Elder VanBuskirk: Happy Mothers Day!

This week was great. First, happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there!!!!! Well we visited Fabiola y we taught about chastity y the spirit was so strong. We were all about to cry y we also taught her about the plan of happiness. She knows how to pray but she isn’t visiting church. We finished our goals for lessons with members present y other lessons y our contacts so we are happy about that. We also taught Antonio on the Plan of Salvation y he didn’t visit church. We also taught Tonita, but the same thing - no church.

But yesterday we got the news that our area is adding four more streets so we are happy about that. It is going to help out a ton. Y on Saturday we had an activity where the primary y the teenagers went out y were missionaries for a day. They visited less actives y the had their own badges. We taught them how to contact y teach the Plan of Salvation. It was a great activity. Then later on at 6, I got a phone call from my companion in the MTC, Elder Lyons. He said he is going on a different mission y he will be going home for couple months. He said they found something in his colon y they don’t know what it is so please pray for him. Thanks.

But yesterday at 6:30 here y 4:30 at home I skyped my mom y all my family. We dedicated the new house y they all had questions for me. I bore my testimony in Spanish. It was so great to see them all y say bye to Nathan. The spirit was so strong.

Well also a drunk started to teach me about different things for 30 min then 3 days later another one was teaching my companion. There are a lot of them here y they are all crazy. We don’t have any investigators progressing y we are having a hard time to finding new ones, so please pray for us y are investigators. But we hope the new part of the area will help. Love you all y thanks for the prayers y the support.

Love you Mom y happy mother day!!!!!

Adios!!!!!

‪Remember the beef jerky the ward sent me? A member wants you to send a big bag y he will repay you. The skype was great! I loved seeing you!‬ It was so nice a lot of family was there.

No, I wasn’t too homesick - the spirit was just so strong. But I’m fine. What did they all say after I skyped? The new house looks great.
