¿Hola que tal? ¿Como les ha ido?
Hope you guys are doing fine. Sounds like a pretty eventful week. Thats crazy that jill is already in college huh? Well thats life i guess everybodies got to grow up. But yeah this week was cool we found a lot of cool people that i feel will get baptized soon. Actually today we taught one of the families lesson 2 which is the plan of salvation. Its cool to see how many things they learn and to be able to respond to their questions and doubts. We also had an activity again where we went to the visitors center. It was cool we watched the restoration. Not as many members went this time but there were a lot of investigators which is cool.Thanks for the prayers i can feel them working. Man its crazy only 6 more months from this thursday. Well this area i really like its just a friendly ward and the people are willing to listen. so its way cool it just doesnt seem like there is enough time to visit everybody. Its cool though its feels satisfying at the end of the day. Well i dont really have much to say, well like i ever do but anyways. Les quiero muchismo. Cuidense. Hasta luego.

Well things are good. A little crazy trying to coordinate with two wards but its alright. Just starting to get the hang of it. We assist the stake center where 4 wards assist. The same one i was in like 10 months ago. So i pretty much know half of the people there. So thats cool. Things are good. There are a lot of people that are ready to be baptized just need a little more support. If you could please pray for them so their hearts are softened and pray for us to know what to say to them so they can accept the gospel of Jesus Christ. o Yeah and we just got done shopping at a place called waldos. Everything is like a dollar. Its awesome. I bought some lindt chocolate for a dollar. I was like wow this stuff normally costs a ton. Anyways i also bought to handmade blankets. i think they are queen size. They are cool though and i got them both for 500 pesos. So i couldnt pass that up. Anyways have you guys gotten to feed the missionaries in a while. Cause you need to. And if you do treat them good. Alright. And if you have some references give them to the missionaries. Unlce alan maybe. haha well who knows if youve never asked them if they want to hear a message then they can never accept to hear one. Well love you guys a ton thank you so much for being an example to me and for raising me correctly. Even though i didnt always follow your counsels and i made mistakes. I now realize how important it is to have a family that teaches correct principles in the home I love you guys have a great week and good luck on the house.

That makes me soo happy that you guys are doing so well. I love good people that dont mind serving others. I dont know if thats how it is or i just dont see it often but here they dont hardly serve anybody else. They are kind of selfish i guess you could say. Well they help us in what ever we want but to others they just make excuses. Maybe im wrong but thats what ive seen the last 14 months. But anyways Well im in my new area now with my comp elder Alvarez. Yeah they told me rodriguez but its alvarez. He is way cool. We have two wards due to a lack of missionaries. The mtc down here was being remodeled so no missionaries could enter. But yeah we should have a ton of work. There a ton of people that are ready to get baptized but i dont know, i think they are scared or something. But yeah so if you could add in your prayers arturo, carlos, and claudia. But yeah it will be a little crazy for the next 6 weeks until the other missionaries come and take over the other ward. Hopefully we can get these two wards excited cause they are just kind of going through the motions. But things are way good down here. I love you guys a infinity times infinity. O and youll have to send some pics of the house. Inside and out. Have an awesome week. Les quiero mucho, cuidense.

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

Man sounds like things are going pretty good. Good stuff eh? Well sorry to disappoint you guys but this week nothing really happened. We had a 7 hour long zone conference on wednesday and then next thing i know the weeks over. We have alot of support from the ward and it is soo cool. We are planning an activity to go to the visitors center here a few weeks. The bishop already announced it in sacrament meeting and said that all members need to support this activity by bringing an investigator, inactive, or recent convert. So i think things will go really good with that. This ward is almost ready to split but they lack active priesthood holders, so hopefully we can activate some priesthood. Tomorrow we are also going to the temple sweet!!!!!!! I havent gone there for about 4 months. I need to buy some hymn books, i forgot mine in my last ward and we need to buy martha(she got baptized two weeks ago) a hymn book. So things are going good o yeah we also might change apartments since right now we dont even live within the area. And where we live is pretty ugly. A couple of nights ago i thought i was going to have to fight cause there was a group of kids out drinking and doing drugs in the street and i think they dared one of them to go fight me. He started to walk up behind us but then stopped. So nothing happened but yeah its kind of a lose lose situation cause if i fight then all of his friends jump in but if i dont then i get the crapped kicked out of me soo....ANyways just everyday stuff. I have been so blessed and protected. So dont worry. Love you guys. Have an awesome week.

hey,
hows it goin? well yeah this week was pretty good we had a baptism on the 4th. Martha got baptized. It was a lot of work. Satan was fighting pretty hard so we didnt have the baptism. First we get to the church and there is water still in the font( just a little) and it was way dirty. So we needed to drain it but didnt know where the switch was so we emptied it using buckets. Soo good its emtpy so we start filling it and the new water is coming out yellow so we only have like 2 hours before the baptism so we decide to baptize with the water like that. Then the water just stops the pump quit working. So we call our bishop and tell him to start filling the font at the other church. So we get to the other church and the font is dirty so we have to clean it and then we finally start filling it. Well we had the baptism planned for 7 but we ended up having it at 830. But it was awesome she was so happy and content after the baptism. But yeah it was cool, and a good 4th. After we were going to go order some pizza but didnt have time so we just went and ate some Burger King. It was pretty good. Not much more going on except we are already in the 4th week of the change and we have changes every 6 weeks. Sounds like things are going pretty good there huh? Well at least with the house and all. Thats awesome. Did you get some pics from the 4th? Youll have to send me some right? Well love you guys a million times a million and even more. Have an extraordinarily awesome week.
