Week 5: Semana 5
Hola mi Familia!
What is up my good people. We are here again and it has been another week. How crazy it is that time flies this fast. In couple days, I will be flying to Obregon and out into the field and I am TRIPPING OUT. I know it will be great there because Heavenly Father and Christ will be with me every step of the way. This week has been great and overwhelming. We have had a ton of meetings about taking off into the field and my mente feels like its going to explode. It is going to be so awesome though! This week has been good but I can definitely tell that everyone is ready to take off. For example, my companion and I are BEST friends with our teacher Hermano Celis. When we were doing a fake lesson about la palabra de sabiduria (word of wisdom) we all started dying laughing because my teacher broke character as our investigadore "Cesar." Unfortunately, it wasnt the best lesson but we could all tell we are ready to not teach fake lessons anymore. Also, my companion was talking in his sleep AGAIN last night! This time it was in ingles. He was saying stuff like "Hey can you take care of this lesson tomorrow.........(silence).........OKAY." I was DYING. Also this week we have had some awesome devotionals about our futuro investigadores (Future Investigators) and it has been pretty cool. In general, it has been good week so far. To conclude this weekly update, I just want to bear mi testimonio sobre El Libro de Mormon. (Bear my testimony about the Book of Mormon) A couple of days ago I was having a rough time. I was down on myself about español and the mission in general. I was reading in Alma and all this sudden the verses I was reading seemed so specific to me. I was praying to God to help me and the verses I read sounded like a direct letter from God to me. It was EXACTLY what I needed. It wasnt kinda about me or said some things that I could apply to me life, but I mean it was EXACTLY what I needed to hear and was super specific to me. Anyways, my point is Heavenly Fathers answers prayers through thoughts in our minds, feelings in our hearts, AND through the scriptures. I guess I never really thought of that. All in all, I just want to bear mi testimonio on El Libro de Mormon porque it is La palabra de Dios (Bear my testimony on the Book of Mormon because it is the word of God) and it can be exactly what we need. Remember, life is an open book test because we have all the answers in El Libro de Mormon. (The Book of Mormon)

"Life could be a dream." Once again my camera decided to do some cool/weird effect as soon as someone else takes a picture. Elder Ortiz (one of my friends) is halfway blocking me.
