March 24, 2013: One Year Mark

I feel super bad for not writing very much these last few weeks I was pretty upset when we weren't able to write the next day even though they said we could!  But now I am writing and this week has been going great!! But as for my area I'm still in Acahualinca which is in Managua!  The district is doing great we have been baptizing and this last week we were able to baptize a family that we had!! It was a super spiritual experience and they were all so happy to be able to enter the waters!  I felt so joyful and full of happiness that I couldnt stop smiling!  lol Oh I remember the Utah weather I sometimes wish that I could be there because I sometimes get bored of the heat...  lol sometimes I get so sad wanting to be doing all these fun things with you guys... but I know that I need to be here for my Lord first and he will bring true happiness! The grand things that I've seen and all the situations that I've had have helped me to change and to become more of a man.  I never truly knew how childish I was before the mission and right now I'm still a child but I've learned so much and have grown to trust in my Savior and put all in His arms and if it's His will I follow and accept it.

Mom I couldn't even express all that I feel and how grateful for you and dad and the family for all that you have done for me and are doing just so I could be here.  I have seen the tender mercies of our Lord.  I know that He lives and that He is always there for me!  I am so grateful for your example that ALWAYS helps me to become better and for showing me the steps of the Lord that I now understand.  I now understand why I am here and I'm not confused or lost... But as I have lost I am found.  Like its promised that if we lose our life for the Lord's sake we will find it.  I know that I truly have found life and what it truly is.  I wish I could express all that I'm grateful for.  I know that the gospel is true that Christ lives and that through his stripes we are healed!  I am so very thankful for everything!! 

I hope everything is going well and that if there is anything I could do for you just let me know!  I love you guys so much!!

LOVE Elder Trujillo
