wow so this last week was super good, so we had three baptisms Felipe, vicente and daisy, it was all beautiful, the best part was that a really good member of the ward did the baptisms, his name is hno. ever. we eat at his house every day and i have never met a funnier guy, he used to be a drunk and about 6 months ago the missionaries found his and he changed his life, anyway we told him we had some baptisms and recently he just recieved the priesthood so we go to his house with a pair of white pants that he can use in the baptism we just whip them out and hand him the pants, he just kind of looks at me like ¨what is this crazy white boy doing with white pants¨ we tell him he is going to baptize two people and he just flips out i have never seen anyone so happy, then it hits him he has to know all the words and how to do it, andhe just starts panicking man i have never seen anything so funny but it was all realy good.
Anyway yesterday i had a huge surprise the urione family came to montero to visit me for my birthday, this is the family that i knew in santa cruz when i was training elder baker, but wow i have never reallly realized the power of the gospel that we share with people it was so amazing, they brought me a cake, and bought me a way nice watch, they are seriously one of the coolest families in the world,(and they told me they tried to contact you guys but your not answering their emails or your not looking them up on face book, they really want to talk with you guys please look for them in facebook.) ( name= neydda amerika urione farfán) she has facebook and has been trying tocontact janessa)
anyway it was super good to see them and it is amazinghow much they have changed, they are seriously amazing. i love that family it helps me realize the importance of missionary work. God really is preparring people for me, i have never seen so many miricles in my life.
This coming saturday we do not have any baptisms planned but i plan on having at least one person come unto christ, it is possible i just gotta test my faith, right now we are teaching a good family of five and we are waiting for another family to get married but we are expecting alot of baptisms these coming weeks it is just gonna take alo9t of work andalot of prayers.
i am super grateful for everything your guys dothank youso much i love you all so much i am sorrry for not writing but i am just super busy i sent some stuff home for andrew and sam i also had more stuff for janessa but i could not send it because it cost alot to send it. by the way tell that girl to write me a email. i love you all please stay firm in the gospel it is the only way to be happy.
Love Elder Olsen
