September 21, 2015 We cannot follow Jesús Christ unless we are willing to keep his commandments.

Dear Family,
Another awesome week of blessing and miracles! Good to hear that everything is going great at home! Last week, there was a morning where all of our plans and appointments fell and so we were just contacting and contacting and not finding anyone that would even let us in. We had like a half an hour until lunch so we decided to leave that área and head for the lunch and when we got there, there was still like 15 minutes so we decided we would make some last contacts and the very last person we contacted let us in and we ended up having a lesson and putting a baptismal date with her and her son! She and her son came to church yesterday! So I know the lord blesses for last minute efforts. She has problems with smoking and her son with drinking and they both committed to quiting! We shared 2Nephi 31 and helped them understand a Little bit better the baptism and how it can change their life. Its not just getting in the wáter and immer what is going to change you because we could find anyone on the Street and baptize them and they would still be the same person as before, but its the preparation you do before that changes your life. If you can come to live all the requirements of baptism,  you can be changed. And that is why the baptism brings blessing. We cannot follow Jesús Christ unless we are willing to keep his commandments.

Also, this week was the Independence day for Mexico so we had a fiesta in the church and ate tamales after. It was a Little bit different then going to like the stadium of fire but it was OK.
Also, this week we found a man that has killed before but really wanted to change and so we taught him about repentance, the only problema is that he hasn't been to jail for them, so he has to paid the law so wouldn't be able to be baptized and so we told him that he would have to turn himself in to repent.

I love and miss you all
