Hey yall! Everything is going good here in rainy puerto rico. It really hasnt been that bad, but it has rained pretty much everyday. Usually its not for a long time, but it is always a down poor. Its funny because most people dont even hide underneath a tree, or get an umbrella out, because by the time you do that it will be over. Everything sounds pretty good in arizona. It good to hear they finally finished the construction, and i cant wait until I will be able to go to that QT. Mom you gotta watch for kids ditching school and getting drinks there. I bet that would be a problem. Briley is one of the cutest babies I have ever seen. And I dont lie about babies. For example we saw one of the ugliest babies the other day at a members house. it looked like an alien. Oh that is something I like about lations, is that you dont lie about anything. You can call them fat to there face, and nobody gets offended. I LOVE IT! Its really funny, we go visit members, and we ask them how they are doing, and elder contreras says, oh, have you gotten fatter. Last night we were at a members house and he said that. And the wife is having a baby, so he said, "Wow you look really fat papa, Is she having the baby, or are you. And they just crack up, I love it. Its good to hear about the suns, glad to hear they are doing well, I already knew about the trade, because the CCM president, the one from AZ, is a big fan, so we would talk all the time. But, I have great news! WE HAVE A BAPTISMAL DATE! I am so excited. it was last Sunday, is it strange that it happened the same day we were fasting to baptisms? I dont know, you be the judge. But his name is Franklin. he is a way cool Dominican. I like dominicans so much. All of them are so open to talk about gospel. But yea, so it was the first lesson, we watched the resoration movie, taught him the first lesson, then asked him to be baptized, and he accepted. The date is january 24. So we will be working hard to prepare him. And also we are going to start teaching his wife, so hopefully we can get a baptismal date with her too. Also we have been teaching Luz and Abel, and they have taken so many discussions only gods knows, they have had 12 missionaries. But we have been teaching them really good lessons, and they are still hessitant. So this is our game plan. There is a missionary that just got home. And he lived with these two sometime before his mission, and they are really close. So we are bringing him with us tonight, and hopefully he will make them feel more comfortable and make them willing to be baptized. So we are going to ask them to be baptized tonight. Also that columbian family, the father isnt interested anymore, but the son is very interested, and the mom hasnt been taking the discussions, but she said the other night that she wants to start. We are going to ask the son, alvaro, to be baptized tonight, and i think we have an appointment with her tomorrow. So i will be praying hard, and if you could give us a little pray as well, then that would be great. But, i am starting to see the fruits of our labors, and it is feeling great. it is still really hard, but getting better. But I love you all so much. yea it would be great to get mail from you during the week, actually it would be awesome. And no i havent got the package yet, but i am looking forward to it greatly, i feel like a little kid on christmas. but I love you, take care, the church is true.
Love Elder hardy
