Buenas Tardes,
This week went by super
fast! Elder Treviño and I didn`t even notice it was Friday and now it`s Monday!
Anyway, this week we had Zone Conference. That was great. We basically got
told, "Good job, but why aren`t you guys working?" The Stake President
showed up and said that it was an embarrassment to missionary work that a
Stake took 20 years to be divided. Honestly, it was GREAT! I sometimes feel
that people don`t understand what they need to do when they are told in a nice
and round-about way. I think that the Zone (and me as well) will
start to understand better what it means to be a missionary in these days. We
are fulfilling prophecies of thousands of years past by Prophets of the Old
Testament! We are also fulfilling prophecies in the Book of Mormon. It`s pretty
sweet to think that I`m fulfilling a prophecy! :)
This week we were in a store
that is owned by a member. Across the street is another store owned by our ward
mission leader. So, some guy pulls up across the street on a red motorcycle
with a sombrero. The member across the street also has a red motorcycle.
So, I whistle at this guy like (whooot-wooo)..... this guy turns around
and looks at us and it was just some random guy who went to pick up something
from the store. We just started laughing!! I learned to not whistle at people,
no matter what.
Our investigators Clementina
and Nadia came to church yesterday. They are great people and are willing to
learn. We don`t have very many new people to teach this week, so we are
scrambling to get to work. Our baptisms should be for July 21. That will be
cool.

Everyone here in my district
keeps teasing me that I will be getting a call, everyone has started spreading
rumors. Guys and gals-- rumors don`t end. They`re always there, but the topics
change!

This week I read Elder
Holland`s talk from Conference- Laborers in the Vineyard. http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2012/04/the-laborers-in-the-vineyard
Read it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYogSVAZZVU
(Click to watch it!) My favorite part is the last line. Don`t delay! It`s
getting late. If that just isn`t a Spirit filled line I don`t know what is!
My friends, I love ya`ll!
Keep at it and be good.
Con amor,
Elder Hill
