Week 11

Here's a pict we had forwarded to us from a member in the DR. He served his mission with Alic Taylor, who is the son of our good friends in Farr West, UT.

From Elder Auger:
well im glad to hear that everyone is doing good, jaden looked so beautiful for hoimecoming, glad to hear that was awesome ;) haha mom and dad thanks for your letters, loved them this week, im gonna be quick because i dont have much time today.

we had interviews with president corbitt this week and im pretty sure he is the most inspired man ive ever met, he is a stud.

I heard karma kameleon on the radio during one of our lessons and that made me miss hiome a bit, that was always one of my faves! haha

we had splits with the ZLs which was awesome, it was like a spiritual sleepover, i went with elder anderson, he is a stud, it was kinda nice to speak english again, but i did notice that my accent faded the next day when i reunited with elder areas, its a blessing to have a latino companion.

cool story, during a lesson with elder anderson i was talking about the gift of the holy ghost and i said that we had to recieve it by the laying on of hands, and then the lady asked me, oh really, where does it say that in the bible? good question, i started panicking, but i knew in the back of my mind that i had read that somewhere in personal study, i started just praying and flipping through my bible, and after about 15 seconds of awkward silence i found it.i believe its in acts chapter 8, but i dont remember at the moment, however i found the scripture that says it, and she was just impressed and then we invited her to be baptized and recieve the holy ghost and she agreed, im not sure what the date is, she isnt in my zone, but i will never forget that lesson man, cool stuff, personal revelation is real!

but the language is coming along, im learning more everyday, line upon line, precept upon precept her a little and there a little, loving it, but it is hard, i have a head almost every day!

next week is conference and i might have to listen to it completely in spanish which makes me scared, i want to understand it fully andc idk if i can do that yet... we will see...

all is well here in the DR my passport is fine, im fine, safe and feeling good, missing you guys, but making it through, i find joy in something every day, even though its super hot, i cant understand hardly anything still, im tired all the time, 6:30 is hard... but with the help of the LORD im doing it.

i love you all, i will send pics next week, not much to see this week, love you all!
