¡Parrillada!

Hello family! Its great to hear from you! I love you all! We´re still having fun here in Callao! There´s always a little stress with the zone but nothing too bad. This week was great! We are getting along really great and Elder Ramirez helps me stay focused and busy. I appreciate it a lot. We have to be examples for the entire zone. I am trying really hard to stay focused.

This week one of Hermana Brake´s grandaughters, Juleysi, turned 8 and wanted me to baptize her. The baptism was on thursday, the 28th, which is a big holiday here. Almost the entire Brake family was there. Most of them are less active or inactive. It was cool for them to all be there. Then yesterday we were able to teach one of her older grandsons and he told us that he wants us to help him come back to the church. It was really neat. I think seeing the baptism helped him a lot. 

We also organized a ward family home evening. It went really well and quite a few members showed up. Antonio showed up too, he was the first person to show up. He is becoming more active than the members hahahaha! He was there at church on Sunday too. He has a goal to be baptized on the 20th. Benigno came to church for the first time too. He is an alcoholic that we met last week. He really wants help getting out of his addiction and is doing a good job so far. He used to be so bad that when he would go a day without drinking his hands would tremble. It is tough but he really wants to change his life and get baptized. It cool to see how much progress he has made so far.

Today we had a zone barbeque! (Parrillada) It was a blast! We just finished cleaning everything up. It was my last zone pday!

Well, I think thats it! I love you all!!! Have a great week!
