I´m going to have to change the subject line because it really isn´t very sunny anymore.. We are coming into Autumn and it is starting to get colder.. one day sunny the next day cloudy.. every morning and night it´s cold.. darn.. I really hoped I could work a little more on my missionary tan.. haha! 
Monday we went and played soccer at a nice field.. I was the only sister that wanted to play.. and of course then the elders told us that only the sisters could shoot goals.. we won.. by a lot! Haha! It was super fun to get to play again.. although I really missed my goalie gloves.. Later we had a family home evening with a recent convert and her friend, we also then talked to a less active member and her daughter and shared a video that is awesome called On the Way Home.. if you get a chance to watch it even though it is ancient it´s super powerful!

Tuesday we had a pretty good day, we talked to a less active member who told us that she is now planning on coming back to church.. we pray that that is the truth, but we´ll have to see how that goes. We also talked to Alicia, but she is progressing really slowly.. it´s hard for her to commit to do things and follow through.. Jesser accepted baptism!!!! We were super excited! He wasn´t able to come to church this week because they had to pick up his aunt from the hospital but when I invited him to be baptized he said yes and then asked me, but what time is the baptism? Haha I just said.. you decide and we´ll do the rest! 

Wednesday was a little slower but we did finally find a less active member we have been searching for for a month and had a short lesson with him.. later we talked with Teolinda and Estanislao again. They are super great, but they barely remember what we teach so it has been pretty hard to have them progress.. Lastly we talked with Berta, the mom of a recent convert Edson.. she also is really great but doesn´t follow through with the commitments we make..

Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday...  Haha this always happens.. I get to the end of my time and I still have half a week left to write. Not a whole lot happened that was really interesting but I do know that we now have a new spirit.. my companion and I were able to talk to the President on Friday.. he gave us some wonderful advice and I am quite positive that we are just going to be working like crazy now in our area.. even more than before! We are helping a less active family now that are going to be sealed in the temple.. they are taking the classes.. and really it is the happiest feeling to know that I am helping people to go to the temple. Also Lizbeth and Jenny called me last night and they are going to start their papers to prepare for the mission! I really could never be happier to know that I was able to help them and then they are going to help even more people.. who will help more and more.. the chain reaction is incredible.. Never underestimate how much of a difference you can make by helping one person! 

Love you all and hope you have a wonderful week!!
