Hi Family!

This has been a great week! We had a referral from some the elders for an awesome family up in Muckleshoot, the Indian reservation here. We went over there and taught a lesson. The dad and son were there and really felt the spirit. We are so excited to help them learn about the Gospel! Lilia is just a jewel and we can hardly believe how faithful she is. She has a hard life, but she is willing to make the sacrifices and changes so that she aligns her will to the will of her Heavenly Father. She is a really great example to me of faith. We have also been running into a lot of Spanish members here that have never been to the temple before. We are trying to help them get there so that they can enjoy the blessings and help their ancestors enjoy the blessings of the temple as well. I love the temple! We are starting to teach Elvia's husband, Silvio. (Elvia is who got baptized last transfer). He is a good man and we can hardly wait to help him accept the Gospel. I just want them to get sealed and be a happy family :) We are hoping that Veronica can get baptized this upcoming Saturday. We just love her and her family and want her little daughter. Maite, to have the opportunity to be raised in a home where Jesus Christ is the center. One thing I have really grown to love here is our district and zone meetings. I love hearing other people share experiences and advice about how to better help the people. I love you all and hope that you have a great week! Jesus Christ wants everybody to come unto Him and partake of the peace and happiness that comes only from that source. One lady, Maria, is such a good example. She has had some ridiculously hard things happen in the last month, and when we were talking to her she said "I am not happy, but I feel peace." What a miracle. Her world can fall apart, but because she has a foundation built on Jesus Christ, she feels peace and tranquility. I love you all!
Love,
