LIFE IS GREAT HERE IN JUAREZ!!!!

WHAT A WEEK!!!! :)  THE SUN IS SHINING AND ALL IS WELL!!!! :)  Sound any different than usual?? ;)

This week Hermana Ellsworth and I had some awesome experiences, some really really hilarious and some really really powerful!!! 

First of all a few weeks ago a man came to our ward who lives in another area but stopped by to see the church.  His name is Oscar, and he is awesome!  He use to go to church every week with his ex-girlfriend but something bad happened there so he doesn't go with her but still wants this in his life, because he knows it is true!  He told us that he just wants to be baptized and feel really a part of this family that we have!  He is progressing A LOT and reading, and he actually came to the baptism that the hermanas had last week!!  He is really a cool guy, and the ward loves him!  He is starting to go to activities with them already!  HE IS GOING TO FIT IN GREAT!!!!!!!!!  He really is a miracle, and is just waiting to be baptized!!!  Hopefully the day comes around soon soon soon!!! :)

Also we received a reference from a family in our ward (the family of Lamar and Diana!) and we went and contacted them and they are ENGLISH SPEAKERS!!!!!!  We always have the best of luck!!!  I think the Lord is telling me that I need to practice my English more!!!  They are really awesome; they have been through a lot of hard things but they are searching for something that is going to help them!!!  WE REALLY HOPE THAT THEY COME TO THE CONFERENCE THIS WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)  They also have a little girl who is almost 2, (just like Beckham!)  So I am preparing for the shock when I see my big, huge, all grown-up nephew!!! 

I want to share with you EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I WISH THERE WERE WORDS TO EXPLAIN HOW GREAT EVERYTHING IS TURNING OUT!!!!!!!!!!!  I finally feel like all my work here in Ninos Heroes is paying off!  We have never found so many new investigators or seen so much progress in the members and less actives!!!  LIFE IS GREAT HERE IN JUAREZ!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

PREPARE FOR CONFERENCE!!!  IT IS GOING TO BE A GREAT ONE!!!
 READ YOUR SCRIPTURES!!!  AND PUT THEM IN YOUR LIFE!!!
SERVE EVERYONE!!!  THAT IS THE WAY YOU FEEL TRUE HAPPINESS!!! 

LOVE YOU ALL!!!
