Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise... I might only qualify for one of those.

This week I´ve been healthy!  Yipppeee!  We started working... and the members too!  they seriously just kicked it into gear this week.  We had lessons in the homes of members, left with the young men all week, and there were even visits going on without us even assigning them.  A couple of relief society sisters visited a family of 6 and did a birthday party for her.  She said that pretty much no one would have done anything for her on her birthday had it not been for them.  I´m filled with love and gratitude for those two sisters!  We even had less active young men going out with us, and recently activated members ask to do lessons in their homes.  So great!  I think that this next Sunday we start to see the results here.

Friday, we´re going to start teaching a super dynamic doctrine class, and a member wants to teach it for us.  He never ever ever has worked with any of the missionaries before.  We´re the first.  He loves computer graphics, so I talked to him about all his projects on Blender, and all that just made him love me.  And he wants my companion to teach him piano too.  haha.  They all think that we´re going to end the mission together, but that´s pretty much impossible.  haha, but we´re trying to convince them still to let us train a newbie together.  We´ll see...

The miracle this week was with Summer.  He´s been having problems getting his papers for marriage due to a divorce.  He´s been going to church and visiting with the missionaries for over 6 months.  This week we´ve been praying that he´ll be able to pay to get his partida de soltería, and then Friday he got paid!  No one was paying him even though he was working.  This was a major miracle because if it had come any later, costs for getting him married in September would have been more than double, and he´s pretty poor.  But now he´s really excited to get married and then baptized this Saturday.  I know that he´ll be a great member and that he´ll magnify his priesthood.  And soon he and his wife (reactivated member) will be able to get sealed with their little girl.  We really love him.

I love you all, and hope that you all share the gospel every single day!  I´m never going to stop being a missionary!

Love,
