¡Feliz cumpleAÑO a mi! 1 year!!!

Hey fam y amigos!
Yep, it`s true... i`m OLD now! Egh.. yuck... i don`t like that word... but I now have more than a year in the mish! Pretty crazy how fast time flies, eh?
This week ROCKED!!! Ok... well.. some of our numbers weren`t the best, but our big goal was to get people in sacrament meeting, and thanks to some awesome members who did divisions with us in the morning to go look for people, we had EIGHT!! YAY!!! We were way happy. We`ve had a lot more people progressing lately, but sacrament is always hard to get, so we really made that a focus. It`s so wonderful to see that hard work really does pay off!
Claudio also finally got confirmed (the one who got baptized but had some problems afterward). It was actually really cool, because we got to church RIGHT when it started, and saw Claudio with his aunt and uncle who are members (but inactive), so we were way happy. Then, afterward I went up and thanked his aunt and uncle for bringing him to the capilla (sometimes its hard for him to come), and they said "Oh no, we didn`t bring him, he brought us!" Que capo, eh? :)
We also are finding tons of people who are way prepared! This week, we went to teach a girl named Andrea, who`s 18 and the gf of one of our inactive members. When we went she told us that her little sister Celeste (16) had found a book of mormon in her house, and started reading it by herself, and when she saw that we were visiting Andrea asked her if she could listen too. Then we went another day and taught both of them, and she`s AMAZING!!! When we asked her what she wanted most in her life, she said she wanted to "clean her soul" and be clean from her sins. And she`s only 16!! It was way cool. SO, we have big hopes :)
Anyways, that`s the update for the week! Life is wonderful as always! Of course it`s filled with challenges and hard times, but that just makes it so much better! If not, we`d never learn anything.
Be happy. Smile lots. Be good. I love you all tons and tons!!! :)
