Hola Mis Amigos!!!

Well this week was 100% better this week! We had so many miracles and it just makes me so thankful for Heavenly father and the blessings that he gives us!!!

So we had a baptism this week! Hermano Manuel, he came to church about 4 times and he never had time to meet with us. But one time we met with him right after church and for a straight hour and a half he just talked. We didnt say anything. So that was fun haha! But then this tuesday we were trying to get in contact with him because we hadn't talked to him for a week, but his phone is really bad and he had work we thought. But he answered us!! He wanted to meet that night, but!!!!!!! We were walking through the park in our area and he walked right past us!!! He was looking for a job because he lost his, which was good and bad.......But we talked to him then and asked him if he wanted to be baptized in 5 days. HE SAID YES!!!!! So I had the opportunity to then baptize him this saturday.

Then at his baptism the mom of Nefi (Nephi) one of our part family investigators, his whole family is members but his dad is inactive so he wont let him get baptized. But I talked to her and she said that he got permission! SO HE IS GETTING BAPTIZED!!!!! He wants to get baptized on his birthday on July 13th, the day after mine!!! I am so excited!

This week was a week full of stress, love, and work. It was the last week of the month and June had 5 weekends so that meant a bigger goal for us missionaries. So we worked so hard and it made me realize how much I need to rely on the Lord and my Heavenly father! He is always there when we need it!! We just have to ask. Just like is 3 Nephi 27: 28-29 dice en español, pidais al Padre en mi nombre  ..... pedid y recibireis, llamad y se os abrira. And in english that basically means we need to ask our heavenly father and when we ask we will recieve help. GOD WANTS US TO ASK!!!!! HE WANTS TO HELP US!!!!! God loves us, he wants to help us but we have to just be humble and ask him. 

SO now that June is over we know that we beat the record of baptisms in our mission. We had 285 baptisms in my mission! I am so proud of the missionaries here. but the real winners are the souls that came unto Christ this month! 

Other news I found out I am being transferred to a new area in Tuxtla its called Malpaso. I have really enjoyed Teran and I am sad that I am leaving right before some baptisms but I am ready for the challenge of Malpaso. Me and my new companion are opening this area which means that we are both new to this area. So we have to find all new people to teach. PRAY FOR ME!!!

Love you all and have a miracle filled week!

Elder Cheney

  Soy comida para niños Hola Mis Amigos! Sorry for not emailing this past week! But honestly its been just a normal week of missionary work. So in my area we received a new set of missionaries! So Tuxtla Chico now has Elders and Sisters!!! So we spent some time looking for a house for the sisters and then spent some time moving them in, moving a full on fridge up a tiny stairwell is not the funnest thing. But I am now prepared to go back home and help the elders quorum.  This week we have been working really hard to find new people and also keep teaching, 1. ANA- SHE IS THE BEST!! She has been one of the best investigators that I have ever had. She has read the Book of Mormon until Alma, prayed for answers and received them! Then she has come to church like for two months!!! BUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTTTTTT, is scared to be baptized. She wants to be more than sure. So we are helping her with that. Pray for her. 2. BRYAN (CHINO)- He is a 10 year old, a...
