December 2

I will start off with one news I got! My sister Vanessa got baptized of Saturday! What a blessing!!!!!!!!!!!!! On Sunday we had our white Sunday to finish off the month to reach our goal of 400 baptisms! I still dont know if we reached our goal but as a zone we had 38 baptisms, But on Sunday we had 25 baptism!! It was so pilas because my mission president, President Markham and his wife enjoyed us on our White Sunday and They shared their testimonies during the Baptism service!! It was so awesome to see 25 of Heavenly Father children take the first step back to him! Im so proud of my sister that she took that step too! I know that this is the true church of Christ! I am a missionary of this church and I love it, its hard work but I have joy every second of these most four months being out on a mission! The best thing I have ever pick for my life!!! If anyone wants to go on a mission, GO its the best 2 years or 18 months for the sisters! I love my area and we have changes next week and I dont want to leave my area I love it! I wont know till Monday if I will have chances but The Lord is putting me where he has people prepared for me!! Its a blessings! Como un misionero del La Iglesia De Jesucristo De Los Santos De Los Ultimos Dias, I know that Heavenly father is blessing my Family and my Converts!

I need lots of help! This Sunday is a White Sunday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you guys will send the pictures next week of the white sunday!! So a White Sunday is when all the missionaries of the zone get to take in the stake center and have a baptism! Every area in my zone of Escuintla will be baptizing! We are planing to have more then 30 baptizes this Sunday!! Im really excited for it because we have 3 baptisms for my area maybe 5 if a miricle happens!!! We are working so hard to reach our goal of 60 baptisms for our Zone and 400 for the mission before November ends! Mirciles will happen this week. My zone leaders told us to be really happy all week cause Satan will try his hardest to put us down! I know this Sunday many of Heavenly Fathers kids will make the right chose!

Sunday the 9th of Nov, we baptized a mom and her son! The names are Martha and Julio! I got the change to baptized Martha it was really cool cause I felt really great and the Spirit was strong!!! I know when  I get to baptize my mom, I will feel the same way as Martha Baptism! It was a great day!!! Something crazy happen this week!! Theres a family in my area and the dad and mom and daughter arent baptized but the two brothers are! The dad lived in Utah for 10 years and had a family there, So hes married and he cant get baptized till he gets a devories for this wife in Utah but heres the crazy thing They got married in Las Vegas and now this wife in utah got remarried with someone else without the devores. He really wants to know if his marriage with her is real or not because he wants to get married to his future wife and be baptized! Somethiing really cool about him He knows evrything about the church, hes been to conference in Salt Lake, Hes been a investagor for 7 years and He use to live by the MTC in Provo! He know how every temple looks like cause he has visited them but never went in a temple! Thats my crazy story of the week! I really hope his marriage in Vegas is not real!!!!!! I have some pictures for you guys to see of the baptisms and one of a really cool wall that I found yesterday! 
I forgot to tell you guys something really important!! I was in my first Earthquake last Thursday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was really awesome and the earthquake was a small one and it was just for 3 seconds but really small!! Dont worry Im doing great!! 

Thats all, love you guys,

This month our mission goal is 400 baptisms and guess what, We will reach this goal!! We have 3 investagors that are going to be baptized this weekend! Its really cool preparing people to come unto Christ and be in the path to our Heavenly Father, I know as a missionary its so great the feel of the Spirit When the people agree to be a member of the true Church!! The awesome thing of my area I can see 4 volcanos!! Just one of them is active and smoke comes out of it!! Its so Plias cause I have never seen a Volcano!!

October 28

I have bad news this week!! Tomorrow we have Changes and I leaving my area!! I was a little sad but I'm excited to see who is my next companion tomorrow!! Yesterday and today, I will be saying goodbye to everyone in my area Sipacate. O well time to move on!! Hopefully I dont go to a cold area. I like the coast area!! So this week Steven didnt get baptized either, we decided to drop him cause his mom does not want me to believe in this church. It made me a little mad but I know its not his time yet. The super Pilas thing that happen this week is. We found a family that we are teaching. They have no kids yet. They are not married yet. His Name is Daniel and her name is Igrrel. Daniel is married to another women and they need to go through that progress, so Daniel can get married to Igrrel! Something really cool about Daniel he was in the Guatemala Army!! He told us some crazy stories!! Igrrel is a nurse!! When both were kids they went to The Church of Jesucristo De Los Santos De Los Ultimos Dias as kid. They never got baptized tho! On Sunday they came to church, everyone welcomed them, all the members were so nice with them!! Daniel and Igrrel decided to come to church every week and they will get baptize as soon as they can get married! I hate Daniel´s job cause it starts next and  week and they work everyday for 6 months straght. He works in the factory that makes sugar. He cuts down the plaint that the sugar is made from!! Thats my week!! Next week I will have pictures of my new camponion! Love you all

Next week is Changes for us!!!!! My companion thinks he is leaving and Thats ok with me. I feel like I know the area now to well. Yesterday we had zone p day. Guess where we went!!!!!!!!!!!!! We Went to the Beach. I got to play in the sand by the Sea. Everyone in my zone got sun burnt really bad!!! HAHa I feel the pain right now. There is a sickness going around here called Chikungunya. I do not know how to say it. The great thing I havent got it and I wont get to it cause im using bug spray. So Steven hasnt got baptized yet and he is starting to lose hope about it. His mom wont sign the baptism papers. We dont know what to do anymore... We have faith he will get baptized this Sunday!!!!!!!!!!!

October 14

This last week was CRAZY. Somethings happen and some miricales happen. Sunday one of the members brought her sister to church and her name is Magdelina and her two daughters Susley and Andrea. After church we went to visit them. Magdelina told us her story. She was Cathilic before. Her husband left her and the family for another women But he has done this for many years then just comes back to her. This time he is gone for good. During the lesson She started to cry and I have no idea what to do. So I didnt do nothing haha. The great thing about it, Her and her daughters agreed to be baptized on the 26th of this month. Susely the Daughter is weird. I feel so uncomferable teaching her.  Andrea is so Pilas. She loves to read the book of Mormon. I love visiting them. Steven hasnt got baptized yet. We need a miricle to happen with him and his familly. I know that he is ready and hopefully this sunday is his baptism. We are also visiting one of our converts mom and brother. The mom is Consuelo and the brother his name is Carlos and he is 19 years old. Carlos has a girlfriend that we are teaching also her name is Victoria and she is 14 years old. They are planning to get marry...... Guatemala is a little crazy. They are doing great tho. We need them to come to church. My mission president said we need to have 400 baptisms as a mission in Novemeber. So every companionship needs to baptize at least 3 or 4 people. My area is one of the hardest in the mission but I know we will have 4 baptisms. I have faith on that and we will get our 400 baptisms for Novemeber. 

I would love if you guys can pray for my Family, Steven, Magdelina, Susely, Andrea, Consuelo, Carlos, and Victoria. They are our next bothers and sisters to come unto Christ!!!!!!! thats my week.  Love you guys all have a great week Love you guys Elder Vega
