Hola!

Another week in la gran misión. First off, Presidente gave us an assignment. We read The Living Christ in our last zone meeting, and we talked about it a lot. It was cool to read and cool to think about Christ. Then he told us to write our own The Living Christ, with our own testimony and own thoughts. My comp and I were excited to do it, and mine is 5 pages front and back. It was a really cool thing to do, and I learned a lot. I think Presidente wants to read them or have a copy for interviews this week. In other news, we should have 1 maybe 2 baptisms this week. They´re 2 little angels and their mom just needs to kick her husband out to get baptized. So there´s that. Yesterday in church, our baptism from week 1 passed the sacrament for the first time! It was sooo cool to see one of our converts up at the front. He came and passed the sacrament to us, and that was one of the coolest things ever. Because we helped him with baptism, the holy ghost, and the priesthood, and now he´s helping us renew our baptismal covenants. So cool! Also yesterday I taught half of our class for our investigators. Usually we have a teacher there but he didn´t show up, so I taught half, and my comp taught half. It was a little rough, but I think it still went good. So more about la familia Sanchez.  they´re amazing. (the dad was the representitive of the church for 15 years) we have been working with them with the family we are trying to baptize, and they clearly understand the role of the member in the conversion process. They took the family to the visitors center by the temple, take them to church every week, and just are their friends. Also, Hno. Sanchez gave me another little statue.  it´s of a real statue here in Mexico that´s really old. I forgot exactly where it is, but it´s still sweet. So our shower drain unplugged a little bit, but the 2nd shower still has to shower on a bucket. haha. My comp´s feet are getting better, but they still hurt him a lot. He asked Hno. Sanchez to give him a blessing, and I got to be apart of it. It was one of the most powerful blessings I´ve ever heard. He talked about both of us in it even though he was blessing my comp.  but he said one things that made me open my eyes in shock.  I asked Elder Willie afterwards if I understood him correctly, and I did. He said that Elder Willie and I will see the 2nd coming.  So I guess this is a warning to everyone out there. Be ready, it´s coming. haha. I loved the sign that was in Grandpa and Grandma Barton´s house.´´Jesus is coming. Look busy´´ But it was a powerful blessing. Anyways, that´s really all I have this week. I love you all so much! 

Con amor,

Elder Barton
