WEEK 54: TRANSFERS, NEW COMPANION, RETURN TO SANTA CRUZ

Dear Friends and Family, 

This week has been a week of Miracles, and we have been able to do a lot of things. 

The only bad thing is that I got transferred from Tarija and I'm back here in Santa Cruz.  

My new companion is Elder Mendoza, he is from Ecuador and he is pretty cool. I have only known him for like three hours,  but I already love him. I hope that we can have some cool adventures here in Santa Cruz. 

We flew in from Tarija today at like 8:30 am and we got into Santa Cruz at like 10 am.  I said goodbye to some of my good friends like Elder Rosales, Elder Rojas, and Elder Ruiz.  I have left behind  lot of good memories in Tarija.  I hope that one day I will be able to go back!  :)
In my area, every Thursday, there is a huge market called La Cumavi, where every single missionary goes to buy cheap stuff like ties for 30 cents, shirts and shoes brand new for around seven dollars.  I'm super excited to see what is going to happen here.  The area is really small,  but I know that we are going to be baptizing like crazy!!


Scripture of the Week: 
Matthew 5: 14-16

Ye are the light of the world.  A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.  Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.  Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.  


Darkness can only exist in places where there is no light.  If there is light, there cannot be darkness.  The light in infinitely more powerful than the Darkness.  

Let it Shine!
