Olvidate Che

Hello folks, this week was one filled with work and miracles (Accompanied with difficulties of course!)  It´s fascinating because I´ve always heard people use the quote from President Hinckley´s Father of "Forget yourself and Go to work" in order to be happy and whatnot, and I honestly always thought that it was pretty cliche hahaha! but i´ve definitely seen that it works, and that it takes part in us as we dedicate our thoughts and actions to the work of the lord. 
Anywho, We found some great new investigators, and there are many that accepted baptismal dates, so we´re working with several people, and we´ll continue working this coming week in order to find more people. Fun fact: This last week I visited my first area in the mission again (Munro) to bring our investigator to a baptismal interview (Now, instead of the district leader coming to us for the interview, we have to go to the district leader...)
Also, in respect to the baptism that we had, Reinalda returned from her trip to paraguay, and still continued with her decision to be baptized. She had great support from her family and the ward, and she´s going to be a strong pillar in the ward.

But ya, i can´t think of many interesting things that happened this week... Just that there was a TON of rain, which was a bummer because only a few of our investigators made it to the church building... oh ya! This week, I guess a few talk-givers didn´t show up, so our bishop called me and my companion to give talks, and I was first. I got up to the pulpit with no idea of what I was going to say. it was one of those moments where you´ve just got to rely on the spirit. Well, I did that, and a few scriptures came to my head, and I gave a short talk of 10 minutes about principles of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. But ya, good stuff. Anywho, the work goes on! 
Love
Elder Holtry
