Dearest Family,
This week.. wow. One of the best of my whole mission. We committed our investigator Jose to be baptized this saturday. I have changes and will be in a new area tomorrowwith a new companion but I am still so happy for Jose. I am hoping I can get permission to come back and watch the Baptism. Jose is about 50, looks kind of like a Mexican version of dad haha. He loves the gospel soo much and it has brought him so much peace and Joy. He is divorced and lives alone so he is hoping also to find a member he can marry. :) He has not had a single problem or even a hiccup in living the gospel, the commandments, praying, reading, assisting church. He is one of the few people out here that we call golden investigator. He absolutely is the most prepared and ready investigator I have ever seen or heard of.
Tomorrow I will be heading to the changes meeting, which means all the missionaries who have a change of assignment will go to a meeting and then we will be assigned our new area and new companion and then I am off to a new part of my service in Mexico. I am going to miss this ward, they are great, the members here love the gospel so much and do a lot to share it with everyone. Most of all I will miss visiting Jose and Alejandra. They are going to be in my heart and my prayers I think for the rest of my life. I can personally testify that sharing the gospel with somebody who accepts and lives it builds a relationship that is as special as any I have had. This gospel is real.
Next week I will be writing from a new area, with a new companion and a new chapter in this story.
Have a wonderful week all of you and remember that missionary work is the greatest of all the works ever.
Found a cool Joseph smith quote today.
When you feel pure intelligence flowing into you, it may give you sudden strokes of ideas.
The spirit is real, it inspires the hearts and minds of men to valiantly do the will of God. So go find a spritual corner this week and let the inspiration flow.
