Hey family, everything is going good here in Rosarito.  This week was good, we did have the baptism of Sandra. She got married with Luis on Wednesday in the morning and got baptized on Wednesday night, I'll send some pictures.   Besides that it's just been a normal week, some cool experiences mom is that we are teaching an American guy that we found, his name is DJ, he's really cool, and he has gone a few times now to the church.  The other day I was humbled when a member less active asked us to go to their house to give a blessing to her little sister, she is about 5 years old and she has down syndrome.  She wanted me to bless her so she will be able to learn to talk, it's a family of about 8 and they live in an old little camper trailer.  It was a humbling experience to see the living conditions of the people and to see the trials that they are experiencing.   These people will receive their reward some day. We had kind of a funny experience this week.  We were walking down the street and we saw a lady digging a hole so we offered to help her, and I started digging the hole and asked her why she was digging a hole and she said to bury her dog haha so we helped her bury her dog and contacted her.  Anyways we've been working hard to contact 10 people every day and we are seeing some results from that.  My trainee is doing better I think, I don't think he wants to go home anymore, I hope not...  anyways thanks for everything fam, have a great week.
