YOYOYOYO mi familia y amigos!! I found "THE QUESADILLA!" Not gonna lie, I was kind of disappointed with the quesadillas here so far. It’s one of my favorite foods, and I was expecting better! Until... some members took us out to eat quesadillas, and these quesadillas were GIGANTIC and FANTASTIC! THE BEST QUESADILLAS IN THE WORLD, no doubt! Of course, I took photos! Hermana Boden is HAPPY and FULFILLED now that she found the quesadillas she has been looking for! My workout was definitely a little longer that night! Also, I forgot to tell you guys about an incident from a few weeks ago! Hermana Huerta and I had just finished eating at a member’s house, and we were walking in the street when we saw this guy walking slowly and drunkenly toward us. He had blood running down both sides of his mouth! I would literally compare him to a ZOMBIE. He was walking closer and closer to us and was saying things that I did not understand. Hermana Huerta said he was saying in Spanish, "Wh...

¡Buenos días! ¿Cómo están? How is everyone doing? Here in Cacahoatán, a member, Hermano Marvin, has been teaching my compañera and me more about the history of the Book of Mormon, and let me tell you, it's FASCINATING! After our discussion, he asked me how I felt, and I said, "NO TENGO PALABRAS" - "I HAVE NO WORDS." First off, he showed us a map of the Book of Mormon lands, which are in the Mesoamericas. He says Hermana Huerta and I are extremely lucky because we are literally serving in "A PROMISED LAND" mentioned in the Book of Mormon! There are a few stones here, but one we specifically focused on is the IZAPA STONE (The Tree of Life). This stone includes many pictures and symbols from the scriptures! Ahh, I wish I could sit down and explain it all to you right now! I still need to do a lot more research, though. I bought a stone and will put a picture of it in my Google Photos, along with the map, for you all if you are interested! You can basicall...

¡ FELICIDAD !

Alright folks, let's get down to business! This week we had a lot going on, so be ready for a lot! Our friend Efrain got baptized! About Efrain: He is 14 years old, with the kindest heart, and is extremely intelligent! Everywhere he goes, he holds the door for people, welcomes everyone with a smile and handshake, and always tries to speak English with me (he loves our English class). We love him! What a blessing it was to witness his baptism. So wholesome! The part of his baptism that touched me the most was his mom's testimony. She talked about salvation and how she is grateful that her son will be saved. She cried. I wanted to cry. It truly was a beautiful experience! I am so happy and excited for them and their journey to salvation and exaltation! A cat got into our house! It took us forever to get it out too, haha! Once we let it out, Hermana Huerta said, "What if it dies?" I kindly told her, "There will never be any cats in this house." Yesterday was mi...
