OK so my week this week was amazing, we had 4 baptisms, i included the pictures of everyone together they were baptised saturday morning at about 10:00 I baptised all the men and my companion baptised the woman, which doesn´t really matter but it was way cool. the first one i baptised was Eusebio Antolín Aguilar Hernandez, my companion baptised his wife Rosa María, they are the family of gold i talked about, we´re still trying to get their kids to church but it will be easier now that the parents are members. Antolín has worked security his whole life but his wife asked him to quit on the federal level and he is now searching for work. He talks a TON but its good because he helps himself and his family learn by doing it, the first thing he said when we met him was 'i want to be clean of my sins, do you know how i can do that?' haha he was baptised exactly 1 month later, his wife always seemed sad, tired, and just unhealthy, she now seems bright and full of life all the time :) the two boys are cousins, although the younger lives with them and was adopted by his aunt after his mother abandoned him to hop the border. we baptised them about a month and a half after their mom, we are still working with her oldest son and her husband, hopefully they all get baptised. (José louis, 14; Jorlin 8 Mother: María del Carmen) I also included a picture of our front door-stairs, my room, the neighbors (puppies), hopefuly they all work.
Yes we did go back and teach the father (pedro) he´s very catholic but has an open heart and was going to come to church but he got sick and couldn´t make it, his son has a baptismal date however, and his wife is already a member. Money i think i´m good but if you want the best way to do it would be to put it on my card. sorry about clancy i´m sure he´s in a wonderful new home. í´ll find out how to make a horchata :) i´m not sure how but i´ll look :)
Things in méxico are going great although i would not advise you to take a visit atm... i eat lunch with a family every day we just had exchanges and i´m still with the same companion in the same area.
We went to park Fundidora last monday its where Monterrey started we went and tourned a huge iron refinery it was cool i´ll send mor photos later.
Anyway, let me know about any questions/comments you have.
With Love, Elder Allen
