Hey family of mine,

Sounds like there were some ups and downs this past week. I hope you are all doing alright. I wish I could give some awesome perfect advice, .. but we will leave that to the more experienced. Just know that I love you all and pray for you always, and not only me and my companion, but the members and the people we teach mention our families too in their prayers. 

I am so very jealous of the temple celebrations that will be coming to pass in calgary soon. The finishing and dedicating of a temple is definitely something to celebrate. I dont quite remember exactly the quote, but elder Packer said something like , that every temple completed shakes and tears down the foundation of Satans power and strengthens and enlargens the Kingdom of God on the Earth.... or something to that sense, but it was really powerful and so true. haha

Yesterday we had our branch conference. It was great, and we had a great turnout of 89, our goal is 100 as a regular number. Slowly we are getting there. They wanted to have a choir sing a number at the conference, so we agreed to join in. When they found out that I could play a couple hymns, they dragged out a keyboard they have stored away and elected me pianist/director. haha, it was pretty funny, it went well concerning the fact that I dont think they have ever had a choir. But I enjoyed it.

Thanks for the support, our investigators are doing well :) 

I hope everything is well, sounds like summer is about to break loose over there haha. 

Thanks for the games mom! We will definitely be using them in FHEs, activities,....p-days in our room with my comp lol. 

My companion has told me that I have been talking in my sleep a bit. Thats weird. and its in spanish he claims lol. Thats a first.

Tomorrow me and my companion are going to chiclayo for a conference or a meeting or something, we arent quite sure, we just follow directions. But if its something really neat, dont worry, I´ll tell you all about it.

Thanks family, Love ya so much. Keep being the best family ever. Keep the faith. Keep being good looking. Keep smiling :)
