FRENCH FRIES

This week we had some awesome lessons!!! This week we rescued Hermana Concepcion (we have been trying to rescue her for like three months)... so that happened. Then our pensions daughter was baptized! We had lots of lessons with people who I know will get baptized. They just have such amazing spirits and their desire to learn more is so great! I love it so much. We taught one of the families that we've been teaching for a while. We talked about the miracles in their lives and how they can see the Lord´s hand in their lives. We invited them to be baptized and she told us that she really wants to get baptized but she wants to wait until her nephew missionary comes home.. in over a year. Well, we´ll keep working with them. They are so sweet. We also taught a woman that is from the same family. She is so great and has so many desires to be the person that the Lord wants her to be. I can't wait for these people to really understand what the Gospel is. The Gospel really is a blessing. I love that it means good news. I'm not sure if that's what it means in spanish too.. I'm sure it does. But the gospel really is good news. The more and more that we learn and grow in the gospel, we start to see that happiness grows within us. We start to recognize our purpose and who we are. We feel the love of God more profoundly in our lives and we only desire to do good. I love that about the Gospel. Heavenly Father really does love us and only wants the best for us. The more and more we recognize that, the easier life will get. Our trials don't seem as dificult because we know that we have them for a reason and it is all part of our plan that he has created. I love that so much. I hope this week you can all ponder on the many blessings that God has given you. I love you all to death!

Funny Moment:
This week we decided to go to a chicken place for dinner. We go there a lot but we only ask for fries because the chicken isn't that great... but this time we thought we'd get chicken. We sat down and without even asking us, they brought us a plate of fries.... they know us too well.. even though that's not what we wanted! My favorite thing here is probably french fries.. they eat lots of papa. potatoes.

les quiero bastante y ojala que tangan una buena semana! mañana me voy a cusco!
