Family and friends,
This week was very tiring. the sun has come out and the heat has begun. but the good thing is that last year it was this hot in februrary. its alsmost june and its just starting to get thick. We had a good expirience this week where we helped a guy cut a few limbs out of his mesquite tree. we were there for a long time but it was all worth it when he and his wife showed up to church 3 days later :) that was cool. He was a refferal from the Missionaries in Tacubaya, which is right next to our area. they were walking along the border street between our areas and the Man (Edmundo) called them over to his house. the only thing was that he lives in our area. so they called for permission to teach him once and they passed the refferral. its a big family and they are progressing little by little, and they are preparing for baptism :) even better when they arrived in the chapel it turns out that the sister (Lourdes) is friends with 2 or 3 sisters from our ward so it will be even easier with the fellowshiping. but of course everything depends on them and their will to follow christ if they get baptismed or not.
We have been working alot with less active members and several families have returned to church and there are several 9-11 year old kids we are teaching so that they can be baptised. the members feel this is better cuse they have the expirience of conversion. but we were studying it this week and it is actually the opposite. For a memeber of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints we have the responsibility to teach our children so that they can participate in baptism when they reach the age of 8. D&C 68:25-27. The opposing option isnt too bright. Thats just one of the things i have learned this week. Our district Leader asked us to study D&C 4 frontwards backwards referenced and crossed referenced. WOW i would and invite all of you to do it as well. almost every point of the gospel of Jesus Christ is in this small 7 verse chapter in 1 week i have studied verses 1 and 2 and have discovered how completing with this section will help us complete with every other requirement the Gospel puts on us. i am going to continue studying it and 创Sucking out all the Juice`` and the didstrict Leader invited us to do. He is really one of the best district Leaders i have had, Elder Brandenburg from Virginia. One of the coolest guys i磛e met in the mish.
Dillon, read the BOM in your language study out loud in spanish DAILY. for 5 to 10 minutes. it will help you have the gift of tongues and be able to understand wht the other people are saying.
Love you all,
Elder Paden W Allen

scripture of the week: Alma 6:6. Apply it, then as Elder Bednar says: Get to work!!
