Heyoooo

Hey everyone! Another week has gone by here in San Ysidro! It's been a good week! Last week I expressed concern about the language, and don't get me wrong that is still very much a concern, but I've noticed more and more that I'm able to follow the conversation and its general direction easier and easier as well as pick up on more words and phrases. 

I had my first normal Sunday here with the ward and it was really cool! My companion and I had to help pass the sacrament and I learned for the first time just how much the youth look up to missionaries. My first time ever meeting some of these kids and they were asking me where they should go and what they should do. I'm here thinking I don't know I'm in your ward! But it was a cool experience and I'm excited to get to know these young men and work with them over the next few transfers! We also had a general authority in our sacrament meeting! Sister Craig from the Young Women's general presidency! She spoke on learning the language of the spirit, and how, just like a language like Spanishv(she served a mission in south america), we have to constantly practice the language of the spirit if you want to develop and keep it. 

We taught Elizabeth the plan of salvation this week AND she accepted a baptismal invitation! I'm so stoked and cant wait to keep working with her and helping her get ready for that! 

I also met lupita and Octavio Torres this week. They are an older couple who have been coming to church and we meet with them Thursday! Hopefully Octavio will have received his answer just like lupita! 

That's all the excitement for this week! I love and miss you all!
