3/14/16 letter

Hola from Yuma!
This week was pretty slow in regards to missionary work. Not a lot of
people were home and could meet with us. On Saturday, our branch did a
trip to the San Diego temple (missionaries don't get to go) (about 3
hours away) so we helped a lot of people do family history this week
so they could take family names to the temple. Irma, who got baptized
a week ago, was able to go to the temple to do baptisms and she loved
it. We also helped a lady in our branch, who was baptized a year and a
half ago, find names to go to the temple for her first time there. She
loved it as well. Also, we helped Isabel, who was baptized in
September and this was her 2nd time going to the temple, find 7 more
family names to take.

On Saturday morning, during studies, one of our investigators in the
foothills (about 20 minute drive) called us and said she is trying to
leave to Mexico for the weekend, but her car battery was dead and she
wanted to know if we knew how to jump start a car. After years of
driving the lawnmower, which always had a bad battery, I assured her
we knew how and drove to go help her. However, there were a lot more
problems than just the battery. He car was literally being held together
by scotch tape and nails, so we did the best we could, but
she finally decided it was time to buy a new car.

Stevie is doing really well. In one of his prayers at the end of a lesson,
he said, "thank you for helping me feel good during the lesson"
which was awesome because he's very soft spoken! He and his twin
sister, Heidy are planning to be baptized on the 26th.

Sorry, not a whole lot to report on this week.
Love,

Hermana Gubler
