Dear Family,

Well it sounds like you guys had quite the week with the snow on monday and then close to 70 degrees by saturday, but i bet that feels pretty good. Well here i dont know if it is heating up or if it is getting more humid because we are sweating like pigs the whole day long. We carry handkerchiefs around everywhere to wipe the sweat off of our faces, it is about 90 degrees everyday with crapload of humidity, it is awesome! it rains everysingle day for at least an hour or two now too. So the climate is always changing and i think in a couple months hurrican season starts so i am excited to see what that is all about, last year there were a couple days when the elders had to stay in there houses all day straight because of the hurricanes and all it did was rain all day. And when it rains here it pours, sometimes when it is rains you can´t see the other side of the street it is super cool! lots of little kids go out and take showers while it is raining because it saves water! haha so yeah that is what the climate is like right now. Well, i know you all have been wondering but i told you last week about how we told our investigador Chelo about the sabath day, well it turns out that he came to church yesterday! Church in this ward starts at 8 oclock so he woke up at 630 and got ready and came to church we also have set a date for his baptism and he will be getting baptized the 5 of May and he is super excited about the church right now and is super excited about general conference he cant wait to hear the prophet talk and see what a living prophet is like. I am super excited for general conference too i hope we get to listen in it in english but if not it will be alot better then last time because i will be able to understand it haha. Also Dayana is right on track for her baptism the 14 of April, both her and Chelo are just chosen by the Lord and have been prepared before we started teaching them. So I am super excited for them and seeing the changes that they have been making in their lives to follow the Lord and what he wants them to do. It has been great to be here in Enriquillo and to see the Lord´s hand in the work here. Also, i want to share my testimony of fasting. Every single time i have fasted in the mission I have seen direct results of the fast. For example, we have been teaching Chelo for almost 4 weeks and every sunday he hasn´t been able to go to church so this sunday we fasted that him and our other investigadors could recieve answers to their prayers and that they could attend church. And the same week that we have the fast for him, he came to church and he accepted a date for baptism, he says he still needs to learn a lot more but that he can his feel his testimony growing little by little. So fasting is real, prayer is real and this truely is the work of the Lord. Anyways Meg Happy Stinking Birthday! I hope everything is going great for all of you back home and that you are liking the spring! Go Jazz, lets hope they make the playoffs! and the broncos with Peyton Manning wow! anways I love you all
