Another week down!

This week I hit my month mar on friday!!!! ONE MONTH DOWN, 23 MORE TO GO!!! haha 

This week was awesome actually and it went by pretty fast. It was kinda crappy weather but its all good. Its starting to heat back up again. We just got a cold front. In the morning when we wake up we have to take a 15 second cold shower its a new rule haha if anyone knows me thats one thing I hate! But I'm trying to be exactly obedient because selective obedience brings selective blessings. But it wakes you right up so that works great. The main reason I think is why we are doing it is because it helps us conquer the natural man. The natural man does not want to take cold showers. We overcome the natural man and become closer to God. Our zone leaders suggested that we find something that we hate and do it, overcome it haha. 

We met 2 kids just street contacting the other day and they were way cool. This guy signed to play pro baseball in mexico and moves there in december. The first time we talked to him he said that he wants to be baptized again because he was baptized as a baby. He is sooooo ready for the gospel. We showed him the restoration video and he felt the spirit. He said that he could feel it was true. We set 4 baptismal dates this week so If everything goes well then we could have 4 baptisms next month. 

There isn't a lot of cubans here like everyone said, almost all the hispanics are Puerto Ricans haha but it is so true florida is just a melting pot of people. 

I had to give a talk in sacrament meeting so that was great. I said that I am from Utah, the mormon factory haha my comp says that a lot and its so true. 

We have a dent in our car and we went in to a auto repair shop and there is a lady there that was like oh you're mormons? My sister is mormon and I don't know what they believe. We taught her the restoration real quick and related her to Joseph Smith because she was wondering which church is true as well. She started to get teary eyed and it was awesome. We have a joke that God put the dent in the car so that we could go and meet her haha she is ready for the gospel. 

I love everyone!

Have an amazing week!!!
