I love to see the Temple!

Buenas Familia!

Well I hope everything is going well at home! Haha Dad I remember that trip to Yosemite, it was sweet! Do you remember Aleks Tayek, " I'm going to blow this place up with my Russian nuke!" I remember that during that trip my testimony of prayer was strengthened so much! When we got lost, I was praying like crazy that we could find someone, and eventually we were able to find Brother Chang. Haha it seems like we got lost on every High Adventure trek, and through prayer we were able to make it out alive! Not to mention "My little adventure in Mexico..." haha

Well this week went well! The best part was that I got to go to the temple with like 8 of my converts! Here I attached a few photos that we took at the temple. It really is such an amazing place, and I love being able to share the Love and peace of the temple with my converts! It is such an amazing experience to see when our converts are temple worthy and are able to bless the lives of their ancestors through their temple worship.

Oh other cool thing that happened this week... we had interviews with President Wilkinson. I love interviewing with him because he really is such a Man of God. I can feel the spirit so strongly when I am with him. Well the interview was interesting because we have really had a ton of success here lately so President was asking me a lot about what I have been doing, and what is the difference between me and other missionaries in the mission. That really got me thinking. I am not better than any missionary in this mission. I think I have just worked really hard in the mission, and the Lord is blessing us for our obedience. I think that means that my wife will be very good-looking! Haha (that's the most commonly used joke in the church...) But yeah, he also made it sound like I would have changes this next week, so we'll have to see what happens! I would love to have changes, because I love getting to know a new area and having new challenges, but I am really going to miss this area because I really grew so much here in Aserri. Oh and President also made fun of me, because he asked me if I liked Aserri and I said I love it and it is by far my favorite area, and then he said, "Your favorite of the to areas you have served in haha".

Well this past Sunday was excellent because he had the confirmations of Deiver, Shirley, Jimmy and Caleb. I was blessed to be able to do all four of the confirmations. I love confirming and giving blessings in the church. It is such an amazing feeling to receive revelation and really be an instrument of the Lord to give these blessings.

Well sorry if this letter is so short. No worries Mom and Dad, I'm not sick anymore, I just have a really runny nose that's all. Well good news is that this next week I get to Skype you guys again! It will probably be Sunday at about 3p.m or 6 P.M., I'm not sure what time, but let’s just say between those hours. Let me know if you can do that, if not I can change it!

I love you all, I know that this church is true. I know that we have the fullness of the gospel here on the earth, and I know that through this gospel and our obedience to its precepts we can find peace in this life and salvation in the coming life. I love you all, and I hope and pray for the best for every one of you!

Pura Vida,

Elder Taylor
