hey!
so today, we had a zone activity at one of the resorts in our zone that had pretty nice sand. so we played ultimate frisbee on the sand right next to the ocean! and it is def. summer now! cuz it was hot! still is! and i sure got fried! but it was fun to get together as a zone. when i first was called as zone leader i felt like i wasn't as close to my zone mates and that they didn't really trust me, but i feel like they trust me and look at me as their zone leader now. its always weird for me to be the youngest as the leader. but thats just what happens i guess. so it was a fun zone activity.
so this week, was a great week! we had 3 companion exchanges.. wednesday thursday and friday. so  it was fun to work with the elders in my zone, but i also missed working with my companion! he's awesome! we get along so great! hopefully he doesn't transfer! and  wow, its almost transfer week! time is going by so fast!
well, i feel like i cant remember anything else that has happened this week. oh, idk if i told you, but i am the pianist in my branch. like in my last area there was at least one person that knew, but here i am the only person that knows! and im getting a lot better at it. im also teaching my companion. we barrowed a key board from a member that doesn't know how to play so in our apartment i teach my companion....when there is time! haha
well this week has been agreat week i just don't know what else to say. im all typed out! ha just know that i love you all! and im working hard and doing my best!
oh, i'll tell you about our new investigator! Rody! so his tatay,dad, is super hard hearted and won't listen and during our lesson we learned that christ was born before 50B.C. and that he was the first person to be born on the earth...so im grateful that i got to learn something new that day...haha Rody's dad is the one who said this who is a "devoted Catholic". so we taught rody, and the lesson was awesome! we've finished the message of the Restoration with him. and both lessons, we wouldn't take his eyes off us. he was so focused! so we stopped by his house before we went to church for our meetings at 7 am. and he got dressed and came with us to church...at 7AM! he was at the church for a total of like...5 hours plus! he is awesome and progressing! he really wants to know where the truth is! so thats the awesome event of my week!
and how is your BofM reading?? mine is awesome! increases my testimony everyday! don't let a day pass by without reading it!  3 things it'll do for us, it'll give us an added amount of the spirit, more desire to follow the commandments, and a testimony of our savior!. so if you want those 3 things...what do you need to do??? READ! i know that that is true and i'm doing it in my life and its a big help!
i love you all!
