HEY family how is it going. I CANT BELIEVE MICHAEL (my cousin) GETS MARRIED!!! 

Thats so awesome and also I know her haha. Im so proud of you michael. Im glad you are getting married and now i understand the importance of marriage too know haha. 

Im glad that IM an eternal family which makes me feel so happy and special to be one of the privileged to be born in the gospel. I love you guys so much. No matter how far we are we will always be together no matter what happens. This life is just a glimpse of the eternity. LIke Pablo said this life goes up like smoke and then disapates. 

The family that we were helping finally got married and they are going to be baptised this saturday and make this sacred covenent with God. This church is true and I dont have a doubt about it. 

Its sometimes hard to see when you talk to someone and they dont want to listen. I truely brings my pain and anguish in my heart but I know he will get an opportunity in the future to hear. I just hope he accepts it. Dallin and I have been writting each other a lot. Its good to know that one of my best friends is in the streets like me looking for people that are ready to come to Christ.

I invite you guys to read Alma 26. I love that chapter where God gives strength to the missionaries that are looking for souls. It even talks how they are talking on the streets and in their homes. I love also Alma 32. There is a scripture which says we should repent before the Lord humbles us. That made me think of how we need to be humble and summit ourselves to the Lord at all times. I love this gospel and whenever I start giving up I look at the picture I have of Jesus in our room.

Each day I have the opportunity to get to know him more and more. Its a feeling that I cant express only know how it feels. I know this church is true and I can put my life for my Savior. Like Jesus invites us. Take your cross and follow him.

I love you guys and sending a lot of photos for you guys. 

Till next week to the best family in the whole world.

Elder Parra. Keep pressing forward!!
