What a great weekend....

Dear family,
This was a great weekend. I love general conference. I am always a little sad when it comes to an end, I really could just listen and learn from the prophets of the Lord all day long.
So also we had three baptisms on Saturday! Susan and her brother Jonathon and also the son of another investigator Brian. It was really hectic, a lot of last minute changes, but was beautiful and sweet at the same time. There really is such a sweet spirit that accompanies a baptism when God´s children show him that they are willing and ready to follow him.
Oh and today was p-day. obviously. We got together with some of the Elders in our zone and went to the driving range. It was a lot of fun. They didn´t tell us we were going there until after, we just thought we were going to eat. So there we were in our skirts and there they were in jeans and t-shirts. It was a rather funny sight.
So because I went and had fun today I don´t have to much time to write sorry, I´ll try and send some pictures next week so stay tuned for that!

This week had some great ups and a few downs. I feel so blessed that we were able to help 3 of the Lord´s children come into the waters of baptism. I am so lucky to be the Lord´s instrument here in Tigre.
I am learning so much from Hermana Peña. She is a great example for me and I feel extremely lucky to be her companion. I really can feel her love for me and her concern for our investigators. So then I can really confide in her, because I know she has our best interest at heart. It is really amazing that we can get so much more done when everything we do is built on a foundation of love and appreciation.
We are both constantly trying to hear and obey the promptings of the Holy Spirit and are beginning to see more success here in Tigre.

love you all very much,
Aleta
