Great Weekend, Huh?

This last weekend was Awesome wasn't it? I loved conference! I wrote more about Conference in my other letter but all I have to say was that Session 2 was FANTASTIC! I've been doing really well. Just realized today that its October 6 and that means another month has come and gone! Crazy!

Arturo came to the first 2 sessions of conference and t-voed the rest of them since he was going up to his wife's this weekend and wasn't sure if he could convince her to go with him so he could watch it all later. He loved it! He really like Pres Uchtdorf's talk about hope! Anyway, he had his interview and he's ready to go!

The records are in and... Pedro is a MEMBER! lol it took us all week to get the bishop up to the church to find out but, he is a member. That's good. Now we can just focus on reactivating him and with Rafael and Arturo, that shouldn't be too hard for him! These guys are so awesome! I love them all!

Eliseo came to the Sunday morning session of conference. We FINALLY got Miguel, his brother, to make him talk to us and he told us he's been feeling really guilty. We told him that he needs to repent and start going to church again! So he did! We are so happy and are so excited to introduce him to our new group of Hombres!

We are so excited for Arturo to get baptized this Saturday and see him confirmed on Sunday. We know he's really excited too. I think Conference really helped him a lot too!

I'm doing really well, sorry this is short and kinda all over the place but I'm almost out of time! I love you all! Hope all is going well!

Para Siempre,

Buenas Dias Noticias - Can you believe that it's already October? I can't! Hermana Dastrup has been so excited for this month to arrive. Halloween is her favorite holiday. How is everyone? Did everyone enjoy General Conference as much as I did?

I really enjoyed the second session when Elder Wirthlin, Elder Holland, Elder Christopherson and Elder Bednar spoke. There were a couple of themes I noticed in this conference - 1) We need to prepare Zion, and 2) we need to be positive through our afflictions and trials. In California, you can really see that people are struggling and passing through difficult times. Even when we are passing through hard times, we must remember to stay positive and as Elder Wirthlin said, "Laugh!" We also need to be mindful of others. As we serve others, we will find more happiness in our own trials and afflictions.

As for preparing Zion, this starts with a change in our hearts and our mindset as a group. They spoke a lot about service to one another, finding more unity and having hope. We indeed are in these, the latter days, and the time to prepare is now. We must move forward with hope, charity and love, in faith and in unity to prepare the world for that great day when Christ shall come again and tell us the work is done.

I know these men were inspired by God and their words were exactly what we needed to hear at this time. I am so grateful for a living prophet on the earth today and for twelve apostles. they truly are men called of God to lead and guide us so that we can prepare ourselves to stand before our maker once again, clean and unspotted from the world; and this is possible only through our Saviour and Redeemer, Jesus Christ.

I love you all and hope you have a great week!

Para Siempre,
