Happy Valentine’s Day.
I am really enjoying working here a lot. We had a miracle lesson with Enriqueta yesterday. We got to go on exchanges with the AP's, specifically so we could teach Enriqueta. Elder Stoneman and I got to teach her. (Elder Stoneman was my companion in the MTC. It was so much fun being able to tech a real lesson with him. The lesson was really guided by the spirit. It was actually a good thing that we were able to teach her with out my companion. He is an amazingly good teacher, but he is afraid of silence in lessons. Silence is important because the spirit speaks the loudest in times of silence. Up to this point she hadn’t been baptized because she didn't feel ready. In the lesson, the spirit helped her understand that we don’t need to understand everything before we are baptized, and that most of the "perfecting" we do in our life is supposed to be after baptism. We extended the date of the 26th for her, and committed her to pray every day that she will feel that she is ready. She is going to have her son baptize her. and she invited Elder Stoneman to the baptism.
Ceaser is also planning on being baptized on the 26th. He has been to church twice now, and he is living all of the commandments he needs to be living to be baptized. He still wants to wait till the 26th, just because he still feels tempted and wants to make sure that he is strong enough to withstand that temptation.
I have seen such great miracles in my mission. Ceasar has made a complete 180 in his life. I love missionary work, and I know that this church is the one and only true church. Watching the conversion stories of people has helped that understanding of mine increase a lot.
I love you all very much,

Rebekah recieves all her mail through the pouch system. (Which basically means you send it to Salt Lake and they send it to the mission.) It is safer and more efficient that way.

(No Envelope) Stamp and address the letter as you would an envelope and send it to:
