This week was by far a better week then the last, we saw a lot of
miracles with our investigators and members that we work with.
To start out we taught a fair amount of lessons this week although we
were not able to meet our zone goal of 3 member presents a week we
still had some success teaching people.
We found this lady her name is Yajayra, she's a super cool lady from
Peru that we found by looking up her sister that we tracted into a
long time ago, we got a return appointment and then we had a super
good lesson with her Sunday night, it was so cool and the spirit was
super strong, we left her with a Book of Mormon and she told us that
she will start reading it that night, also she doesn't work on
Saturday and Sunday so that a good thing because she can come to
church.
Speaking of church Edwin brought his brother this Sunday with him to
church it was really cool, he wants his brother to learn about the
gospel so we are gonna start teaching him soon as well.
Went on splits to Yonkers this week with the other elders in my
district and that was cool, we had some cool miracles happen over
there, I really liked going to Yonkers because it reminded me of my
time when I was in the Bronx, I hope I get to serve there some day.
We started English class this week, we are gonna try to do it every
Tuesday and Thursday at like 7:30-9 so we made a whole bunch of fliers
and put them up all over the place, and immediately people started to
ask us about it when they saw the flier, we also had a lot of people
call us in the next few days asking us about it, I was super pumped to
do it because I remember doing it in the Bronx and that was a lot of
fun but ever since I left the Bronx we haven't done anything like
that. Yesterday was the first day that we started teaching
andddddddd..... nobody showed up, hopefully we have better luck with
people coming out tomorrow.

Sorriest email yet!
This week was good, we didn't have a whole lot of set lessons like we usually do so it was kinda slow, but we did see a lot of miracles from the lessons that we did have because basically all of them were member presents and that's way better then just other lessons.
Other then that nothing much happened, this is the most sorriest email ever.

Gran semana!
We had a really good week, we had a lot of member presents and we
taught a fair amount of other lessons as well.
Had a great lesson with Edwin and Teresa on Thursday and we brought
with us the senior missionaries The Huneycutts they were great, the
lesson was mostly in English so that they can understand what's going
on but they are trying to learn how to speak Spanish, they did great.
At the end of the lesson we found out that Teresa was not feeling well
so we gave her a blessing so that she can feel better, Edwin was
really impressed and he asked a lot of questions about the priesthood,
he really wants to get baptized so he can get it. Also both of them
came to church this week as well.
We found this other family Antonio and Demia that are also super cool,
they are a older couple that we just found tracting that let us in one
day and so we are now teaching them. We had a good lesson with them on
the Book of Mormon and we also had a member with us at that lesson,
that made it a lot better. They are praying to see if it's true.
Also found this other cool lady Jolly she's from Guatemala, when we
found her her husband already met with the missionaries before and so
she already had a Book of Mormon, we talked to her about it and
invited her to read it, we were not able to meet with her husband tho.
Went on a split with elder brown my Mtc comp who is my zone leader
now, that was also pretty cool it was our first time working together
since the Mtc and its cool to see how much we have progressed and how
much we both have learned, we had a great day on his area he's a
really good missionary.
That's about it.

La Vaina🇩🇴
Hey everyone so this week we didn't have too much going on in fact we
lost a family, they no longer want us to come over, so that's too bad
but over all this week has been good, on Sunday Edwin came to church
again and he was actually chosen to say a prayer to begin sacrament,
he did a great job, Teresa didn't come because she had work. They are
the most solid investigator ever and I forgot to say it before but
they did get the letter.
School started this week over here so everyone is super busy which
makes it kinda hard to find people or to have members come out with
us, but we do have a couple of people who are always down to go to
lessons.
Our mission just stared to do the reading the Book of Mormon in 100
days again and I'm excited to start doing that, this time I'm gonna
read it with just one question in mind that I want an answer to, I
don't know the question yet and we are starting tomorrow so I need to
think of one pronto.
We are also starting to do English class again because we had some
investigators say that they will come so hopefully this gives us an
opportunity to find/teach some more people, help them get closer to
Christ and help them make a little bit more money.
Can't think of anything else to write but hopefully next weeks email
is better.
