Muy Buenas Días!
 
It was a good week here in Modelo!! It was a great start to go to the temple and worship there!! It’s something that is super special and really can change your week!! It definitely changed my week for me!! We had a good week here!! We are continuing to work hard and help this area out!! The reason it’s kinda hard is because before the elders didn’t use the members so the members are sleeping!! It’s just our job now to wake them up and get them to work!! We have some great members here! They really want to do the right thing, just not sure how to do it! ha Our bishop is in D F every other week so it’s hard to rely on him, so we kind of have to run our church!! This week I learned a lot just how to go do it!! You can think about something a lot, but it won’t be done until you just do it!!
 
My comp is doing great! He has great teaching skills and I’m always learning from his teaching skills!! It’s great to learn and apply it with my teaching!! I have a long ways to go, but little by little I’m coming along!! This week not much happened, just a lot of missionary work!!
 
We have this member in our area. His name is Javier! He has a pretty great story!! So he’s not all there if that makes sense, but he knows the church is true!! The rest of his family is less active and doesn’t go to church or anything!! They don’t want anything to do with it!! So this week we went to visit him and see if he could go with us to one of his neighbors!! He said yes and what not so we went and they weren’t home!! It was ok though because a lot of the lessons we put go thru!! But we asked him who else he knows and he just started going off with all these names and persons that we could teach!! not kidding it was 18 people!! It was awesome!! So now we have a little area that kinda exploded!!! It was great and I’m hoping this next week we will have some great new investigators!! The missionary work is something that isn’t an easy experience, because salvation isn’t a cheap experience!! I love that quote by Elder Holland!! It’s not exactly right but it’s kind of close I think!!
 
Today I cut my hair!! with a little help from my comp on the back but that’s it!!! I’m gonna be pro by the time I get back!! I took some pics but I don’t have much time so I will just have to send them the next week!!
 
We had a good little experience this week!! We are teaching a lady and we taught the first vision!! It was a good little lesson that we had with her!! She has had the lessons before with the missionaries but they kinda just left her and she doesn't know why.. probably because she wasn't progressing, but we taught her and she felt the spirit!! We put a date for a baptism with her and she said she will do what it takes to be ready for the date!! Her name is Paola!! She’s great and I know that her intentions are real!!
 
I love you guys and sounds like you had a good week!! I pray that you have a good next week and continue to remember the Lord in all you do and how blessed we are to have the gospel in our lives!!!
 
Love Ky
