Hey guys!!!

It`s been an awesome week! We found another complete family!!! The Lord has really been doing His work, and it`s so cool to be right in the middle of it! the Familia Garrido is a family of 8 kids, and the mom is an ex jehova witness. We found them tracting out in the boonies one day. We had a really cool charla with them this past week about the plan of salvation, and they were on the edge of their seat! They beleived every word we said, and the spirit was so strong!  It was really interesting, one of the little boys in the family started telling all the answers to the questions we were asking about the plan of salvation, like he already knew it!  We asked him if he had ever heard of this plan before, and he told us no, but that he just knew it somehow. It may have seemed like such a tiny thing, but I thought it was really sigificant. This plan is real, we were all there in the Great Counsel in Heaven. When we talk about truth, the Spirit makes connection with our spirit, and it`s something extremely familiar. We pointed that out to this family, and they were just so amazed!! It was a really spiritual charla, I love the  mission! We`re excited for them!

We are also really working with Andres and Paula, the other complete family- the friends of the first counslor. They are SO SO SO SO ready, and they don`t even know it! They haven`t been reading the book of mormon, and we had a really powerful charla with them reading Alma 32. We explained that they HAVE to read to get their answer, something that they REALLY want. Paula told us that she`s had a lot of contact throughout the years with missionaries, and has never really had that desire to talk to them. But that when we were invited to the Family night with the first counselor, She just felt this big desire to know. Pray for them, Andres is the next mission president, or bishop! Uruguay needs him!!!

Anyway, I love you all, I know that this church is true. We are in for some really really hard times. The prophets have said over and over to be prepared. They can`t say any more than what they`ve already said. Stay close to the Lord, and serve.  I love you all, have a good week!!
