How it Goes in Paraguay

It's been awhile, but here is a recent update from Elder VanLeeuwen! (Sorry I have been a slacker in posting).



Wow this was a great week en la obra del Señor! Hola familia amigos y familiares. 

Hope all is going well for everyone! 
And this week has been incredible. The Lord is working miracles with my new companion and i in this area! We have been finding people this week with so much potencial to get baptized. We are finding families that are like o ya come in a share. We have had 7 people accept date for 11 de febrero. Got to keep on em progressing is the thing. I know we will have a few more baptisms this change. Okay and my new companion. He is From Honduras. So yes another latino comp! I am so stoked! haha. He speaks less english than my last companion! So i should see my español improve mucho! But spanish is getting a lot better. I feel i can understand the peple probably 85% of the time. But still learning and improving everyday.  We were able to find that guy we met in the park last week and we could teach him once this past week. He had to travel this weekend. But he still said to us again i watnt to find the true camino! He acepted a date just need to get back to teach him. I love my new comp! And we are working working working! Mucho! But i love my new comp, we get a long great! Working lots! 

And there is a part member family we are teaching and seeing milagros.  We had a really powerful lesson last night, and i don´t think anyone could deny the spirit that was present. My companion shared some powerful,and then i went and shared something  powerful .How families can be forever... The spirit was strong. It was amazing. 

Well the Lord is working miracles in Coronel Oviedo Rama 3. My companion and i have lots of plans for this branch, and we are expecting to baptize this change. I hope i can stay at least 2 changes with my new comp. haha. 
Thanks for todos! Love you all so much! The mission is blessing my life and it is something i have come to love and love! Hope you all can catch the spirit of the obra misional!

Con Amor
