well, with a, he had been going to the neighboring ward for half a year, and then they finally realized he wasnt a member. and he just happened to be in our ward boundary :) but yesterday, he brought his nephew, r who is 14 to church, so we are going to try and work with him as well. we are getting along great elder h and i. as for d and n, we didnt have success in finding them this week. this last friday, we had a mission conference with half the mission and with one of the new area presidency´s members, elder v as well as with presidente. elder v talked a lot about the atonement, and that if we want to be good missionaries, we should understand the atonement. i realized that if we could understand the atonement even a little, we would really not sin anymore, we would realize what sacrifice Jesus Christ made for us and try our best to be able to receive his forgiveness through obeying his commandments. so i have been trying to study the atonement more often. as for new fechas this week, we found a family of five and a solo dude. the family of five is awesome, they go to an evangelical church, but are looking for something more, its a mom, and her 4 daughters and 2 sons, one of which is only 6 years old. we took them to a meeting in the church thursday night, the same day we found them. they are really golden investigators. the other newbie, man, this is a story. he has been going to colinas, neighboring ward since 2005. and we set a fecha with him for this sunday. we taught all the commandments, even had the elders quorum pres come with us and become friends with him, and he never showed up to church on sunday. he was going to get baptized right afterwards. so tomorrow, on divisions, i am going to visit him with one of the zone leaders. so we shall see what happened. but other than that, nothing to report. well mom, i love you and take care!
