Week 36: General Conference and Easter!

Hola familia y amigos!

This week went by pretty fast and it was really hot! Not a lot of note worthy things happened this week, we don't have book of mormons down here in Leticia so contacting has been a little tough but we've been working with some really good investigators.  Juan Carlos is a 17 year old kid who's going to get baptized this week, he reads the book of mormon every day for like 30 minutes and he's really excited for his baptism. Then we're also working with Carolina Curico, a couple days ago she told us she got her answer that she knows the Book of Mormon is true, she's awesome and we're working with her for her baptism on the 14th of April. We also have some great stuff happening at the rehab center, we're teaching the Director David Porras and we teach all the patients once a week. 

Then we had General Conference, Elder Jeppson and I were able to watch it in English which was awesome, we bought a lot of really bad food so we both agreed to go on a diet afterwards!! haha.  It was amazing getting to sustain President Nelson
and Elder Gong and Soares, it was also really special to get to watch conference on Easter  Sunday, I loved Elder Uchtdorf's talk about Christ and how his resurection is the most important event that has ever happened. Without Christ we wouldn't be able to go back and live with our heavenly father, I'm so honored that I have the opportunity to teach of Christ and his importance to the people of Colombia here
on my mission! Today was okay, we got our haircut and that was about it, there's not a whole lot to do here in leticia  besides sweat! Love and miss you guys, hope you all have a great week!
