Roller Coaster Week

Hey all!!!
Wow this week was just a roller coaster!!! Of awesomeness!!!! Elder Morales and I are having so much fun and we have some super awesome ideas for the area. The area that I have been working has been worked pretty hard, and our teaching pool is getting smaller and smaller. So we are moving north in our area!!! Haha that doesn't sound like much, and to be honest it isn't really, but Elder Morales and I are making it huge haha. We are so excited for the work that is going to be happening!! On Tuesday, we had a zone conference where Elder Maines of the Seventy came and spoke and blew my mind!! I love it when the Spirit gets you pumped up. I learned, or rather relearned, we can always be more obedient, more prayerful, more efficient, having more faith, planning better, setting better, clearer goals, more and better everything. That that progression depends on the diligence that we put forth. That God has designed all to experience unlimited joy, pending on the effort we put forth to receive it. Using our agency, or choosing to act and work for that joy. Diligence will bring forth joy in the fruits of our labor. Yesterday, Elder Morales confirmed Eunice Jones a member of the church and conferred the gift of the Holy Ghost and baptized Gwlyn Slaughter!! We were overjoyed!! These two are exemplary people added into the fold of God! It is so sweet to work with them and truly humbling it was to witness the love and pure faith they had in our Savior. Therein lies the joyous fruits of our labor. The humbling witness of the Holy Ghost. The testimony of truth and the love of God! So next week, Alfredo Ramirez is to be baptized!! We are excited and so is he!! I will also have the sweet opportunity to confirm Gwlyn a member of the church and the 6 missionaries are doing a musical number in sacrament haha!! I know that threw all of y'all a late breaking slider!! I am so excited!!
Alfredo is getting baptized this week! He is very excited and it should be way fun, he is getting baptized with his cousin!! My first Spanish baptism!!
Tony is a man that we just set to be baptized the 5th of December!! The Holy Ghost worked just flawlessly as his heart was softened and opened to the truth!! It was a true miracle!!
Ruben came out to church with us this week and said that he was going to come back next week! He is set to be baptized of the 21st, pending a court date for the 10th. Our prayers are with him.
Thank you all for you prayers and love!! I love you all so much!! Take care and hope all is well!!
Elder Walter
