Hey guys!

Crazy day today. his morning we went to a members house from the English ward, and he does a hot wings challenge and it was super hot and fun. Then we did a zone activity where we did a massive water balloon fight with over 1,500 gallons. It was in the parking lot of the church and we set up an arena with our cars, we had tables up as walls and garbage cans full placed all across the arena it was awesome! We were all soaked.

Here are a couple awesome highlights this week.
To start, we had another awesome lesson with David and Rosalina. They are great. Rosalina was struggling with reading little so we talked about faith and how we really need to show our faith through our actions. Do we really have the confidence in Heavenly Father that if we do the things he's asked, then he'll do his part and bless us. David loves the Book of Mormon though and he told us several times to come back, to please not leave them. He knows there's something here and it's really cool to have someone that has this desire to figure out what we have and watching him apply it in his life. It is through those acts of our faith when we receive our answers and blessings. It's so cool.
Then Saturday we had Metzlis baptismal interview. She is the little girl we have been teaching. She is so smart, and its been very fun. Her parents have been investigating for a few years now, and just havnt made the push to get married, but I think with Metzli being baptized it going to be huge for them. This is going to be the push they need. The baptism is going to be next Saturday and we are pumped!

Then Sunday was perfect. To have the whole day solely focused on Christ and his beautiful love for us was amazing. And because we get to be in two wards we got double. It was a great Easter, but to make it just that much better, Brenda and Ernesto, from the Estrella area, were baptized! I found them with elder jones in dec and taught them the first three lessons and fell in love with them. I don't think I have ever felt the kind of joy I felt at their baptism. I was so happy for them. They have had such a hard life and now they have made this incredible covenant with God and it will change their life forever.

I love being a missionary! His gospel is what brings happiness in this life and I've been filled with the joy of helping others come unto Christ this week!
I hope you all had a special Easter and I pray you all have a great week!

Love you guys so much.
