This week i got super spoiled. First on the actual day i got invited over by a family to eat some cake. it was sure cute and they sang feliz cumpleaños. the next day was a baptism of the elders in our ward. so went to go support. Little did i know that the Bishop told everyone in the ward that it was my birthday. the bishops wife made me a cake(yes cake number 2) and everyone at the baptism sang happy birthday to me. and then all came around giving a beso on the cheek or a handshake. i was super embarrassed because i was like its the day of the baptism girl! not me! but oh well i felt super loved. and turns out some members gave me some gifts. i got a tank top from my investigator Yazmin and a cute coin purse from hna Iskra. the birthday surprises keep coming through the week. then yesterday the marquez family we were all eating lunch. and then they came in with a candle and sang to me. i feel very grateful for the members in my ward and for the love i feel from them when I'm so far from my family.
we are still looking forward to see if Yazmin will get baptized this week on the 29th. pray that her grandparents will be patient and happy with her. oh and looks like my prayers were answered. I'm not sure how but the kittens disappeared they are now gone. hope they re okay. I'm grateful for this time that i have to be here and serve the Lord full time. its surely the hardest thing Ive ever done. but its the time i have to loose myself and give my will to the Lord. i know that I'm changing for the best. i love you all and i know that this is the true restored church of Jesucristo. and i will not deny it. don't forget to pray and read your scriptures!! :)
