olá família. i hope everything is going well this week. my week flew by like crazy. this new area doesn´t rain at all so there is a lot of dust and dirt and from walking in the dust and sun all day i got a little sick this week but we were still able to work. our investigators are doing great. sunday morning we picked everyone up before church. ten of our invest, came to church, it was really neat. i taught the gospel principles class and right before the sacrament meeting started the president of the branch asked me to give a talk, so i had to think of waht to talk about really quick. i spoke on Testimony, and the things we have to do to grow in our testimony every day, reading the scriptures with our family, praying everyday individually and with our family and going to church as a family. i felt a little nervous beforehand but when i got up there it was like i knew everything i needed to say, pretty cool. this week we are going to Sao Luis , another city about ten hours from here. we will have conference with presidente hoggan and one of the members of the presidency of the seventy, Elder Christofferson. i am pretty excited. i´ll be sure to take pics of São luis. this week we had a split with the other miss´s. i stayed with Elder Tanuvasa, he is a big samoan from california, he reminds me of Elder Sua, big and goofy, and always joking. oh before i forget, if you can could you send me some hymns, i donpt have any cd´s with hymns and there is a member here who asked me to get some for him. he is funny he reminds me of dad, right now he is learning how to play piano, everytime we go to his house he explains how the hyms should be sung. oh and a little hymn book in english would be cool, because i am forgetting english and all the hymns. well i hope everything is going great for you guys, i miss you guys so much, can´t wait to hear from ya. hey for the next family home evening you should read 1 nephi chapter 8, and talk about how we can share ´the fruit´with others, and about what each thing in lehi´s vision means. Love Elder tafoya
