Well this has been a really fast week but ended really well. Today we had cambios (transfers) and I guess you can say I had changes. I am still in Waspán but in Waspán Sur. It includes Waspán Sur, Miguel Gutierez, and Villa Reconciliacion. And I still get to be with Elder Valle. I am one of the only few people to have served in every Waspán area 1, 2, and 3. I also get to be District Leader. So I get to run around and figure out a new area again with Elder Valle.
With the Adventists we have pretty much stopped teaching them, only sometimes. They came to the activity, baptism, and church this week. They really enjoy and always take notes, but won’t commit to a baptism date. But we have started teaching their friend named Erica. She used to go to an Evangelic church but was never baptized since she didn’t like it. She also went to every activity this week with the church. The problem is that she thinks it is necessary to study a church for at least a year before baptism. But we’ll see what happens with her.
This week we had the baptism for Orquidea finally. We didn’t have to do anything for it. One of her friends did the program and all we did was bring the clothes. But she was so happy and she already plans to go to the temple, do baptisms, prepare for a mission, get her endowments, and all that fun stuff. So I don’t think we have to worry about her staying active in the church.

Sunday was great. We only brought one other person to church this week, Bertha, she is planning on getting baptized this week. She went to activity and baptism Saturday as well. We have other baptisms planned now since we just gained more investigators because of the cambios. We also had to change houses by the way, yet again. But this is one of my favorite houses since it has a really pressurized shower. It feels great. But several members wanted to feed us Sunday, so we had four meals. All because it was Elder Zorrilla’s final day. He is now going home.
We have a lot of amazing opportunities this cambio. And I know that the Lord will help us have success. March is going to be a month of miracles. Also we had the Jehovah witnesses contact our house this week, which was funny I think. Happy Late Birthday Brandton. Sorry it is late, I thought today was the first, not yesterday, when I was writing last week. But goodbye all.
