Todavía no se siente real...
i feel like i had a good week.
Wednesday (my birthday) was probably the fastest day of my mission, we had interviews with the pres, and he didn't have much to say to me honestly, it was kind of funny. but i got my temple recommend renewed so that was good. but then the rest of the day we were teaching so much i had forgot it was my birthday until the night when our converts invited us to eat hamburgers with them.
Also this week, something cool, we have so much work and people to teach in the area that we got a call this week saying that they were gonna be splitting my area! so we have a new Elder here, Elder Cevallos from Ecuador. hes awesome. he reminds me of my trainer Elder Cordova. they actually knew each other back home. so that's funny. but anyways, now that we are 4 my official comp is elder Ku and elder Garrison is with elder Cevallos. but we do so many exchanges that it kinda feels like we are all each others comp. haha
we had a guy go to church yesterday who bore his testimony and invited the whole congregation to his baptism on the 23rd, also Miguel had to change his date and will be baptized on the 23rd as well.
its sad to think i wont be here for that.
Today was awesome! we went to Guatapé and climbed the Piedra del Peñon. it was cool to go back, i last went in Oct 2014 but it felt like no time at all had past when i went back.
its crazy how fast time goes.
theres not much to tell you about the rock, other than its big. but i got lotsa pics so ill try to send them ahorita.

Well, its weird to think that this is the last time ill be writing or talking to you guys until i actually see you next week.. 
i almost don't want it to be true. i am in love with my mission. i love what i do. and i will be forever grateful for having been given the opportunity to serve my Father. And even more grateful for all i have learned and been able to do. And for all the people I've met and taught and learned to love.

i know God lives. i know He loves us. and that He always will. we are not alone. we have Someone we can rely on for everything. i know that's true. and i trust Him.

Feliz cumpleaños a mi..
yup! imma be 20 this week. gross haha. there went my juventuuuud.
pero bueno, the week was good... not much to report. just super busy, lots of lessons. working hard with Miguel Angel hoping he can get baptized before i go home. did a good amount of contacting a found some awesome people who I'm praying will accept our invitations.
my convert Yiseth told me this week about when God answered her prayer and she knew the church was true. it was a cool experience, she also he her interview yesterday for her Patriarchal Blessing. AND Sebastian got the priesthood and was ordained a Teacher yesterday and he has been helping us in the lessons with Miguel Angel. i have such awesome converts :) I'm so happy for them.
but i don't wanna talk too much about them cause then ill just be sad.. haha

oh i have news! remember the giant rock we went to my first transfer? the one with the stairs in it? well we are going back next Monday!!! suupér excited but i don't know if I'm gonna be able to write.. there's a chance i will be able to next Tuesday but its not certain.... and then the Monday after that isn't my p day so i wont write either......... so there is a good chance that this could be my last letter home.....
