Capítulo 50 - It looked like the piñata was flying

 Well of the baptisms we had planned, we had 4 of them follow through. the baptism was awesome and we even bought some donuts for everyone that came to the baptism. The following day, Sunday, We had the confirmations too. This Sunday was AMAZING we had the 4 confirmations and a sacrament attendance of over 150 people!! Members kept coming up to Elder Alvarado and I saying "we have a great team here, you two are some of the best missionaries that this ward has seen." It honestly took us by shock, but we were very happy with how everything turned out. This ward is getting back to where it needs to be.

  This week, Elder Cuevas hit his one year mark in the mission. So a member from his ward made him a little piñata that looked like a missionary. We took that piñata home, filled it with whatever candy/packaged foods we could find. We tied it up in a way that it could move around in all sorts of directions, and it looked like the piñata was flying. It was super fun. After we all took turns, we lit it on fire, and then it looked like a flying ball of fire. It was super cool and super funny. the pictures turned out really cool too.

  We've been working as much as we can with the members here trying to get them motivated to fulfill their callings and also help us out in the missionary work. We've been starting a really good system, and everyone seems to be very excited about the work, and the other baptism we have today really shows the ward that we mean business. They weren't very excited to have 2 "office Elders" in the ward, but they've repented of their prior thoughts towards us, and we really do make a good team here.
