Week 71 Jardines Obregón

Hey everybody. The weeks are flying by here in Obregón. This week the heat started for real, and it´s still just starting. I´m not ready for the 6 month long summer of intense heat... 

Here´s the status of the progressing investigators:
Pedro: He was the one that told us that he wanted to be baptized as soon as possible, but we have to help him stop smoking. He´s doing remarkably well. Actually his baptism is this Saturday. We have already baptized his wife, Ivonne, his daughter Milagros, and his mother-in-law Maria.

Olga: She is progressing really well too. Her 11-year old son Leonel read like 20 chapters in the Book of Mormon in like 2 days. She has gone to church 3 weeks in a row and has went the the mothers day activity. She sounds like she is pretty sure that she wants to be baptized. She has a few minor doubts/questions, but should be baptized with 2 of her sons next Saturday.

Gregorio: He is progressing slowly but surely. He always has a ton of questions. At first he didn´t want to rush a baptism because his sister got baptized but after many years of listening to the missionaries. She is actually a returned missionary and is helping us out a lot. He seems really interested in the church, and is planning on being baptized next saturday with Olga and her sons. It´ll be 5 baptisms in one day!

Those are the investigators that our progressing. This week, the most interesting thing that I did was that we had divisions with some other Elders. I got stuck being with an Elder with is known throughout the mission as the most annoying guy in the whole world. I got through it though. I just tried to ignore him the whole day. I don´t want to sound too negative, so I won´t get into the details.

On Thursday we will be having a zone conference. The last zone conference with President Munive. I feel like this next transfer is going to be super crazy getting a new president and everything. A nice little change will sure be what I need to keep working hard and finish the mission off strong. I love you guys a ton. Take care!!
