Family! 

So today is our preparation day! We had an amazing Mission Conference with Elders Villareal, Ochoa, and Teixeira. They talked about goals, not getting discouraged, talking with everyone we see, and finding the prepared. It was an amazing Conference.

I CANNOT believe that i have less than a month left! It is becoming more real and it's honestly freaking me out... but it will be okay. All of you are great supports so it will be okay. 

How are you doing? 

Mom and Dad, I am really happy  There are always things to overcome, but I am really happy.

Are you feeling better this week?

Yes, things are going well. We have SOOO many people to teach and they are all so close to baptism. I am so excited!

How's the work coming?

Things are so well! We have tons to teach, many people to help, and so many people wanting the gospel, we are struggling to have time to teach them all! I love it!

Were you able to pick up your prescription that Dad called in?

Yes! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! My face was starting to get bad, but now it is a lot better!

I am trying to get the motivation to write in my journal and remember all the things that happened, but we just have no time anymore. There is no down time, but I like it that way. 

Also I have been working on something called "My plan" and it has been amazing. I have been able to really set goals for the future and think about how I want to live my life afterwards.

Life has been insane! I will try to sum it up in a couple bullet points:

*My Spanish has improved a lot! I am so excited about that

*I have been learning a lot lately about life in general and dealing with people. It's been a challenge but it's all good. 

*we have been finding so many people to teach! It is just crazy! Like 5-7 every week! That is a lot for our mission!

*We had had some hilarious experiences talking to people and being in lesson when members do crazy things

*we have 5 exchanges to do these next 4 weeks

*we have had some crazy people to teach who have schizophrenia and talk about their exorcisms

*we will have 2 zone conferences and 2 MLC's (mission leadership conference) this transfer

*Have Elder Teixeira come and really get us all excited about missionary work again

It's just been a crazy time here in the Texas San Antonio Mission! 

Con muchisimo amor
