Hello back in Cold Utah,
Well i'm going to go ahead and start this letter off with giving my loving Father a big BIRTHDAY SHOUT OUT!!! Hey, Love you Dad and hope you have a great Birthday!
So now for this week we've been out going from lesson to lesson and enjoying working together Elder Kolar and I. I think our companionship just clicks and we just get work done together and we have a great time while doing it. Thats what mission work is all about! going out and loving the work that you do and striving to become better every day! We had another week with 3 investigators in church but that 3 we were hoping to be a little more because we have some good investigators that didnt show unfortunately.. As for Alexandra who's our investigator with the fecha she's doing great and we're now putting our sights on her significant other who we still haven't been able to teach yet. but for this week we schedualed a cita with him specificaly so we're looking forward to that because a whole family in church is way more beautiful than just some.... Anyhow speaking of family's i'm so happy for Luisa's family recently! She's been getting her boys to come to church now and we're going to start teaching them and getting them ready for baptism also! Not only does she have that going on her life but she is now starting to do missionary work her self and with the missionary's! this past week she went out for her first time to help the missionary's teach a Dominican lady as a member helping! I felt like a proud father to see our new recent convert going out to preach the gospel and help the missionary's out! She's doing great right now and really liking church and the difference it has made in her life! Any how in other news this past week we came across 9 new investigators and we're hoping for a lot in church this next week, well at least more than 3... As for learning papiamento goes, its sort of slowed down because lately we've been finding a lot of Spanish speakers and talking a lot of spanish. That should change though here coming up soon because soon i'll be heading over to Curacao because my time here in Aruba is coming to an end. Yeah we only have a tourist passport so they only alow us 90 days in Aruba and after ward they have to ship us out because of laws and things. But the time they give me to stary here will start back over again at the beginning of the year so mabye i'll have a chance to come back here to Aruba... But i'm pretty sure i'll be in Curacao for Thanksgiving and also Christmas and the new year... So i'm going to get to see how it feels to party up the new year in Curacao.. I hear their pretty crazy over there but i'll let you know when i get over there. My time here in Aruba ends on the 23rd of this month so on that day i'll be on a plane going some where. Any way, i really dont want to leave this awesome little island because its really growing on me and i dont want to leave it. Even though its way hot always and all desert and you have to bike every where i love it! Any ways i hope that was a pretty good up date and you all are doing great back home!
Much love,
Elder Lopez
