Baptism!!!!

Hola

Hey Everyone! This week was really good! It was filled with lots of things going on. First I will start with Tuesday. Tuesday half of the mission went to the temple for a session. With President Mann we go to the temple twice a year. Elder Ayala and I left our house at 5:30 in the morning. We got to the temple around 9 in the morning for a 10 o`clock session. It was so awesome! I love going to the temple so much, I am so grateful for the opportunity I had to work in the temple before I left for the mission. The temple is truly the House of the Lord and we should strive to be in there as much as we can. Everytime I go into the temple I feel of the Lord`s peace and love for us. Heavenly Father and Jesús Christ are truly watching over us and are there for us in all times of need. After the session in the temple, we had Zone Conference. I love Zone Conference because it is an opportunity to spend time with other missionaries. We ate pizza and had the Conference with President and the AP`s.

The highlight of my week for sure was yesterday. Yesterday after the church services we had two BAPTISMS!!!! One was our investigator Yaquelin and the other was Ariadna, a 8 year old girl that wanted us missionaries to do the baptism. I had the opportunity to baptize Ariadna and Elder Ayala baptized Yaquelin. It was such an amazing experience and was a testament to me of how happy I am to be doing the Lord`s work. I want everyone here in Mexico to have that chance that Yaquelin did. Even though the boiler broke on the Font and the baptismal wáter was freezing, it was such an amazing experience for me. I think the best part about it was at the end we gave Yaquelin and Ariadna a chance to bare their testimonies. The Spirit hit me strong especially when Yaqueline testified that Heavenly Father and Jesús Christ are real and then she looked straight at her husband and daughter and said "I know that I can live with my spouse and daughter forever and that makes me so happy." What a blessing that is to me is to see happiness in her life and to see that she knows she can live with her family forever. That is the greatest blessing we could ever recieve is to live with our families and Heavenly Father forever. It was such an awesome experience for me! We have another baptism this Saturday the 25th and I am so excited for it! We are going to have the baptism for Domitilia! Last night also we had the opportunity to watch the Face to Face with Elder Oaks and Elder Ballard. What great advice that we recieved from them during the devotional! By the way, that was not my mission that was on the Face to Face haha. I wish it was but it wasn`t.

Today was awesome! Elder Ayala and I went to Centro de Ciudad de Mexico with Elder Tec and Elder Queen. It was so cool, it was my first time actually seeing Centro. There were huge old modern looking buildings and a cathedral! It was so awesome! I saw people from Spain and the United States. We talked to lots of people. Elder Queen and I got interviewed by girls that had homework to do an interview in English and then translate it. Haha you could tell they were pretty scared to talk to us in English. It was a good Pday though! I hope everyone has a great week and a great Thanksgiving! Enjoy the Turkey because they don`t celebrate it here haha.
