Week 38
 Me and Heaton with The Cahoon's. Senior couple going home.

 Hey y'all!  By the way "you" means one person and "y'all" means two or more.  Yes this old guy that we met the other day explained that to us because, we said we weren't from here! haha!
  My week here in Memphis was a really good week.  We got a lot of work done this week, and were able to find some super cool people.  We were able to see Angelica y Enrique a few times this week as well.  As it has always been the spirit was strong as we were teaching them, and they had really good questions.  It was really cool in the middle of one of the lessons he told us that when he sees us and hears us talking he sees us as one person!  It definitely means that the spirit is testifying to them of the truth as we teach.  They weren't able to make it to church this week, but it sounds like they will be able to come to a Family home evening that we are having at a members that lives really close to them tonight.  So we are looking forward to that, and this upcoming week to contact and continue teaching the people we were able to find this week. 
  Also this week we there was a Branch party for the Branch President's Birthday.  I was able to take part of my first Pinata hitting with a bunch of Hispanics.  It was pretty sweet, and they sang this fun little song for each turn that a person hits it.  The Hispanic culture is super cool, and I love all of their fun little traditions that they have.  And of they course they have the best type of food.  I'm very grateful that I was able to be called to serve as a Spanish Speaking missionary, and learn this awesome language.  But other than that just a pretty normal missionary week!
 That's a way sweet story from Taylor Seeley's mission.  It is crazy to see the people who become members, it is sometimes the people that you would have never imagined.  I still can't believe that he is home, I swear he only left a year or so ago.  The mission is truly an amazing experience. 
  Sorry for the short email, but I hope you have an amazing week and thank you tons for the update and all of your support!  I love you tons!

Love,
