ONE YEAR MARK!!!

Well my zone Zona Leon is victorious!! We had the great miracle of baptizing 37 children of God, which is the new all time Leon record for a month. That is more than the last 3 months combined. In February Zona Leon literally baptized 3 with 24 missionaries, and with 18 missionaries we baptized 37. Which is awesome because next p-day we get a lunch with Presidente Poncio and his wife, we will be eating some Guatemalan food!!!

Our two mottos: "Bears Beets Bautismos" and " You have only to believe if you wish to achieve."

We as zone leaders first off got blessed with some awesome missionaries, and even better District Leaders (the motor of the mission). Then we focused on breaking the mindset that Zona Leon doesn't baptize. We tried our best to be unified in our goal which was to baptize 37 people, then we worked like caballos to get 'er done. And we got 'er done! Now we are the highest zone in ALL OF NICARAGUA and one of the highest in all of Central America.

Preach My Gospel says Pride is Competitive, so I still gotta work on that!!

As a companionship we were able to baptize two kids, Hazel and her older brother Christofer. They are awesome!! Super elect, from a humble family but for their confirmation Hazel got a dress and Christofer got a white shirt and we gave him a tie! They were both super pumped and already get along famously with the youth here.

We have had a lot of success amongst the youth of Leon, mainly because they haven't fully committed to their parents or grandparents religious traditions. Very cool.

I love the simple truths of the gospel. One day this week we contacted a man who was very confused on one simple thing: God. He first said that God is a spirit without shape or form, and that he was one being, the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost, and that the Father sent the Son to do His work, and that we like God have bodies, but he has no body. but.... he contradicted himself like 20 times in 50 seconds, even though he was a devout church goer and had been forever, yet couldn't get his story straight.

Gotta love apostasy.

Speaking of which, p-day we went to a giant cathedral (IT IS HUGE) and it was cool. We went inside and looked around at all of their relics and idols and what not, very impressive, then we went on top of it and got to see the many Volcanoes that surround Leon! There are quite a few of them!! I still prefer the Temple, the temple has such a power that can echo through a family for generations without end! It has such a profound peace and when I enter I feel such a sense of belonging. I felt very off being in a Cathedral, not quite the same feeling truth be told.

Love you all.
Love,
