Hola Familia y amigos!

This week passed by super fast. We had a ton of stuff to do for the transfers, mostly helping people go to their new areas while waiting in the terminal before they came.. So that was fun.. Elder Prina left for Argentina and now I'm with a Chileno named Elder Mendoza. He has about 8 months in the mission and this is his first time being zone leader, so I'm helping him out with that. We already get along super well. Haha he's a funny dude and likes to work hard so it's gonna be a good transfer.

Karina got baptized on Monday! She seemed so happy to be baptized and become a member of the church. I can definitely see a difference in her from when we first started teaching her. She is a solo mom with 4 kids so it's been hard for her but the gospel is helping and all of her kids love to come to church too. One of her kids is 8 years old and after seeing her mom now wants to get baptized too. It's great to see the impact the gospel can have on families. The gospel blesses families!

We are still trying to work a lot with the members and it's been working well. I have been able to see that when we serve others our love for them grows and we really have a desire to help them. I have really grown to love these people and want to just serve them in every way I can, so that they can come to church and receive all these blessings. "When ye are in the service of your fellow beings, ye are only in the service of your God!" I know that's true and that serving others brings joy. Have a great week! Much Love
