Well family sorry for the short letter last week but i had so many things to do. but anyway this week was a great week. i dont know if i told you about the family cejas. but they are great, they had their interview on saturday for baptism and they all passed with flying colors. so this saturday we will be getting a baptism, there are 4 people in the family but 3 of them are getting baptized becuase the other kid is like 2. all of them were way excited, and so are me and my companion. they are a way humble family and i sware they just do whatever we say its amazing. they really are a special and a chosen family. you always hear that there are people being prepared to recieve the gospel, but when you come across with those people that were being prepared its just amazing. they havent had one doubt about anything, they all have testimonies of the book of mormon. its really amazing, they are even sharing the gospel already, we are teaching there neice now. so they will be a great family to work with. and they always make us food every time we go buy. they will be great members. so me and my companion are really excited. it will be his first baptism too, so that will be an amazing experience for him. but the week went really well, nothing to special happened. being a leader isnt always the best haha. theres one missionary thats kind of a rebel, and when i try to help them he just gets mad. but oh well what you going to do. i had to drop the cane a bit yesterday haha. but my comps doing great, the assistants told us that its probable that we are going to be separated and i dont want that at all. my companion is great, hes a lot different from all the other latins that i have been with. hes actually willing to learn haha. but yesterday we had 6 investigators in church, so it was fun to see that. sunday is basically game day for missionarys haha, if our investigators go to church we won, and if they dont, we lose and satan wins haha. well thats the way i look at it haha, it helps me do well in the week. i love my area so much, i definately am not looking forward to leaving, the members and the area is just amazing here. the people are way humble here. in one lesson we watched a little short movie of when joseph smith prayed to see which was the true church. we watched it with the family cejas and there neice, but the neice was just crying in the movie, and she said it relates to her so much because she is so confused. she doesnt belong to any religion, so will have to help her find the truth. but anyway, today we are going to centro, so i am going to buy some new shoes and a companionship tie. me and my companion buy the same ties haha. but anyway i hope everyone has a good week, and mom and dad, keep giving me updates on the ward and on good old alta highschool. i love everyone so much, and i hope that this letter was a little bit longer then last weeks haha love everyone so much. oh and mom, with that kid that is having stuggles deciding to go on a mission, i dont think i will have time to write a letter but just tell him that deciding to go on a mission was the biggest decision i have ever made, but it is also the best decision. there hasnt been one day in the mission where i havent smiled. because i am always happy here. i know he will regret it if he doesnt go on a mission, and i know if he does go he will not regret it. but i love everyone chou!!!
