Time Is Flying By

The time is going by really fast. I already almost have 6 months in the mission. It doesn't seem like it's been that long. My Spanish is improving a lot. I can understand most of what is being said. And I'm still working on speaking. But it's getting easier. So I'm excited for that. I'm doing pretty good. I don't know I'm still me. But man, this weekend we had a baptism of this lady. She was so prepared from the first visit. We left her at church because we thought she left, but she just went to change her baby. She still came again the next week. I probably told y'all that before. But I could have performed my first baptism, but I figured it would be better for someone in the ward to do it. We change every 6 weeks but the ward members stay and they'll be the ones that keep them active.

There's another investigator that we added last night. She's been coming to church for the past 3 weeks, but we've never been able to get her address. We finally got it on Sunday and visited her yesterday. We're planning on committing her to be baptized on the 14th. She seems like a golden investigator too. We're still working on the family of 6. We had a Zone Conference on Thursday and it was so good. The Spirit was so strong during the whole time. The ward that did the lunch for us did an amazing job. They had some pumpkins carved and lit up (see below). But anyways after lunch we always sing to the people who prepared the lunch. And the Spirit continued during this. We sang "Armies of Helaman" and I had to hold back the tears. All the ladies we're crying and even the Stake/Branch President was tearing up. He was a big polynesian guy. He shared us a story about his nephew who is one of the top ranked high school football players. But after we sang that we sang "Called to Serve."

For Halloween we couldn't really go out at night so we had a Zone activity and had a chance to watch the movie. I told everyone we should watch the Hannah Montanna Movie. Pretty much all of them were making fun of me and saying that it would be a stupid movie. But 2 or 3 said they would and they rented and brought it to the activity. During the movie everyone was into it and liked it by the end. So it was funny. I think that's about all that's going on with me.
