The Wedding


Dear Family and Friends,
 
Well, it sounds like it is still just staying cold for you guys over there and that you are all just settling in to this new year. From what i hear, I take it that you guys didnt go up to Park City this year, or did ya? Well here everything is going really well, I am sending some pictures home of the wedding. This is of Ana and her husband and her family, they got married on Friday and she will be getting baptized on saturday this week. It was a pretty cool little wedding and her husband is really cool too. The older couple in the picture are his parents and they are members of the church and are sealed so he knows a lot about the church. And Ana told him after the wedding that she wants him to start listening to us so that they can go and get sealed together in the temple, and then he actually started asking us questions about stuff. So I am hoping and praying that he will get motivated and start coming to church and get baptized so that whole family can come unto Christ and be sealed for time and all eternity. Also, we started teaching this other lady named Yoris and in the first lesson the spirit was super strong, I could just feel it and I knew that she could feel it too. And then we couldnt find her at home for a while and then we passed by the other night and she told us that she had read the whole restoration pamphlet and that she had prayed and that she knows that these things are true. So I am excited to see what happens with her in this upcoming week. And see how her progression keeps going a long. Also, Yesterday all the stakes in the carribean recieved a broadcasted stake conference from Salt Lake, and Elder Beck, Elder zwick, and Elder Nelson all talked. They gave some great talks, Elder Beck told the people here that if the want to recieve blessing that they need to pay their tithing and offerings and that if they do that they will recieve many blessings that the Lord has in store for them. Elder Nelson told them that they are a blessed people and are a remant of the house of Isreal. He also told them that they need to teach their children English because english is an international languange and also needed to teach them math. And that if they learn those two things that they will prosper. He also told them that they need to stay firm in the faith and always keep the commandments, and he warned them a lot against pornography. So it was a really cool conference and their was a great spirit that filled the room has they were talking. All and all it was an awesome week this last week and now we are just getting ready for Anas baptism this saturday and we are pretty excited. Anyways, i hope all is going good back home for you guys love you all.
