The Best Two Years in Saltillo Mexico

Hey guys. How are you. So yeah my comp is Elder Montiel-Bravo. He is American with Mexican parents. From Seattle Washington. He's a cool guy.  Last week we found a bunch of cool people. A part-member family. A boyfriend of a member. A son of a member. And a few other people.  And wednesday it rained a little bit. Then thursday it completely down-poured. And the street we live on turned into a river.  Then Sunday we had Stake Conference and Elder Pino, President Cahoon, and the Temple President of Monterrey all came to it. They released the Stake President Cardenas, who had served for 9 years and called a new Stake Presidency. It was a really good conference and they talked about receiving revelation and what is normal for us and our families. It was awesome.  Then today it rained insanely hard once again. What a show.  Anyways, here's the pics and a video of the insane river on our street. (The videos would not work) And our wonderful...

First off. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DAD! Even though it was yesterday... But love you a lot and thanks for everything you've done for me and the fam! Also to all the rest of you father's out there!  So yeah it's transfer week again. I am not going anywhere from Obregon. But my companion is leaving to Cañada, which is still in the zone. So my new companion is Elder Montiel-Bravo, who happens to be my brother in the mission! He also speaks 3 languages and is from Seattle, I believe. So that should be awesome. Anyways, so as in news for this week. We did a lot of exchanges to do baptism interviews, so it was crazy. But amidst the craze we put a fecha with one of our investigators, Elisa, for the 8th of July. She is a reference from a member, because she said she wanted to become closer to God because of some trials and wanted to meet with the missionaries. She has gone through quite some stuff recently with her son, and really wants to overcome it by coming closer to God...

How've y'all been? I hope great!  So first off, the baptism of Lucy went great! Elder Garcia baptized her and I got to confirm her! It was kind of scary, because I hadn't confirmed anyone before, let alone in Spanish. But at this point my spanish is good enough I don't have to worry too much!:P But yeah, Lucy is definitely a real convert. On Sunday, we were planning on meeting her at a place that we usually meet her to go to church. So we get there and wait for a while and then call her. My comp asks "We are here waiting for you. Where are you at?" and then she's like "Oh I am at the church already." We were like What?? Youre already there? So then we left and went to church.:P  None of Lucy's actual family came to the baptism, but she has friends and family in the church!    We also set a date with Beatrice to be baptized for the  16th of July . Even though it's a monday, she wants to be baptized on the same day t...

So this past week was kind of crazy because a lot of interchanges went down during the week, but it ended in a fantastic way. So let's just get that news out of the way, shall we? So Lucy, an investigator that we have had for quite a while didn't want to get baptized because of different doubts, we believed. So Saturday, we were planning on inviting her to a baptism that was going to happen but fell through, so instead we just visited and talked with her.  We walked around the plaza, letting her ask questions so we could answer questions she had and try to resolve some of her doubts. And at the end, we basically asked her, "So what do you say? Will you get baptized?" And she agreed. So this weekend Lucy will be getting baptized!!! It's super exciting and she already has some great friends within the church! Now hopefully we will see if their family is interested too! Anyways, in other news. A quick rundown. Between last wednesday and today, on thursday I...
