This week was full of milagros (forgot this word in English sorry)  here in Tezopquipan.  But I want to focus on one of them today.

We had a baptism of a family of 4.  family Gutierrez, Mario, Tania, Lizette, y Linda.  The first time this ward has seen a baptism of an entire family but it was really special for me.  This family has been being taught by the missionaries for over 2 years and have seen so many different missionaries but never wanted to progress. My first lesson with them Mario the dad said he doesn't believe in God, only Satan because he has had a lot of trials in his life and i mean a lot, So we left this lesson really discouraged our second lesson I felt impressed to share my life experience with him.  From moving schools during my sophomore year, to having my teammate commit suicide.  I even told him about losing a state championship in soccer ha ha.  But I told him my whole life story and how the gospel has helped shape me to become who I am today.  and how my faith and hope in god and Jesus Christ have helped me have joy when I am discouraged.  that Sunday he assisted church for the first time with us and him family.  We also helped them with a knowledge about family history work and how he can preform the ordnance for his family after his baptism which really helped him a lot.  We've had sooo many ups and down s with this family but we were able to baptize them and it was one of the most spiritual experiences I've had during my 4 months in the mission. 

They also bought us these shirts that say Tlaxcala Mexico with an Aztec sun on front.  I'm going to have them all sign it and have it forever as a memory of this family.  they are literally so precious for me.  Also they listen to 80's American music so we jam out all the time ha ha.

Also we road a hour to a convi today to go to MacDonalds and it was so good .  i miss American food.

Congrats to my cousin Zac who finishes his mission this week go kill it in the real world.
