Missions are so dang funn!!

Hey everyone!

This past week has been hard!

Its always Hard!

But its just fun!

Our friend Rodolfo is progressing so much! We are building a strong relationship as friends, he is 60-70ish yrs old and he is so funny!

Yesterday We came over to his house and asked how his book of mormon reading went,

He said I read ALL of Alma 43, which has 54 verses! (It was the chapter about captitan moroni, but still)

In a past lesson with rodolfo we were discussing this great plan of salvation that heavanly father has for us!

We were Reading in Alma 40 and he read vs 23: 

The soul shall be restored to the body, and the body to the soul; yea, and every limb and joint shall be restored to its body; yea, even a hair of the head shall not be lost; but all things shall be restored to their proper and perfect frame.

   

Rodolfo is older and balding, hes got a lot of mileage on his body, when he read that verse the spirit came so strong and he bacame so happy! It was such a tender moment!

He told us, "Entonces,,,, cuando la resurrecion pasa, puedo tener un cuerpo PERFECTO y Fuerte con pelo hermoso y RUBIO???

He was saying: when the resurrection happens I can have a perfect and strong body, with beautiful long blonde hair hahaha

It was so great!

Everytime we have a lesson him he learns so much and he is always so excited to read in the Book Of Mormon and have a little lesson!

The language is coming so well! But the better my spanish gets the worse my english gets

Im so grateful for the gift of tongues and heavenly fathers help, because I could not do it with out him, nor with out the much support from family and friends!

The bike is fun! compton is still a crazy place,

Feel free to email back ive got LOTS of crazy stories if you want specifics!
