Hola familia, como están?

This past week was great! I dont even know where to start... well okay first off on Tuesday Jennifer came with us all day to all of our appointments :) it was such a joy for me to be able to watch someone i teached, teach and testify to someone else. Her testimony is already so strong, and she beams when she talks about the gospel. So that was such a great reward for me.

While we were with her we went and visited a young man named Albero. We found him last week and asked if we could come visit him and he said yes so we went over and stated to teach him. His famly didnt want to listen at that moment, but he did. As we began to teach i could tell that there was something going on inside of him, and that he was not happy with his life. He said he didnt know the purpose to his life, and that is kinda just going throught he movements everyday because that`s what we do as humans sometimes. The spirit was so strong as we testified to him of the Plan of Happiness. That he is a son of God, and that God has a purpose for him. we ended the lesson by giving him a Book of Mormon and telling him that if he reads it, he will find a purpose for his life. As he took it in his hands he started to cry and just thanked us for the book. Yesterday he came to church. It was such a miracle. I can already see a change in his eyes!

Also we have been working a lot with Jenny and her family. They are the best people ever and i love them sooo much, and am soo happy with there progressing. We went with them on Monday and they were all just soo happy to sit down and learn. Jenny and Jose are very exicted for their kids to get baptized this week, and we are so happy to help them.

Franchesca is home!!!!!! She came home on Thursday and when i saw her i literlly screamed and ran into her arms!! i am soooo happy that she is finally home safe and happy! and she is still progressing, and we are working right now to plan out her baptism :)

Saturday here was Mother`s day so we went and did stuff for the moms here in escazu :) Like you saw in my picture we gave flowers to our cook because she is like our mom here, she cooks us food and washes our clothes. We love her so much! also on Friday night we had a big activity in the church for all the moms and it was super fun!

Love,
