"every day that we get to go out and work and serve"

hey guys,

sorry for not writing yesterday, and i don't have much time for today, but i'm gonna give a quick update of the week and answer the questions. so we have been working with maribel and juan and janet mostly to get them ready for their baptisms. maribal is doing awesome and is totally ready for her baptism this saturday!!!!! all we have to do is have the final baptism interview with her this wednesday and then she'll be the newest member of the church here in conti!!

the bad news is that the divorce process is going longer than we thought and juan and janet had to have their baptism date pushed back to the 7th of march. its ok though because they are still super excited and looking forward to it. this saturday is changes, crazy how fast these past 6 weeks have gone by. ill send pictures and let you guys know about the changes next monday!
