Well, this week was another good week.  We didn't have the baptism of Ricardo, because he went out of town...but he is going to be baptized on Sunday after conference in the stake center.  But we had a lesson with him once he got back from his trip and he said, well I talked with Allan (the counselor in the bishopric) and I just want to let you know that I'm going to get baptized on Sunday haha...so that was perfect.  Other than that we are having a few struggles with investigators coming to church, and recent converts.  Which is why we decided to start visiting the active families in our ward and leaders and teach/practice the missionary lessons with them.  It's been pretty fun....and then they can come on lessons with us and know exactly what we are going to teach.  Because the investigators and recent converts really need friends and support in the ward.  So this week we are going to try and involve the members even more.  

And on friday we had the talent show.  It was great :) Sharon (RC) and her sister and mom came and they did a tae kwon do demonstration, it was pretty cool.  They are both black belts and compete a lot.  And my companion and I did our cup song, I am a child of God.  And there were cool dances with the big mexican skirts and we ate good food.  The talent shows are always really successful, a lot of non members and less actives come.  So we got a good reference named Cynthia. She is 17 and she speaks English so she wanted to talk with us to practice.  So hopefully we can work with her more.  

Oh and today my companions little brother is flying into Mexico City airport for his mission, he is serving in Queretaro which is pretty close to here.  And the airport is super close to our area, so she got permission from the pres. to go  see her brother.  So thats exciting.  

Well, hasta luego :)
