Hey Family!!

Its great to hear things are going well down there in the AZ!! Hope you had a good fathers day dad!! Sorry i couldnt send you the super cool thing you wanted. haha. but man this week has gone by really fast actually.

And its amazing how much success i have been having with E olivares. The only thing that is hard for him is that he forgets to speak to me in spanish a lot so i have to remind him. but he is my "greenie breaker" as they call it here. And he is teaching me a lot of things. apparently we didnt do somethings right when i was with E Castillo? So somethings im relearning and try to do better. But really we have had a lot of success this past week. We have like 5 new investigators that we found this past week. its awesome. I feel a baptism this transfer for sure :)

The thing that is really cool. Is when i was with e castillo there was this family that we had been trying to find. But we could never find them. The house that they were supposed to be living in was abandoned. And so then with E Olivares we went to go look for them again, and then i rememberd that they werent there and we were like what the heck? And so yesterday we were going to visit one of the New Investigators we have E. But she wasnt there. So we decided to knock the door above her. And so we did and they told us to come in. We asked him what his name was, and he said R R. And i was like no way? And it clicked. He was the guy we had been looking for, and his whole family was there too. He had been attending church a bunch and was gonna get baptized but then had to work on sundays and so he stopped coming. And so we taught him about the Restoration and he accpeted a date to be baptized July 11th! But he wants us to come back and teach all his family. He has like 8 people living with him that arent members!! how crazy is that!! Its amazing to see how the Lord works and places people in our path, because i know it was no coincidence that we foudn him. Because we had been looking for them for along time. So that was a really cool experience we had yesterday.

We had zone conference yesterday which was really good. It always is. But there is always a super strong spirit at zone conference i love them. i have a feeling this transfer is gonna fly by. Me and E Olivares are getting a long really well and things are going good.

Weather is still warm, sometimes its nice during the day but now its like 85-90. And at night its like 55-60 so thats really nice :) Im gonna die in the winters i know it!! haha. As of right now the only thing i could think that i want is maybe some spanish music cd's? Like Hymns? or something, perhaps spanish hymn arrangements if they have any? Cuz i would rather have those then the normal hymsn. Also if there are some piano arrangements of music? idk. Just types of music. i dont really havea lot. And i would love to listen to maybe some orchestra music like actual orchestra music not hymns. But idk. Ha. Thats all i can really think i want. I dont really need anything. They keep us nice and happy.

Im eating my Mac and Mustard up here. And last week i bought some pickles!! ha The first week i was here i only bought Ramen and mac and cheese, and after taht week i cahnged my mind haha and havent bought it since. i actually can buy some real food. But a lot of times we dont even need it cuz we get fed so much. Which is why im getting so fat haha. im gonna start working out harder this week and trying to eat some healthier stuff so we will see how that goes.

WEll i guess thats it for this week. You will hear from me aagin this coming Monday. Love you all, give Alice a kiss from me :) have a great week.

Love,
