Hola todos, saludos! This week has been pretty good, super fast but good. Last week we went to McDonalds with a member and it was pretty cool, also my comp was super sick that day so for English Class I took our roommate and it was a huge class. Then the next day I woke up super dead but then by lunch I felt great. But have had some crazy days of just Teaching or driving,  did exchanges with some other spanish elders as well. It was fun I led out with Elder Glenn, also saw my son Elder ValverdeCasares. It was great, then was a little burnt out ok Friday but pressed forward and had an awesome soccer night.  Then Saturday was pretty chill, ate some pollo con tajado which was so good. Then were teaching driving, more teaching and all that which was fine. Then no friends came to church this sunday but we had our 4 recent converts come and like 4 returning members.

Buenas a todos, feliz year!  This week was pretty good, we have been finding and teaching lots of inactive members that dont know much about the gospel but they are still pretty cool. Had a mission all call fo New years eve and it was good, sharing different miracles and reflecting on last year. I was here in Portland everyday of 2024 which is crazy to think about, time flies.  But it was a good week, had our Book of Mormon night and it was pretty good, read Alma 5. Great chapter, we have had a pretty packed week, full of lessons and whatnot.  Also did an exchange with some other spanish elders and was able to see my son, Elder Valverde Casares for a little bit. It was awesome!  Very fruitful week and yeah soccer night was awesome on friday and yeah just packed days of Teaching or driving and trying to make time to knock doors. But yeah, definetly have noticed the help of God as I have been more exactly obedient and not giving in at all. Pretty fuego! But yeah happy ...
