Hi Guys!!

Hi guys!

This week has been great, last Sunday the Pineda family attended the Sunday meetings, they are incredible, one of the reasons why I feel very happy ...😍

Yesterday we went to Panajachel, and we had a great time ... how are you? We are two days from the end of February and when they ask me when I return home I will have to answer "Next month" hahaha 

It was a bit difficult to adapt to my new area, but now I am starting to see it much better, we have an incredible missionary leader and very collaborative like the rest of the local leaders ... A little over a year ago I thought I would have a failed mission !, then, sometimes it seemed mission impossible! The good news is that we can say "mission accomplished"!😎

Do you like horror movies? of action ?, I love cinema! which has been the best movies that have come out a year ago, which is the one that they like the most !, I'll have to catch up on my return home hahaha🎬😎

On Wednesday of the other week we will see Elder Quentin L. Cook, that has me very excited! I've seen him several times, but I know there's always something new to learn ...

Have an excellent week, have fun! until next time!😉

Thank you all for your support, thank you Darling family for your great friendship, I love you very much, and I hope to see you all soon!❤

Hi! Happy Week!

Darling Family,

I had changes a week ago now I am assigned to the El Tejar ward of the province of Chimaltenango and the Sumpango branch of the Sacatepequez province.

Brother Rob, good luck with all your occupations, Texas is very warm, good luck with that too ...😎

This weekend was good, we had a week in opening area and we have found more people to teach. Yesterday we met with the Pineda family (family of 4) from Tejar to teach them the plan of Salvation, which they understood very well ...

At the end of the lesson we asked Katherine the 10-year-old daughter for the last prayer, she was doing it and for some reason she was speechless, after a short lapse of time Daniel (the dad) began to help him; Although I have witnessed similar situations, yesterday was a fantastic moment, the spirit could feel, seeing and hearing a father teaching his daughter how to address his creator, it was a moment in him that I thought I would have had the opportunity to This girl has her father teach her the path to follow, like the hymn. Although later, I thought that it is part of life to learn and discover sometimes by oneself the path that brings us closer to the Savior ...

Dalton, I'm sorry about your teeth😷🤕 , I hope this is better ... Congratulations to Simon for launching the new shower hahaha 👍

Sister Erin, yes, we will keep in touch when I return home, I hope you have an excellent week!

With love,❤

Elder Díaz

I Have a New Toy :)

Hello! How are you doing?
This week we felt bad because we did not have any investigator in the chapel, we went through our investigators and most of them hid or did not open the door, that was very sad for me. On the other hand, we took a month teaching English at the Rodeo on Saturdays, as a result of that we managed to activate a family of two people, it was gratifying on that side to see that hno. Ricardo and hna. Teresa was able to attend after a long time ... they started attending English classes, last Saturday we showed them that it is more important that they attend the Sacramental meeting than the English classes, they understood that part.

I also received a good gift from the González family, I always looked for Masha and finally, they gave me a gift ... hahaha
I have a new toy, that makes me happy, before the misón my best moments were spent watching Masha and the Bear, a Russian fable.

For those who love God, all things work together for good, that is, for those who according to their purpose are called (Romans 8:28), this was a scripture that I found in one of my Christmas letters two years ago. years and finally I could understand the meaning ...
No matter how many difficulties we have in this life, everything will be a matter of learning and for our good!

I hope you have an excellent week, 
Until next time!

Hello People!

Hello! all good? How are you doing with everything?
This week was good! is incredible! On Saturday I had 15 students in my English class and every time people are more encouraged to attend, even if it seems crazy! I had 12 women and 3 men in my class, all of different ages ... I do not know what happens with that ...
On Sunday, after a long time brother Angel was able to attend after more than 3 years of being inactive because of a negative comment from another member, to our surprise in the afternoon when visiting him and his family they were busy lining notebooks for their children , we helped them, after that Sister Marissol told us that her youngest daughter had not been baptized and that if it were possible for her to prepare for her baptism, Viviana (the daughter) will be baptized on February 14, since on this date Brother Angel celebrates his years of joining the church ... Sister Marissol told us that she did not dare to confide her daughter months ago to other missionaries because they wanted her father to baptize her, it is wonderful to see that by disinterested service Lord puts people on the road so they can fulfill their covenants ..
Brother Rob, you are a very good builder! and I think it has good taste! hahaha, good job!


Sister Erin will be a pleasure for me to visit you in Washington after the mission, it's crazy since I do not know what my life will be when the mission is over, when I returned for the first time it was different since I was sick and I knew it was only for a while now it will be definitive and I will have to go on other things, maybe the change and my adaptation will be different now; there's still a long time to think about that ...


Tomorrow I am 4 years since I joined the Church, this simple and important decision at the same time completely changed my life, I learned long ago that "It is good to be important but it is more important to be good", This is true, join the Church my life changed completely and now my way of seeing life is with more hope and light ... I know that these things are true and that when we are at the service of others we are only at the service of our God .. .


I love you Darling family, thank you very much for all your support! you are incredible!

P.S. This week I had several e-mails sorry not to write much ... hahaha

Hello! All good?

This week I had a great time, I attended the Rodeo group and the attendance improved significantly, I am trying to practice my English and we are teaching on Saturdays; it's not going so bad because being the second class I had 5 students hahaha
Today I had an interview with the mission president and he reminded me that I have 3 months of missionary service, time goes by very fast; I do not even want to think about what I will do after the mission, I would like this to be longer hahaha


Last Wednesday we had a multi-zone conference, I was able to greet Elder Whelan; I also sang along with Elder Peacock and Elder Davis "Joseph Smith’s First Prayer", Sister Cluff liked me very much, she came to tell me that we did very well after the meeting, President congratulated me for that today and I made a comment that It makes me feel very happy ...

"Useless wisdom only differs from the foolishness in that it gives much more work."

"A shared joy is transformed into double joy, a shared sorrow, in half grief"

My friend shared these Swedish proverbs, I like them a lot; and my goal this week is to put them into practice. In fact yesterday I cooked a Chocolate Cake with Orange for the Family Reyes and for the Familia Lobo, in total they were two hahaha cakes it was funny I missed cooking hahaha The best of all is that they enjoyed it a lot. I do not know why? but I still have some Christmas money left! I think I'll keep buying more candy the next few days, I love the sweets! By the way, hno. Rob Thanks for your advice, congratulations on the new shower! good job! I think I can never do something like that, I'm very bad at building, it's easier for me to destroy! hahaha
I hope you have an excellent week!

The Sweet Life!

I am so happy that the Lord has given me the opportunity to be a missionary today, I am celebrating 21 months of service to bring people to the true and restored gospel of Jesus Christ.
Congratulations to Dalton for this calling, I'm glad that the guys are having a great time... Thank you sister Erin for the recipe, I'll try to do it!
Brother Rob, that's crazy! I never thought that President Monson was going to die while I was serving a mission, although I could never meet him in person, I can say that he was a prophet of God, I love it when he taught that we do not have to be Presidents of the Church, to identify the needs of the the rest.
Perhaps one of the moments in which he paid close attention to President Monson was when he quoted one of my favorite phrases: "Those who do not know how to manifest their love, do not love" (William Shakespeare)
You are a great family! with very good appeals, while they were at home; almost always I was secretary! that's crazy! my first call was secretary of young men, then secretary of the neighborhood and finally secretary of quorum of Elderes.
Yes, I read the biography of Martin Luter King Jr. He was an admirable person and a great warrior of life! Its use is very interesting and it seems very funny ... hahaha
I firmly believe that we do not belong to any religious social club, we belong to the Church of the Savior Jesus Christ, at some point in my life I wanted to leave everything aside, even the Church ... One of my friends asked me a great question that made me think ... If you leave the Church, where will you go? Then, I regressed that there is no other true church and that I had nowhere to go! At that time, I understood the scripture of Romans that says: "For those who love the Lord, all things will work for their good."
I love the banner of the truth spoken by the Prophet Joseph Smith, it is something that I had to learn by heart in my other mission, I try to apply it often in my life and in my mission.
I've been buying candy and lots of goodies with Christmas money! "The sweet life! Hahaha
Yesterday we went to the Pacaya Volcano and it was very fun! we had a great time, we were there as a prayer and it was very good, this was the fourth time I went up to that volcano and every time I did I could appreciate many of the wonders that only our God could create, being there I could understand that no matter where we are, it will always be possible to feel the peace and love that only Christ gives!

with love,
Elder Díaz

These are some sweets and drinks that I bought with Christmas money. And a speaker too hahaha
