Hola

Hi family!! This was a great week! We are making some good progress with a lot of different people! S is progressing the most right now. He came to church and is living all the commandments! He believes in the Book of Mormon, but he still hasn't made the full connection of why he needs to be baptized again... but he is close! Also we have been having more contact with C again. :) We have been giving her some time again but now she is really making good progress again too. She broke up with her boyfriend and now just needs to fully commit! We met an awesome lady this week named A. She is a friend of Hermana Montecillo in our ward. She has a sound understanding and a desire to know truth! One thing that sometimes is difficult is that people are very kind but do not fully understand what we are teaching them. A lot of times they just agree with everything but don't actually commit and act. So it is always a great start when someone has good questions and shows sincere interest! We are really excited to see what happens. So far, no updates on O. We weren't able to see him, but will hopefully be seeing him tomorrow. Thank you all for the prayers, studying, and advice! On Wednesday I went on exchanges with Sister Hyland. She is so awesome! We get along really well and had a fun day. She has been out a few months more than me and is an incredible example. It was actually a good time doing English work too, although I feel like it is harder to teach in English now because certain gospel words I only use in Spanish and I couldn't remember what they were in English! Thursday we were able to go to the temple! It was so wonderful. I love the temple so much! There was a really bad snow storm later that day so we weren't able to drive which made things tricky. Overall it was a great week though!! We have some high goals for this next month of March and we are excited to work really hard to make things happen! :) Love you all! Have a great week!! Love, Hermana Pierce
