General conference and cute babies

Wed Oct 7, 2009
Hello.
Conference was fabulous wasn´t it? I especially liked the Saturday conference (that was when I got to listen in English:) I am sad because I missed Elder Holland´s talk (my favorite Apostle) because we left to buscar Ana to attend the session and arrived late. Oh well, the blessing of receiving the talks in the Ensign! I loved how much they seemed to focus on love and service. I hope we can really all live in a way that Love is our number one characeristic and what we are known for as disciples of Christ.
The families that I talked about last week, both decided to not listen to us anymore. I am sad for that. But at least they came out and told us. We have an investigator who will probably get baptized next weeked though! Her name is Ana and she has a cute little kid named Agustin. She is super nice, but sad and looking for a change! She said she feels better when she reads and prays. It´s so good.
We are also teaching Omar and Ladis. They are old and have been together like 60 years or something and are just the sweetest people ever. It will take a little longer, but I believe they will be baptized.
Also Daniela, a sister of a member in a ward nearby, told us that she knows the church is true but is scared about what her husband thinks. She is going to ask him if they can do a Family Night on Friday with us though. I hope it works out. She just had a baby about two months ago and he is the cutest little thing, his name is Joaquin. She has four boys that are just super cute. The people here are great. My guess though is that the people everywhere in the world are great, sometimes they just don´t know it, or show it.
Also Malvinas just had her baby a week ago and her name is Azul- what a gorgeous little baby! It makes me wish I could see Titus. Haha just a note on that, Titus is a book in the New Testament and I was wondering what the name in Spanish is for that, so I looked in my Spanish Bible and it´s Tito. haha it made me laugh, sorry Lauren :)
The names here are interesting- often they are the same but they change the end letter depending on whether its a girl or boy. Facunda or Facundo, Emanuel or Emanula, Ricardo or Ricarda, Agustin or Agustina, Fernanda or Fernando, Alejandro or Alejandra etc.
Anyway. The gospel is true, it is the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the way we can be happy in this life. The Book of Mormon is true, and it is SO good. I love you all.
Love Hermana Dunford
