Elder Lopez from Curacao

So this week was a good spiritual week with zone conference, which means president was in town. It went really good as we studyed some of Elder Bednar's talks. The pretty cool news with that is that Elder Bednar is coming to our mission to speak with us... but then there's a catch to it, he's going to Puerto Rico and not down here to the islands... So yeah, Elder Bednar will come to our mission but i probably wont get to meet him unfortunately. But what can you do about it is the question, nothing just take it for what it is at keep on moving forward.

In other news our man of Gold so far Marlone keeps on progressing! He was in church this sunday and i think his experience was a little better this time around. He's still on for the 30th of January but we'll see if that changes at all as we teach him the word of wisdom and chastity and tithing this week. 3 big commandments for the world now a day sadly. But i have a lot of faith in our man Marlone! Its awesome every time we go over there he's so willing to learn and reads every thing we give to him at least 2 times. As we taught him the Sabbath day last week he was really interested in how by going to church every week keeps us clean so that we can return to our Heavenly Father Clean from sin. We showed him 3 nephi 27:19-20 which talks about no unclean thing can enter into the kingdome of god and he really took it to his heart i believe. Especially becuase he asked us the question what happens if i dont go to church one week and i miss the cleaning by the sacrament and then i die the next week.... as heard his sincere question i thought to myself this guy is truely becoming converted because he wants to know everthing he must do to return to our loveing father in heaven!

sorry i have to end this early but if i dont send it now i'll run out of time!
i love you all hope your week is great!
Love elder lopez
