Restoration! He was frozen and finally understood the Restoration. It was so awesome!

Our investigator Caled has gone to church 2 times now! He is so awesome and our goal for his baptism is 29 of October!

I love you guys so much and I hope that you are all happy and healthy!

 Well hey there everyone! love you all so much and am praying for you guys everyday. This week was great and so exciting!

Well this week me and my companion, we were just walking down the street and a lady stopped us and talked to us. We talked to her and it turns out she wanted us to visit her. She had been having some troubles with her family. We went to her house and visited her. She is chosen! Her name is Rosio. She has 3 children that are all grown up. She even came with us to church on Sunday. It was awesome! She found some friends there and really felt comfortable. She is awesome!

I have been praying for General Conference to come, and it is finally here! We are so lucky to listen to the Prophet and the 12 Apostles. I am so excited!

I gave a talk in church about a testimony and the importance to find a testimony and the importance to share a testimony. I was nervous but I hoped everyone liked it!

It was a really good week here in Trujillo. We had a multi zone and it was so awesome! I felt the spirit so strong. Some other elders also told me that in Chao, my first area, the investigators that I found are going to be baptized! I love you all so much and I testify that this Work is real!
