gee dang!! this week, especially this weekend was one of the most stressful time of the mission so far!

MANUEL IS GETTING BAPTIZED TOMORROW!!!!!!! holy biscuits and gravy. we were supposed to have our last lesson and interview with him on saturday but he had to work later and wasnt able to come! we were panicking!! we called him and talked to him for 20 minutes and just got to talk to him and get to know him more and that gave us more reassurance for where we are at right now. yesterday before church, manuel met with someone in the bishopric, we filled out his baptism record, and taught him his last lesson. all under an hour. after church he left and told us he would let us know when we could come over. but he never called nor texted us! he ignored our texts and calls. we were stressing and praying like crazy. it is so difficult to deal with people that use their agency different that what you need to happen. eventually we had the interview! he passed! baptism is tomorrow at 7!! yay!!!! we are so pumped!!! so many prayers are being answered!!

yesterday was cananda's thanksgiving! go canada!

Sister Robinson and i will be staying together another 6 weeks!! yay!!! we are so pumped and happy. we love each other. 

for the first time in my life, i decided to share my testimony on my own free will yesterday for fast sunday. in past areas they have asked the leaving missionaries to share your testimony with the ward. but no one asked me to. the spirit told me to and i did it. i was shaking so bad. i was more comfortable to do it simply in spanish. thats strange. im more comfortable speaking in spanish...huh. but i did it in spanish so that the members of the spanish group could understand and know that i was talking directly to them. it was hard. its easier talking to people face to face than in front of all them at once. 

the mission is still changing me and i love it. you guys are all amazing and important to your loving Father in Heaven. have a great week!! and do as my family does and read the Book of Mormon every. day. 

byeeee!!:)
