Hey familyyyyy,

Well this was a pretty good week. We had two baptisms yesterday a mom(Francisca)and her son(Leonardo). She is a very humble woman with a lot of problems. She is a single mom with 3 kids. She works all day monday through saturday. Her kids havent been schooled very much and they dont know how to read, that is the mom and the 9 year old dont. The other two kids are 4 years and 4 months old. But she is an example of the importance that members have in missionary work. She was a reference from a sister that has been helping her a ton. The sister owns a little bakery/restaurant and she found the lady knew her situation gave her a job, found her an apartment and then invited her to church. Shortly after she started taking the lessons and was baptized. I have only known them about three weeks and i can already see the change in them. Also yesterday we had an activity to go to the visitors center. About 60 went. We took two buses it was cool. Not very many investigators went but that also wasnt the purpose of going. We were hoping that the members would be able to strenghten their testimonies of the restored gospel and remember why we live the the way we live. And then hopefully by helping them remember and being spiritually strengthened they will feel the desire to share the gospel. It turned out great though. Too bad i wont get to see the fruits of the activity cause changes are tomorrow. I am getting changed to an area called Granjas. My comp will be elder rodriguez. So ill tell you how things go. Good luck on the house hope you get close to finishing soon . Love you guys tons and tons. Later Elder Crick
