No new changes...Just a beautiful sealing!

HOLA FAMILIA Well this week was...how can I say it? Missionarytastic or even templetastic! It was great to be in the House of the Lord and to be able to see some of the fruits of my labors. It was an amazing experience that made my mission along with everything else worth it! I also got news from them at the temple that they are expecting their first child in about two months, which means I'll get to see the little tike before I come home. It is a boy and his name will be Gabriel Nefi (or Nephi in spanish) a future missionary! We also heard that they legalized marijuana down here...it was a pretty big deal but I don't think it was the greatest decision. I guess I will have to continue to work diligently and do my best to find all the other people Heavenly Father is preparing for me. We also received change calls this week but it wasn't a change at all. We only had one missionary from our whole entire district leave. We are excited for the month of July as I am sure you are as well. We have a lot of progressing investigators that are hopefully going to be baptized in the coming weeks! I will let you know how they go and how great it feels to help bring souls into the knowledge of the restored gospel. I thank you for your always inspiring and uplifting emails(and the updates of whats happening back home). I appreciate your words of love and council and will always treasure them as well as previous memories. I cant believe that this month I will be receiving my "trunky call!" That means that the offices call when you have six months left and ask what your plans are for going home. You tell them and then they send my flight itinerary to you! I let you know as if comes. I love you all and I love this gospel. I love the joy that I feel as I serve the Savior and strive to become more like Him. I know that He lives and loves us. I know that He died so that we can repent and be cleansed of our sins. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and is another testament of Him. I know that things we do today, prepare us for the eternities. I know that we must use our agency wisely and it is a great gift from God. Love you all until next week!
