Week 53
Hola! Buenos días mis amigos! How are you doing! I apologize for the lack of letters it has been a busy few weeks! - On Saturday our dear friend rubens was taken by the Guardia( border control) to Haiti. This is extremely difficult for him and we are not sure how he will get back. If you could all pray for him we would appreciate it. - the work here has been going super well, we had 4 baptisms the last 3 weeks and it has been extremely humbling to see the lord's hand in them. I know that if not for many miracles they wouldn't have happened - i hit a year-- that was cool but it passed way too fast - i did an english fast this week as it was honestly so fun. - for our pday last week we went to a super tiny town called banica, it's right next to the Haitian border and we went and found some caves with a statue of some catholic saint. That was cool. We also saw haiti and it really is brown on their side and green on the other. - it's been super hot here ...

I love the area and the people here. We had the Allinsons baptism! although this was only "our baptism" because his parents aren't members, it’s been so cool to see his knowledge of the gospel grow. To prepare for his interview he memorized the story of Joseph Smith word for word out of the kids Book of Mormon. I have no doubt that he will be an amazing missionary in 10 years. Ruebens got his wheelbarrow! The branch was able to provide a new wheelbarrow to Rubens this week. Although this seems like something small this is something that will change his life. The future now is just a little brighter for him. I have never seen a man so excited to work. I started to carry around candy to give out to the kids. They love it but now every time i walk anywhere I’m expecte...
