First week without a baptism in a month and a half :(

Family and friends,
So this week was a bit depressing as the baptisms we had planned fell through, but thats ok cause they just had to wait a bit longer as they have to get married first. the oldest daughter (13) wanted to get baptised this sunday but her dad wants her to wait for the rest of the family, they will be baptised the 28th of January. they are from puebla and go there frequently to sell things here that are authentic from there, such as really delicious food :) the cheese is amazing, anyway, thats the depressing part.

The good part is we found a fair amount of new people this week and the majority of them have accepted baptism. :) When i got here the area had 60' refferals in the house that had not been contacted, there are now 9, this week we plan on getting it done.

I include 创The compass创 its the mission news basically, its in spanish but my zone came out #1 and my companion and I are diplayed as the Companionship that baptised every week in december, or the successful companionship, as that is the goal of the mission, baptise every week, its really hard to do and really very tiring, and the majority depends on the blessings you recieve, because we can go out and work 12 hours a day and sweat blood, but we wouldnt get anything done. We have to have the spirit with us in order to be successful.

This week went by super duper fast and it was fairly normal, lots of door knocking and being rejected, but the one door when they let us in is worth it. :)

Love you all!!
