How is everyone doing?! I had another great week in the mission and we didn't have to eat Mondongo so that is the blessing this week. We had a normal week of normal lunches. Awesome. Anyways we had a really good week. Quick story. We went up to a park way high up in the mountains called Parque Arvi. You probably can look up some pictures on google to see how cool it is. But We took these cable cars for like 40 minutes to get up here and its just an awesome view and you can see everything in all of Medellin. They also have a bunch of cool food and stuff you can buy up there from little stands. So if any of you end up coming here, I would suggest going there because it is so cool.

Anyways we had a General Authority come this week named Élder Montoya. We woke up on Saturday to go hear him speak to us and give us advice to better our teaching and what not at 4 in the morning and left our house at 5ish. We went to the chapel and listened to him speak and we also sang two hymns for him. The army of Heleman and also the mission hymn. I led the music and it was super stressful to do because it was in front of a General Authority. So that's fun. But I did alright and I am still alive. But we got to listen to him talk for about 2 hours more or less and we heard a lot of really cool stories from him about his mission and what not. But that's about it from that day. The days before this we were preparing for him to come and getting everything really nice for him. It was pretty cool.

Other news this week with our investigators. We put another baptismal date this week for the 14th of April. We have 6 dates right now and are really working hard with them to be able to achieve this date. We only had two investigators show up to church though. And We planned for about 7. But the two that showed up, Isabela and Nelcy are both doing really good and will be able to be baptized hopefully the date that we have given them. Isabelas parents are struggling with going to church. But we hope that they can get their soon. We are doing all we can to get them to go. Anyways that's a quick overview of our week. We are working hard and trying to do the best we can with our work. Also I am learning a lot more in Spanish and also the mission and will be killing it next week. Sorry for the shortish email this week. Not a ton to talk about.

Tom Cruise! Oh just kidding... it's just me again.
Oh quick story, Gabriel our recent convert brought 3 new investigators to us!! So awesome. We scheduled a lesson with him to teach him and we showed up at his house and he went to every door in the house he lives in, knocking and saying. Do you guys want to hear the words of God? SO we got 3 news.
Alright love you all! HAve a great week.
