Querida Familia Mìa-

Well José and Isabel got baptized-It was really cool-The were so happy. And saturday we went to the temple. There were 7 members going for the first, 3 of the were less active when I got here! It was so cool! I'm not a crier-but as Ben would say-Niagra Falls Franky Angel-I guess I could say Fuentes de Niagra, Angel Frankoso. It was was really cool-words can't really describe it-it was such a treat for me-and get this-Hna Gonzalez-remember her-Me and Sis. Howarth baptized her family-she went back-it was so cool to see all these people in the temple in the temple-it truly was a little peek into the Celestial Kingdom. Everyone (well, almost everyone) was bawling!

The baptism went very well. Because José had a pacemaker put in-he couldn't do it normally because he can't pull on his left arm. So Pres. D. said (oh-he baptized them) "Well, you can lay your hands across your chest (like you are dead) Because baptism is a symbol of atonement, you know, death, burial, and the resurrection-Tons fo symbolism. It was by far the coolest! Very Powerful. They didn't quite get how cool it was. But it was awesome!

Lucia changed her mind and doesn't want to be baptized anymore-She is like an infant sometimes. Going from nice-sane-lady to a temper tantrum throwing 2 year old. So we'll talk to her again and either baptize her or drop her. She game me some pretty cool bling though.

Soley Holt is still good for the 30th on her baptism. Things are moving right along though that's for sure. But all in all-things are going well. Miracles are happening and it's a great time to be a missionary.

Enjoy the pictures
