Baptism!

Hey Fam,

We had a really awesome week, things are going so great here in this ward. Also just want to say thanks for the letter from the May Creek ward relief society, I really appreciated it! 

On Sunday we had a baptism servive for Sara, Delia, and Belen. The service went so well, we had a lot of people come to show support. The best part of the service was that three members who were with us during a lot of the visits were able to do the baptism. I love seeing the members participate in the missionary work. Its been so awesome having the members share their testimonies with all these people we have been teaching, it truly does change everything.

Well this is my last week here in this ward, just want to finish strong. I truly have enjoyed these last 4 and a half months here. I have learned so much and I am excited to get to my next ward and apply it all. I love the gospel because its the same wherever you are at. The only thing you have to do to see succes is apply it. I love seeing the change in people when they appy the gospel, including in myself.

Thanks for all the love and the support!! Have a great week and keep applying the little things. 

Love,

Baptism Toño

Hey Fam,

Another week down, things are going super great in our ward. We really had another great week!

On Sunday we had the baptism of Toño and it was super awesome. We baptised part of his family last month and we have been teaching him and he finally made the desicion and we were pumped for him. The coolest part was that the same sunday his dad got the priesthood and after the church services he was able to baptise his son. Something crazy is that his dad is missing part of one of hi legs due to an accident but that didnt stop him from baptising his son! 

I have really enjoyed my time here in this area, I have seen so many families accept the gospel and it has been such a great experience for me. I think the funniest part has been sitting in house of 6 to 8 people and teaching the Gospel to all of them. I know that the family is eternal and that God truly does love the family. When I got here in this area the only thing I wanted to do was teach families and after lots of prayers, fast, and hard work with my comps we have been blessed to see that come to pass. 

I have no doubt in my mind that this Gospel is true, I have truly seen it change the lives of so many people here in the mission. In these last couple of months I have seen how the gospel truly unites the family. It all starts by doing the little things like praying together, reading the scriptures, and attending church every week. 

I love you all so much and I hope you all have a great week!!

Love,

Noche Mexicana

Hey fam,

Well this past week went pretty well, I have really enjoyed my time here in this ward.

On saturday we had our ward activity to celebrate Independence Day here in Mexico, its really the 15th of this month but they celebrated saturday in the ward. Not going to lie it was really fun. We had a lot of our investigators there and all our converts as well. They enjoyed it so much, it was really awesome to see how much the ward has grown and how everyone just works together. 

Also we had a great week working our ward, they have been supporting us so much. We were able to teach 13 lessons with them this past week and we put 8 baptism dates with our invs.Things are going really great here in the ward. Also we had interviews with our mission president and that was awesome. I am like 100% sure he is going to become an apostle after the mission. He told me that its going to be my last cycle here in this area so I am going to try to enjoy it as much as I can. 

Thanks for all your letters and support. I love you all tons!!

Love,

Good Week

Hey Fam,

So this past week past really awesome, a crazy change is that my pdays are now on tuesday. But its all good because now we can enter the temple a lot. 

Well last week we had some really cool things happen. We had our missionary leadership council and it was so cool. Our new mission President is so awesome, we are all convinced that he is going to be an apostle. He is really helping us grow as a mission, so its been a lot of fun learning from him. Also on Sunday we had a baptism! Yesenia got baptised and it was such an amazing service. One of the coolest parts about the day was before at church she got up and shared her testimony in sacrtament meeting, super powerful. Also after the baptism she shared her testimony again and we were all in tears, I am really happy for her. 

Things have been going really well in the mission. I feel great here in my ward and with my comp. This area has been my favorite so far, the people are so great and so ready to hear the gospel. Its funny because when I got here everyone said that this ward was the worst but now its one of the best in the mission. One thing I have learned in the mission is not to let what others tell you change what the Lord wants you to do. If we just trust in Him every step of the way He will work miracles and you will always be ok. I love this gospel so much because if you are willing to accept the Lords help and trust in him, He will change your life. 

I hope you all have a great week and as always I love you all tons!

Love,

Elder Nobmann Riddle
