Week #70 December 6, 2017

hey mom I´m glad you liked the surprise! we were explaining the light the world thing (ilumina el mundo) to some members and they sent the pictures to help us do that days activity. 

I did get my debt card and it works I also got the christmas package this past week so that one got here a lot faster. 

Junior is doing really well. Like usual we have been teaching is wife a lot and junior is ready to be baptized, he just wants to wait for his wife. We are trying to have the baptism the 16th if we can. Yolanda started working yesterday though so hopefully we can still teach her just as much but she is doing very well overall, her and junior are awesome. No we aren´t found Marco. 

The is a really cool church video called the great apostasy (i think ) but it is the conversion story of Wilfred Woodroof and he shows how he was baptized in other churches before being baptized in the restored church. it is very good to show to Haitians because to them being baptized for a second time- doesn't matter the religion -is a terrible sin. But the video is really good and we watched it with yolanda and I think it helped her understand. one thing that has really called my attention is the logic and intelligence of early church leaders and they studied the bible and didn't´t settle for anything less than the truth, I really like those stories. 

Last week I finished reading the new testament for the first time and now I am starting with Doctrine and covenants. I think I am a lot more familiar with the scriptures in spanish than I am in english. But I do love reading the scriptures. 

I think I finally have gained a little weight I think I´m like 180-185 now!

I hope you guys are having a good christmas thats awesome you went to the vending machine things I saw those in the video and thought they were the coolest thing ever. 

I love you so much,  say hi to brookie for me

Love Elder Austin
