Hey Everyone!

Well the bad news is that this week our baptims fell through. The good news is that we rescheduled for the last weekend of this month and my companion and I both feel like it was the right thing to do in this case. Other than that, the teaching has continued on as normal. We have been finding some great people and in the next change in Piquete Cue we should see 3 baptisms almost for sure.

This week in Priesthood during our lesson the teacher told a story which is a little long, but the moral was simple "If you want to be happy, be happy. Its that easy" I have thought about that a lot this week, and I have thought a lot about happiness and joy on the mission. What really brings people happiness and joy? Lately during lessons I have been focusing more on how when we live the teachings of Jesus Christ, we will find joy. The Commandments dont exist to limit our happiness. They exist becasue God knows that when we follow them we will have the most possible joy in this life. If you don't feel happy, re-evaluate what you are doing and try to fix it. Remeber "...existen los hombres para que tengan gozo." 2 Nephi 2:25. 

Love,
Elder Seibert

Hey Everyone, I hope you all had a good week. Down here in Paraguay things are going well. I am loving my new area and, and my companion Elder Castro has a ton of energy, so we are gonna kill it. It has been beyond HOT this past week, like almost 110 with humidity. But we are still out everyday trying to teach people about Jesus Christ. Maybe this will sound obvious to all of you, but I have been thinking about how important it is to share this message we have with everyone we know. The gospel of Jesus Christ and all that he did for us is so important. I am so grateful for the knowledge that I have about Jesus, about his plan for me and how I can be like him. As I try harder and harder each day to be like my Savior I can see that it is not easy. He never had it easy as long as he lived and as long as I am trying to be like him it will never get easier. I am so happy to be here in Paraguay and serving the people who live here. Love, Elder Seibert Pics: me saying goodby...
