 How's it going 

Hope everybody is having a good week this week has been pretty good for us so far we were able to find a few cool people and we also had a member of the seventy come visit and talk to is yesterday so our p day is today instead of Monday. He is awesome he is from Chile and he taught a lot of awesome things about the atonement and about how the atonement can lift, strengthen, and enable us as well as.help us find forgiveness. He had a lot of cool insights into it and something he said.thay I thought was cool was he talked about giving 100% but that 100% can change day to day sometimes our 100 is a lot and we can give a lot to the work but other days our 100 might be small and we guve a lot less but the percentage doesn't change its still 100% of our effort we are giving so as long as we strive to put forth the effort that's what's important. We also were able to have Miguels Baptism in these last few weeks he is awesome he says he wants to get in the temple as soon as possible and that he wants to invite his friends to church as well we are working with him to get his mom baptized soon so hopefully that all works out. We have been pretty busy here in Rio Vista the last few weeks but we have seen the lords hand in our work which is awesome and helps us remeber we are not alone. Not too much else has been happening just a lot of soccer, teaching english class and walking the streets of Omaha

Hope you all have a great week

Hey everybody hope everyone is doing good I decided I should probably send another email out since it's been a long time since I have sent one. I am still here in Sioux Falls South Dakota but since last time I wrote I have gotten a new companion. His name is Elder Gertsch and he is from Boise Idaho so thats been kind of fun talking about Idaho. We also got a baptism a while back for a girl named Sarahi which was pretty awesome. Honestly not a ton has happened just walking and talking to the spanish people here in South Dakota which has a lot more Spanish than I would have originally thought. I also have been trying a lot of new food here. About every time I go to a members house I eat something new which has generally been something related to sea food like when someone fed us seaweed. I am getting to the point in my mission where I have learned how to start cooking more than just microwaving things so the food game has improved. I have loved being on my mission even...

This was a crazy week. We started by flying to Omaha on Monday but when we got there we found out that we won't meet our trainers until Wednesday so we just had to stay in hotels for 2 days but that was pretty fun. We got to go explore winter quarters and then we got to go eat at President Bailey's house. Then on Wednesday we were given assignments and I was assigned to Lincoln Nebraska Spanish in a trio with Elder Hepworth and Elder Hammond but before we could leave we had to wait for a ride for 7 hours. Me and two other new Elders just walked around the Church and looked at the Tacomas that they won't let the Elders drive because they only allow the sisters to have them. Then we finally got our ride but we had so much luggage and mail that we couldn't see anyone in the car while we drove. Once I got to Lincoln I met my trainers. Elder Hammond has been out for over a year and is the trainer and he is awesome. Elder Hepworth has been out one transfer which is 6 weeks an...

Hello everybody hope you had a great week  Transfers were this week and I got transferred to Omaha which kind of sucks but it is a good area we actually have a Spanish Branch again which makes church fun. Before we left GI we got to say goodbye to the people we were teaching and some members and they took us to some Mexican reseraunt and bought a ton of tacos it was awesome but really sad that we were leaving. We were also told that are apartment was going to close so we spent a ton of time cleaning the heck out of it then they changed it at the last moment so other missionaries get to stay in our apartment. Omaha is pretty great though our first day we got a ton of food from some puerta ricans then later we were able to put someone on date for Baptism. This week has been kind of crazy but overall it's been good I was also able to read this week in the Book of Enos And he said unto me: Because of thy faith in Christ, whom thou hast never before heard nor seen. And many years ...
