Taco-bout the Gospel: Take My Hand

Wow such an incredible week! I think the weeks just keep getting better! Guys I cant even explain how happy I am right now. I cant even begin to describe it. Its absolutely THE BEST THING EVER! Life is full of incredible things. Man. I just love life.

Let me just fill you in on a few things that I might have failed to mention. Sometimes everything slips my mind until I'm done and signed off. But I finally remembered in the process!

We have a family of GOLD progressing. I believe I mentioned that we said a specific prayer and then 3 weeks later we found these prepared children of God. So this was all about 4 weeks ago when we found them. Its a family of 3. Julio, Veronica and Julio Hijo. They are SOO prepared. No problems at all! No problems with the word of wisdom or the law of chastity! Its sometimes hard to believe that these people actually exist and that a family of gold is possible but man, it's happening! They are going to be baptized the 10th of December if everything goes as planned. I'm learning that God ALWAYS fulfills his promises. Even promises that were made since the beginning that are mentioned in my patriarchal blessing. Now that is amazing. I love them so much!!!

Second of all. Wow. The Lord has been so good to my companion and I. He has blessed us an incredible amount with experiences that I cant even begin to describe. It's amazing to see the enabling power of the atonement work in those around you. It's amazing to feel sorrow and joy at the same time. Its amazing to see how the Lord has prepared my companion to share certain experiences in the precise moment. The Lord amazes me every day.

My companion has become much more than a companion. She is my best friend. Literally like a sister. For this reason I have titled this email as such. sometimes words aren't enough or aren't even necessary but the small reassurance that there is someone else who feels the same is comforting. It is as if I was together with the Lord. He reaches out his hand to each and every one of us. He's all around us. Look for Him. This Christmas you can also do such. I invite you all to go to mormon.org and watch the new video. It is beautiful. And absolutely heart penetrating.

I love you ALL!!! thanks for everything you do for me!!!
