Hey Family and Friends,

This week was great and went by super fast. We had another baptism this last week on Saturday and that was really cool. I played the piano for the program and it was really fun. There aren’t a lot of people who can play the piano so whenever I do everyone is super grateful about it and its super cool. The work has been going really good and this week we had a really cool lesson with this family. We were teaching the Restoration lesson in English and Spanish so basically Spanglish. It was super cool because we were able to help answer a lot of his questions and we invited them to church and to meet with us again. The family seemed to have been looking for a church for a long time and we were excited to start teaching them and helping them. The spirit was really strong in the lesson and was a really good experience. This family is willing to change and that's super cool. It was able to strengthen my testimony and my companions in this lesson. 

This week we had dinner with the members everyday so we didn't really have to cook in our apartment. So now we have a little more food for us this week and that's great. In the mission you learn several skills and cooking is definitely one of them. We take turns cooking for each other Elders that live near us and its super fun to hear about their day and experiences. They are super awesome to talk to and practice Spanish with. This week we were able to have a lesson where some of the members of the church came with us. It was a really cool lesson and they helped out so much. They are both fluent in Spanish so it made the lesson go more smoothly. We ended leaving the people we taught with an invitation to come to church and they said they would give it a try next week.

I’m very grateful and this week was super fun. The weather in Texas has been really warm and it feels like summer already haha. I hope y’all have a great week and can't wait to talk to y’all next week.
