Happy Valentine's day and yes, this will be the last official update. Next week, we'll be visiting some past areas and good people I've been blessed to know over the past two years. At most, I'll send a short email and maybe some pictures to let you know I'm still alive. Just want to express one more time how grateful I am for my mission.</div>

This past week was pretty easy-going. Service project with Bella and Javier and their family who moved about 100 yards down the block. Still, service continues to be one of my favorite parts of the mission. <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1783701424" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span>, the branch Presidency gave the missionaries the chance to talk about the themes from last conference or missionary work. Pretty much open theme and we enjoyed the opportunity. Elder Fernandez spoke first talking about a story of Indians who send their kids on a journey blindfolded, but in reality, the father is there the whole time guiding them. Something like that, but the point was that Heavenly Father is that same personaje for us, always there, always watching us. I followed touching on three points on the member's side to help in the missionary work in Estanzuela. 1. Branch counsel 2. Home/visiting teaching 3. Friendshipping. A few member's recognized that the talk would be my last and that it was a "planch" as they say here. Seemed to motivate them.</div>

Last invitation... Almost off the hook from Elder Allgaier. I want to invite you all to my homecoming talk on the 26th and ask me about an experience I had, there are many and I want to remember them. But I also want to give a special invitation to the youth or anyone who still has the chance to serve a mission. If you are still not sure if you are going to serve a mission, ask Heavenly Father and SEARCH for an answer. That doesn't mean just pray. That's for youth who might even be in Primary too. If you have received an answer and are preparing, read <a href="https://www.lds.org/manual/preach-my-gospel-a-guide-to-missionary-service/what-do-i-study-and-teach?lang=eng" target="_blank">PMG <i>(Preach My Gospel) </i>ch. 3</a>. Thank you all for supporting me and my family these past two years. Dios vive y nos ama a todos y nos bendice por nuestros sacrificios. La Iglesia es verdadera y nos ayuda tener las ordenanzas de salvación necesarias para regresar con nuestro Padre Celestial con nuestras familias para siempre. Nos veremos la proxima semana, cuídense!!</div>

How many of these do I have left? One or two, depending on how my last pday goes visiting my past areas. Wow, how fast the time goes by looking back on it. The best two years. Other clichés... Everything good in Estanzuela this week. Actually, we visited a part of the (very big) area that we almost never visit because of lack of transport, but a few members were willing to help us visit a few references we had in Santiago. Santiago is much prettier than the 1 square mile of area we usually work. Very green, nice people, there's even a lake! Makes me feel like home.</div>

One person we found from the references was named Martin who had reported reading the Restoration pamphlet five times. The member who came with us started talking a bit and mentioned prophets, which sparked Martin to ask the question every missionary longs to here, "Where are the Prophets and Apostles today?" I just happened to be in the other room at that time, but Elder Fernandez filled me in at the end. I still kind of heard him ask the question. He says he will come to Church this <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1954635327" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">coming Sunday</span></span>.</div>

Quick invitation. Thanks for talking with your seminary teachers last week, those who did. This week I invite you all to share the Gospel in some way. Kind of a free<span style="font-size: 12.8px;">bee, it can be with members, preferrably non-members, but this one comes from inspiration from the Acosta family who are awesome members. If they can do it, you can too! Love you all, take care!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
There has been a huge change in the missionary world this past week via worldwide transmition <i>(transmission/broadcast) </i>from the Executive missionary counsel presided by Elder Dallin H. Oaks that all the missionaries were able to see. One big change: Only four key indicators (Baptisms/Confirmations, Investigators at Church, Investigators with Baptismal date and New investigators). The other big change involves the schedule basically giving us freedom to move around aspects of our daily routine (personal study, exercise, etc.) before leaving the day. We're all very excited and I'm happy to see how all of missionaries are humble enough to take on the changes. One even said 'In leadership counsels we've been talking about how to solve a problem like putting bandages on a flesh wound. This is the change we've been looking for.'</div>

I personally feel like these changes are helping me to adjust to coming home, BUT I'm not trunky <i>(=wanting to come home)</i>. In fact, we are working a lot with the seminary teacher and youth leaders with the branch mission leader to use the extra freedom to focus on those between the ages of 15-25. We know they are especially important based on the words given by the institute Director/stake President Tapia (from Anahuac) and the Seminary 2nd counselor who came to the zone conference last Thursday. One said, 'Let us help you by bringing people to a place where they will be surrounded by the gospel and good friends their own age.' Good enough for me. The branch's seminary teacher is also much more enthusiastic seeing some help from someone else.</div>

I invite you all to talk to the seminary teacher in your ward (wherever you might be) just to get to know him/her and ask if there is something you can do to help with the youth. Something that the seminary counselor told us to do as well. I know Heavenly Father loves the youth of His Church. If you're like one missionary who said 'But what if our seminary teacher is inactive?' do as he responded: 'Activate her!' Gotta love the mission. Love you all, thanks for your prayers!</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Thank you for those who accepted the challenge last week to study a Christ-like attribute, I hope it was an edifying experience. I certainly liked studying by topic as well, here's what I learned...</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: #e7e6e2; color: #666666; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">I completed the study of reading the passages of faith in PMG and the references of those scriptures. In the three sections (what is faith, how do you obtain faith/what can I do with faith, what blessings come through faith) I was able to learn a few new things. Concerning the first question, what is faith, the scriptures teach that we cannot have perfect knowledge while having faith. The example in Alma 32 is the clearest to explain that principle and is strengthened with another account when we read the brother of Jared's story when he trusts in the Lord's plan to build a boat, though he has no sure knowledge on how to do so. Leading us to the second question, how to obtain faith and what can we do with it. Having so much faith, not only trusting to do what the Lord wants, but taking initiative and adding his own part to the same vision by giving an idea on how to have light in the boats, allowed him to see God's finger. Testifying that miracles can and WILL procede trials of faith is one of my favorite verses in Ethere <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_715946521" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">12:12</span></span>. The entire chapter mentions the word 'faith' some 34 times (left the exact number in my other book of mormon), but that scripture in particular was noted a significant number of times within the references to the scriptures in PMG.</span></div>

In recent news, I'm really enjoying my last change here. To keep me focused, I'm taking the advice of Elder Barrientos who said 'It's ok to think about home, but only on pday.' And the results are visible. This last Sunday, Oliveria (Bella) was confirmed and is loving learning about the Gospel through her personal study and asking us and other members the questions that come up every once in a while.</div>

Meanwhile, I'm finding it very easy to apply my fùtbol talents that Heavenly Father has given me in the missionary work. This morning, for example, us four missionaries decided to take a couple hours to conquer the nearby cancha or fùtbol court. There came a group of about 6 kids between the ages of 11 and 16 to play with us in less than 20 minutes. Lots of fun. Juega bonito, joga bonito.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Just a small invitation to read Moroni 10 to find out more about your spiritual gifts. A quick read in the Gospel Principles wouldn't hurt if you want to read a little bit more in depth about the subject. Thank you for your continued prayers and efforts. Love you all!! </div>

It looks like I owe you two updates this time... Last week was a bit crazy being Elder Barrientos' last day in the mission field visiting some converts and members from past areas. Really a fun experience seeing how excited he was and the impact he had made on so many people. Of course, I still have a long way to go until I do that...</div>

The day before (Jan 8), we had an interesting baptismal service for Oliveria Garcia Hernandez. She came late due to a previously scheduled hospital service, which we were expecting. What we were not expecting was an absence of gas to heat the water and fill the baptismal font! There were doubts if we were going to be able to go through with it at that Church, or if we were going to have to postpone it until the next week. A recent convert then butted in saying he had a little tank of gas at his house. We hurried over and filled it up, running in our suits whenever we could. We didn't know, but we broke a rule hooking up that tank to the chapel boiler and started to fill the font. About <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2054008513" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">40 minutes later</span></span>, Oliveria was baptized and I was able to perform the ordinance in semi-cold water.</div>

This week, I'm with Elder Fernandez, who I actually met in Anahuac as Zone leaders in the same stake (but different zones). Really fun, hardworking missionary and he'll be excellent to work with until the end. A funny experience</div>

Ended the week without fruits, but we had our zone activity watching Finding Dory and playing fùtbol with some Tamas (even better than compechanas). An invitation that President McCarthur extended to me in my last interview, I will now extend to you. Pick an Christ like attribute from <a href="https://www.lds.org/manual/preach-my-gospel-a-guide-to-missionary-service/how-do-i-develop-christlike-attributes?lang=eng" target="_blank">Preach My Gospel (chapter 6)</a> and study every scripture at the end of the section, as well as every footnote scripture within those scriptures and then send me a report of what you learned. Mine was faith. I'll even give you all a report next week! Love you all so much!</div>

So for short time, I'll just say I love being Zone leader in Roma. I love the missionaries and the good experiences we've been having thanks to our hard work, obedience and diligence. Of course there are problems, but I feel that humility, even humbling experiences, has brought us together. We're looking to finish with the most baptisms in the entire mission as a zone. Considering Roma usually finishes with the least, it's quite the feat for our work. Thanks missionaries!!</div>

I am not intending to be selfish, but I totally forgot to post this email from Elder Allgaier last week! Look for his new update from today by tonight or tomorrow morning.</i><br />

Merry Christmas,</span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Short email, because we had a very Christmas activity filled week and I told my family a lot of what's going on. Just a short story for Ricardo Romero who was baptized yesterday!! Such a great guy who is here from Vera Cruz separated from his family, but has since found a lot of happiness in the repentance process and the importance of the family in God's plan. Elder Barrientos found him 5 weeks ago just knocking on doors and just yesterday he was also able to perform the ordinance. We're excited to see him continue to progress in the Gospel and help others as well.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Quick invitation to make some meaningful goals this week approaching new years, something that will help you to be wiser, not just older in 2017. Something spiritual, something intelectual, something social, something physical and something familiar (with the family). Love you all, happy new years!!</span></span></div>

This is the last week before Ricardo's Christmas baptism! We are really excited about getting him prepared for the ordinance, teaching him a few last things but really he has been very receptive from the beginning. The first <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1002747070" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span> I actually wasn't here when Ricardo came to Church, but he started shaking everyone's hand. He came here from Vera Cruz to find work while having some family troubles, but has since gone to visit his sons to mend some relationships. Great guy.</div>

We had our Branch Christmas party last Friday and our Mission Christmas party yesterday. At the branch party, someone found out I played the saxophone and asked me to play a few songs. Three years without touching a sax, but I've still got it. Maybe a little nervous but it was way better than the 'Baby it's cold outside' kareoke duet that Elder Barrientos sang. Whatever, we got out of our comfort zone.</div>

Just a lot of fun things these few weeks, including a pday trip to the center of Monterrey to get some souveneirs with a couple of other missionaries and the skype call this Sunday!! Can't wait to talk to you again. Before ending the update, I want to invite you all to send me a quick email about your favorite Christmas tradition. I'll even put my email address here (<a href="mailto:spencer.allgaier@myldsmail.net" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">spencer.allgaier@myldsmail.<wbr></wbr>net</a>) to make it easier for those who are reading on the blog.

I realized that I never posted this from last week. There will be two today if I hear from Elder Allgaier!)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">Hello everyone,</span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Kind of a short update because I just talked to you all this past Wednesday... I hope you are all having a great Christmas season, I am too. We had a nice Sunday yesterday being in charge of a temple tour activity, taking advantage that it is right in our area. We werent sure how many people were going to show up with such short notice, but thanks to some miracles and an institute choir performance, there was a great turnout.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="color: #222222;">We did a mission fast last Sunday praying specifically for the investigators who we are teaching. It was an opportunity for me to strengthen my testimony in the fast and there were some miracles that came from it. One being that an area in the zone has five scheduled baptisms for this coming week. Another being that a bunch of people came to the temple tour despite giving one week notice. I invite you to find something to do in order to strengthen or gain a testimony by personal experience. While doing so, read Alma 32. I promise that you will be able to have stronger knowledge of what you believe in. Merry December 12th!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Officially December and my first week in Estanzuela. Let me just say, I'm going to really enjoy my last leg of the mission. It is the area of the Monterrey Temple, but still a branch, touching a good mixture of more humble people and very prideful people. No middle ground, but that's Mexico for you. My companion is Elder Barrientos in case I didn't mention it last week who was born in Gathersburg MD! It gives us a nice common ground to have great companionship unity. He's on his last change which is why I know that this is my last area. The zone is very obedient and very animated, we're looking to have a lot of success.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
One day (<span class="aBn" data-term="goog_892964708" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Monday</span></span> to be specific) we went to help an English teacher teach a private student. We went thinking it would be an opportunity to share the gospel in our native language, but he quickly told us not to give even a hint that we were from a Church, despite the fact that he himself was baptised at the age of 16 (very less active) due to fear of offending his student. Ok... Driving in, we started to see Mercedes Benz, Audis, Classic cars, big houses when he told us, 'these are the most powerful people in Monterrey'. Very shortly into the lesson (we just had a conversation in English), the student calmly caught on that we were missionaries and asked what our beliefs were. We shared a bit about the Godhead and showed the Christmas video to see her get teary eyed. Explaining eternal families, she even became interested enough to accept a Plan of Salvation pamphlet. Leaving, she expressed that she 'needs Jesus in this moment.' Just goes to show that you should never be embarrassed to express your beliefs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
That same day, we found a drunk guy at around 12 in the afternoon who had just gotten bitten by a dog bad enough where it drew blood on a few fingers and his wrist. He was cursing at it in his wobbled pace and wanted us to teach him about John the Baptist. We decided it would be better to take him to the farmacy two blocks over instead of just leave him. <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_892964709" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">20 minutes later</span></span> we got there, met the nice doctor who didn't charge to take care of his cuts and we put our new friend Toño back on his chair in his house. Like I said, no middle ground.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

A small invitation this time, because that last experience was in response to the Christmas calendar to help the sick. I invite you all (if not already doing so) to follow the Church's Christmas calendar to serve people in 25 different ways this month. Really a special thing that is happening this year. You'll feel the Spirit of Christmas more powerfully by doing so. I promise so as a representative of Jesus Christ and His Church. Love you all, enjoy the season!</div>

First things first, I want to wish a very happy birthday to my awesome Mom! Thanks for all that you have done for our family, we love you! Ok, changes are in and I'm going to Rome stake with Elder Barrientos, being his last companion seeing that he goes home just after Christmas. Super excited to get to know my (probably) last area! It's exactly by the mission offices and the biggest city area in Monterrey, if not Latin America. I figure it'll be a good place to get some last minute souveniers.</div>

Last week we had our stake conference in Anahuac and it was fantastic. Seriously, I got a lot out of the messages that were shared. A video was shown featuring Elder Bednar who talked about the purpose of work/service in the Church. Imagine three connected circles 1. Learn 2. Do 3. Be. Elder Bednar (echoed by Stake President Tapia) said that we LEARN so that we can DO things better. But we DO things so that we can BEcome better people. More specifically, become more like Christ (see 3 Nephi 27:27) Sometimes people get disanimated because of the work that being a member of the Restored Church requires. Home teaching, studying, service, callings, etc. etc. BUT, if we really focus on the importance of WHY we study and WHY we work, it gives us a wider perspective to be able to support the load. Great talk. If you can find it, watch it!</div>

The new Christmas video finally came out to the public and it is awesome. <a href="https://www.mormon.org/christmas/light-the-world?play=hero" target="_blank">Watch it</a> too if you haven't already. We're helping you with that by putting it on youtube anyways, don't worry. But I really want to express my excitement for the worldwide service day this week. Remember the invitation before? To plan a service for <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2143849681" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">December 1st</span></span>?

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Another week down, getting close in the Christmas call countdown. Happy thanksgiving to you Americans, enjoy the turkey and as an early invitation to switch things up, go ahead and express at least one thing you are grateful for while you're all together. Tables turned!!</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
This morning we climbed the famous 'Cerro de la Silla' to get some great pictures for the post mission slide show (which I will include) and had a great time spending time together as a district. It's coming to a close of this change now and many are thinking about who is going where. I think I'll be moving next week, or at the very least have a new companion. Who knows.</div>

As far as spiritual experiences go, this week we had the opportunity to hear Pres. Valenzuela talk with us as mission leaders (of district and of zone and of sisters). I was surprised on how much emphasis was given on 1. Simple doctrine like the atonement 2. The importance of companionship unity and 3. New ways of working with members to share the gospel. Very uplifting meeting and fun to be apart of. Remember the video I recommended last week? As a double table turning second invitation, I invite you to send that video to someone you feel inspired to share it with on Facebook this Thanksgiving weekend. Let the miracles commence. Love you all, thanks for your thoughts and prayers!</div>

Hope your election week went well, because everyone made sure I remembered who I voted for by always asking me, 'Did you vote for Trump?!' I'm taking the advice of one american companion who said he decided he's from Canada from here on out to avoid looking racist. Anyways, it is finished. For important news, we had a multi-stake conference yesterday including a broadcast to all stakes in México where we listened to General Authorities Elder Benjamin de Oyos, Sister McConkie and President Nelson. I was surprised to hear that all of them spoke Spanish! Have you ever heard President Nelson speak Spanish? I have. He has a very american accent, but spoken it was.</div>

We had a great opportunity with the Branch President to be the means of three beds getting to three men who have all been sleeping on concrete floor. One of them was Inocente who was baptized a month ago, now living with his son (who is taking the missionary lessons this week) who he hasn't seen for years until just recently. The next person was a recently activated young adult who will be getting the Melchizedek Priesthood <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_340998087" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">in two weeks</span></span>, Daniel. Great guy. Jesus was our last visit who has back problems making it difficult to get up in the morning to work or go to Church, espcecially with the cold season starting up. Just a very fulfilling hour to do service.</div>

The point of telling this story is for the invitation, which almost always comes in the third paragraph.

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
Pretty relaxed week, but topped off really well with Jesus' confirmation and three new people coming to Church from our teaching pool. Jesus is scheduled, according to our branch President, to get the Melchezidek Priesthood this coming stake conference in just two weeks! It's crazy how clearly you can see the progress of the Church here.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">You are all formally invited to vote tomorrow</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">. If there's one thing I learned from my POLI 110 class at BYU it's that 20 years down the road, citizens get upset for poorly planned policies because youth don't vote! Let's all join together and change the perspective of the country from 5 years to 50 years. I voted about a month ago, you surely can too. Love you, have a great week!</span><br />

Happy halloween, which they DO celebrate here in México, but a bit differently. At least here they do, but Día de Muerto is still more popular. One day... Until then, here's a little run-down of this past week. We had a tri-zone Conference <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_538234650" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on Thursday </span></span>with Topo Chico, Anahuac and San Nicolas, all past zones I've been in so it was fun to see some new and familiar faces. Then <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_538234651" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Saturday</span></span>, we had a stake wide Family History activity. Honestly, it was probably the most well organized family history activity I've ever been to. There were areas to learn more about Indexing, Family search, Bible geneology, even one member who showed her tree up to Adam and Eve! Cool to be a part of the activity.</div>

Talking a bit about investigators, Luis recently told us he wants to serve a mission!! Elder Preciado and I have already talked about how he would be as a missionary, but now Luis has decided for himself. We're planning on taking him to a few visits these coming weeks. Jesus was baptized yesterday and it wasn't the most organized or most attended service, but it was uplifting all the same. Jesus was especially emotional in giving his testimony at the end. He's such a great guy and has a real desire to retain a remission of his sins and serve the Lord. I remember when we found him, just coming in from Tobasco and we invited him in on a lesson. He really liked it and accepted the invitation to come to Church, then General Conference, then Inocente's baptism. That is where he received his answer. Small and simple acts can lead to a great change. Inocente's son who recently arrived as well (after years without being in contact), is a new person who we're starting to teach as well.</div>

I feel very blessed to be serving in this area at this time and we had one day in particular when it seemed as if all of the pieces were falling exactly into place. It was last Friday to be exact. I could write all of the miracles that happened, but the most important part is that my testimony of obedience and diligence has been strengthened. I know that Heavenly Father loves us and blesses us when we keep his commandments. I love being a missionary. On kind of a different note, the invitation this week is to relookup your family history. Try to add some more on or at least get to know your ancestors better this coming week. Love you all and hope you have a great week!!</div>

Elder Preciado has been having some stomach problems this past week and after a few phone calls, we went over to get it checked out. The closest hospital in Monterrey that we use as missionaries because of insurance coverage is called Doctor's Hospital. It also happens to be the 8th most modern hospital in the world. You can see by some pictures we took enjoying our stay. Everything turned out well, just some colon swelling due to some bad food and Elder Preciado's sensitive stomach. Now we're back in action.</div>

From last week's email, you know that we found Lupita, a convert from one of my old areas, and her boyfriend. Well, this week they went to Church! They liked the themes that were touched in sacrament meeting, especially about self-reliance. At various times during the talks, Lupita would elboe Cesar and say 'Listen! Did you hear that part!' Inocente also brought a friend to Church named Damion. We don't even know him! All of the sudden he just shows up to Church with Inocente. How cool is that! We'll get to know him a bit more <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1778475413" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">this Wednesday</span></span>.</div>

<span style="color: #222222;">In my personal study, I've been able to do a lot of 'escundriñando' or intense studying in the BoM. Now I'm passing through Alma 33 and I really liked how the doctrine of faith was so simply and clearly described in chapter 32. I invite you all to read it as well. Love you all! Happy late birthday Dad!</span></div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Want to give a couple of late birthday wishes to Amanda Borretos and Grandma Allgaier. Love you both so much even if sometimes I forget to tell you! This last Saturday was a pretty special day for a couple of reasons. I finished being a teenager, but more exciting... We found Lupita!! She is a convert from Salinas Victoria who was confirmed my second week there and we got to know each other pretty well since. Turns out she hasn't gone to church in a while and moved in with her boyfriend (hence her moving here and finding us). Even so, she has a strong testimony, which is why she brought us to her boyfriend Cesar so that they could 'later on get married in the temple'. Awesome birthday present, thank you Lupita.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Apart from that, the missionaries talked <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1873196857" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on Sunday</span></span> touching various topics, which is always fun for us. I talked a bit about the importance of sacrificing temporal desires for eternal blessings. Then, there's a new thing that the Church is doing, at least here in México, called self-sufficiency (autosuficiencia) that helps people become more financially and spiritually independent. Great idea because there are a good number of members who are struggling with that, including all of our recent converts. I invite you to take a look at the program as well and see if you can take advantage of its ideas. To end, Gloria and Benigno have officially received the gift of the Holy Ghost. Love you all, stay active!</div>

<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="color: #222222;">Great short week, since I've wrote just 4 days ago. Lots of good experiences like the baptismal service for Benigno (Hna. Irma's Dad, the YW president) and Gloria (Luis' mom). Super spiritual and Benigno was even baptized in a chair by his grandson, Jorge! Apart from that, Inocente AND Luis were confirmed yesterday. In their blessings I noticed the part where Luis would be pivotal in bringing many to the knowledge of the gospel and Inocente would be faithful to the change he was making in his life, something he was asking for since we met him. Inocente took advantage of fast </span><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1937733654" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204 , 204 , 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #222222; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">sunday</span></span><span style="color: #222222;"> to share an awesome testimony.</span><br />
<div style="color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #222222;">
A quick story on Gloria. We found her about two months ago just knocking doors and they hesitantly let us in and explained that they had never been to a Church together. It's always fun to see how much people open up to us while we continue to teach them. She has had several spiritual experience to help her to have a deep conversion to the Gospel. One of the first was when Luis said his first prayer and cried toward the end, then went to Church on his own! Gloria has also received an answer of one of her long-time questions in Moroni 8:11-12 and felt the family friendly atmosphere in the Church very strongly which helped her a lot during her service when just her son attended from her family. But also 20 members!</div>
<div style="color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #222222;">
Benigno was found when he moved in with his daughter Irma, who is the YW president in the branch. When we asked her if we could try to teach him she replied, 'he probably isn't interested' So naturally, we took that as a yes! He accepted the baptismal invitation in the first visit even though we weren't sure if he understood much of what we were saying. Later on, talking with his family, he definately DID understand and lightened up a lot more to us as well! He even learned how to understand my american accented spanish! After the service when he was asked if he wanted to add any words of testimony, he simply replied, 'no' but his daughter did take the opportunity to express her gratitude to share that she didn't make any of the decision for him and that when they talked she asked him 'do you really want to get baptized? do you want to tell your kids?' (who are not members) and he said 'yes I want to get baptized and I don't want to tell them yet.' Irma said she was sure to face opposition at the very least because they will find out very soon. But we all know it was Benigno's choice and nobody else's.</div>

<div style="color: #222222;">
Sorry for the long update, but I really love the people Heavenly Father is letting us teach and I want to share my stories with you all. As this week's invitations I want to invite you all to join the Miles for Jonathan running challenge. I just checked and found that my pedometer isn't working so I think I'm just going to count in my head this year. For sure I'll keep my Dad in mind this month and hopefully you all will be a little less fat for accepting the challenge, 47 miles in the month of October, walking or running. Good luck! Love you all!</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Great week with General Conference to make it even sweeter. I'm writing <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_680779492" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on Wednesday</span></span> again because we went to the Temple this morning; doen't get much better than that. Really great experience going to the temple and I'm realizing a few things... 1. This is my second to last Temple trip 2. my last General Conference and 3. My last 5 months on the mission. Still with a lot left to do coming up on the last leg of the mission.</div>

During conference (in the middle of the <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_680779493" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span> sessions), we had a baptismal service with 3 investigators being baptized in the zone and one from us, Inocente! It was such a great experience hearing their testimonies at the end and how sincere they were to be faithful to the commitment they had just made with Heavenly Father. Inocente came to us by way of reference when he and his workmate went to a different ward nearby. He has always had a very sincere desire to repent and become a different person to the one he was before. I think the pictures say more than I can. Gloria was actually supposed to get baptized as well, but we had to postpone it to <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_680779494" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">next Sunday</span></span>.

Taking advantage of General Conference, I want to invite you all to send me your favorite talk and a little note saying why you liked it. I personally really liked President Uchtdorf's talk from Priesthood session talking about how we should 'find our Amulek' or maybe 'be more like Amulek' to serve others. I want to apply it in these coming months to have a more fluid relationship with my companions. Love you all, have a great week!<br />

I can't write everything that has happened this week, but something I'll start with that I forgot to write for last week was a cool testimony building experience about prayer. We went to visit an investigator named Julia who was locked out of her house without keys. We quickly talked about prayer and decided to invite her to ask for the keys in the prayer. Taking out the scripture guide where it says 'Oracion' we read that prayer is to unite our desires with those of Heavenly Father. I said 'if it is Heavenly Father's will that the keys come at this time' as I motioned with my hand and at the EXACT moment, her son came around the corner with keys in hand. Awesome. The Church is true my friends.</div>

Luis was baptised yesterday, super spiritual experience, but he was very calm through just about the whole service. He asked me to baptise him and I messed up his name the first time, but the second time he was cleansed completely from sin. At the end, his Mom, Gloria, who is set to be baptised <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1977729707" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">next Sunday</span></span> in between General Conference sessions, said the closing prayer. Before doing so, she gave a teary testimony about how happy she was for Luis making this decision on his own, even though he had never gone to any Church before. After the prayer, Luis also gave a few words and was very emotional as well. He thanked his Mom and the branch and the missionaries who brought him the gospel and said he had a whirlwind of thoughts before being baptised. A lot of bad things and a lot of good things. I think that was another answer he was waiting for.</div>

<span style="color: #222222;">I think it was especially great because Elder Preciado is going through a tough time. Without giving out too many details, he recently found out that his aunt, who practically raised him, is very sick. The best moments always come at the hardest times I suppose. Nevertheless, it has really helped us grow together as a companionship. I'm really grateful to be his companion at this time. For the invitation, I want to invite you all to invite someone to see the General Conference this weekend. We missionaries always look forward to it, especially because it is such a great chance for others to receive answers to questions they've had for a long time. It's a great way to know that Thomas S. Monson really is a Prophet of God. Help your missionaries out with this invitation. Thanks to all of you who did the PMG chapter 6 quiz, I hope you will receive even more blessings with theses sacrifices. Love you all!!</span></div>

Kimberly was confirmed yesterday!! It was super special to be a part of that experience with her and we could see her example definately made an impact on her whole family. Kind of a week with a few ups and downs, but all are kind of like that. This last week, we had a couple of really special lessons with one of our progressing investigators Luis (who was recently known as Daniel, but changed his name) who is 16 years old. He had a few doubts, but in the end took up the invitation to go through the baptismal interview. A few days later, Elder Reed (our DL) came over and asked him the six questions and he passed! It was the interview I have been the least sure about and it sounded like Luis is going through with a lot of faith. Coming back that night with his Mom finding out about the news, they embraced together in a close conversation about what was going to happen. I know she is very happy because he had never been to any church before. Maybe that was the answer he has looking for. We put the date for <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_864674166" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">next Sunday</span></span> so that they could both be there. His Mom, Gloria, plans to be baptised the following week during General Conference weekend. It should be a very special conference.</div>

On the other side, Karla and her family said that, for family troubles, they weren't going to go to Church anymore. Opposite of what should happen in that kind of situation, but not much we can do about that. I remember the words of our ward mission leader when he recommended to us that we should really focus on why our investigators need to be baptized, not just that they do so. It made us think enough to go to chapter 6 in Preach My Gospel as Elder Preciado and I decided to retake the quiz at the end to see how we were developing as missionaries. I invite you all to do the same this week. End of chapter 6, Preach my Gospel, take the quiz. Taking up our ward missionary leader's advice, the next lesson, we asked another investigator, Inocente, why he wanted to be baptized. He said he wanted to really change, to start over because of some mistakes he had made in the past. He really needs repentance.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="color: #222222;">Yesterday marks the four year mark of my Dad's passing from this life to the Spirit World and one of the blessings from that trial is the opportunity to connect on a new level with people who have gone through similar trials. However, I have also noticed that some people aren't looking for that kind of answer. Sometimes they don't want to hear about what happened to their grandma or uncle. What some people really NEED is sometimes the message of the Restoration, or in the case of Inocente, repentance and baptism. As I remember my Dad's great example, I'm also reminded of how blessed we are to have the fulness of the gospel in our lives and that this is the time to progress to become more Christ-like. Love you all, take care!!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
And goodbye to Elder Eusebio, rest in peace good friend in your house in Chiapas. New companion this week... Elder Preciado, the newest Zone leader in Topo Chico! He's actually a former jewish two year convert with one year being a missionary and ex Guadalajaran DJ. Super excited to work with him these coming weeks and we're starting off the change pretty well.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Of course not all mission experiences are super awesome, I feel like I should mention. For example, someone I taught in Salinas Victoria who was baptized faced a lot of opposition and decided not to get confirmed (making the baptism in vain basically). Remember the man with the Bulls hat we found in Colinas? Who we gave a BoM and was super excited to get back in the Church? At least WE haven't seen or heard from him since. I think every missionary has an experience like that where they don't know what happens in the end with a person with whom we have had a very spiritual encounter. I'll tell you a really good experience that illustrates WHY I continue in diligence in missionary work. Last week we ate with one of the members of the branch and her 70ish year old Dad was there to talk with us. Hard of hearing so when we talked to him about being baptized and he said yes, it wasn't such a big event. When we came back a couple of days later, we taught much more clearly and he still accepted. At that moment, her daughter, the young women's president, gave her tearful testimony that this was the right decision. They went to Church together as a family this Sunday and report on their reading in the scriptures together. How can you not want to be a missionary.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
While doing the usual Church invitations with our investigators and organizing rides, one of our progressing investigators (Gloria) told us she would rather walk with her 16 year old son (Luis). When we asked her why she replied that she enjoyed that time together because they usually talk about what is going on in their lives, questions they might have about the Church, really whatever came up in that 30 minute space. I sometimes miss having that time with my family. Inspired by her words, I invite you all to have a good quality family talk on the way to Church this week. Not exactly sure who will be involved, maybe a Mom/Daughter talk, Father/Son, Husband/Wife, Brother/Sister, could be even the whole family, but enjoy that time to prepare for the sacrament as well. Love you all and Heavenly Father loves all of us. Have a great week!</div>

Yesterday I completed my 18 month mark. I have <i>been taught</i> the gospel, <i>taught</i> the gospel, then <i>taught others</i> how to teach the gospel and even been taught how to teach others how to teach the gospel. Last Friday, I had the opportunity to visit my first area in Escobedo doing divisions with Elder Reed, one of the district leaders in Topo Chico. I can't tell you in words how rewarding it was to see some really good old faces. One of the most memorable was Brenda. For those who don't know or may have forgotten, Brenda was the first person I taught who was baptized when with my first companion Elder Velez. She hadn't been to Church soon after her baptism because her Mom had passed away in that short time. Her Dad had put a lot of fault on her making the situation even worse. Seeing her today getting ice-cream made my heart jump. We talked for a bit and repracticed her smile she had grown when we were teaching her for the first time. It was one of the best experiences of my mission. I can't wait to hear from her again.</div>

Apart from that, there were eight investigators in Church this week. EIGHT!! I feel very blessed and can't help but to thank my companion Elder Eusebio (or as one of his nametags say, Éusbio) for really enduring to the end of his mission; teaching, finding, being obedient, focused. That's where the miracles come from and he really put a great example for me. Karla and her daughter Leslie came to Church for her fourth time, preparing herself to be baptized <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_481848367" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">next Sunday</span></span>! Along with her, her Mom Marina, her sister Mary, and her brother in law Jesus. They're just all progressing very well. Kimberly was baptized Yesteday, being Elder Eusebio's last mission baptism. It was also the first performance of the Alianza Real Chior, which went pretty well. Kongrats Kimmy!</div>

Something we did yesterday in third hour was teach on how the members can contact and share the gospel to their friends, family and co-workers. Honestly, this branch WORKS and it's an honor to be apart of everything that's happening right now. We left an invitation to the Priesthood holders that I would also like to extend to you all to be more conocido (familiar) with the mission work. I invited you to read chapter 13 of Preach my Gospel and invite a friend, family member or co-worker to listen to the missionaries. I know they would be VERY excited to meet with them. I know that God loves all of His children and there are just some people that can only hear the gospel through friends and family. I hope this will be an uplifting experience for all of you. Love you all so much!!</div>

<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Yesterday, Karla, Leslie (her daughter), Mary (her sister), Jesus (Mary's husband who recently came back from Texas), Morelia (Mary and Jesus' daughter) AND Morina (Karla's Mom) all came to Church!! The whole family of six (not including three other little kids) came in a 30 minute walk all the way and had an excellent time listening to the speakers and participating in the gospel principles class. Elder Eusebio and I were very excited to pass by them on bikes. They even overcame the opposition when Morina's wheelchair broke a bit on the way (did I mention she just recovered recently from a foot injury, still walked). What a great example of diligence. They're progressing very well towards their baptismal dates on the <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_501782570" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">11 and 25 of September</span></span>, Karla especially can hardly wait.</div>

Recently, we also met a less-active family where both parents work, but the two kids (Debany, 13 and Edwin, 12) are amazing. When we talked to them a few weeks ago, they told us they were willing to go to Church as long as someone came to get them. The branch President (also awesome) volunteered to do so and they went the first week! The same <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_501782571" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span>, Debany committed to going to seminary every morning. For those who don't know, seminary is a before school scripture study class for High school aged kids and Debany gets up around 5-5:30a to do so. Just like that. She is also a great friend to another girl named Kimberly who has a baptismal date this coming week, in part because Debany has befriended her. She even reminds me a bit of my sister Kristyn. Edwin is one day going to play for the Monterrey fútbol team, look for him <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_501782572" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">in 8 years</span></span>. They're both awesome.</div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span style="color: #222222;">Not sure exactly how organized this update is, but we feel really blessed to see the success we're having. Thinking about an invitation this week, I thought about letting you all make me an invitation. My Mom actually asigned me a talk that I'm going to look at for this week, but what do you all feel that is something that I can do to continually spiritually progressing? Love you all, have a great week. 18 months this Sunday!!</span><span class="HOEnZb adL"><br /></span><br />
