Hola mi gente,
The time to achieve your goals is today. [<-- This is the english translation of the subject line.] Work hard now so you can receive the blessings the Lord has in store for you. I know that His timing is perfect and things will fall into place according to His will.
Esta semana:
《 Cristopher prayed and said thanks to God for ice cream. 
《 I got called Tom Cruise in the middle of an aggressive conversation. 
《 I tried meatloaf for the first time at Cornerstone, twas mid, and then after, I tried spicy Indian food. Not good. 
《 Both of my companions got addicted to fruit snack bread. 
《 As a branch we sang at a stake activity. For those of you who were here at this time last year, it was better than last year. 
[parent note: in case you are wondering, last year's "performance" was a very, very, very low bar to clear]
[parent note: in case you are wondering, last year's "performance" was a very, very, very low bar to clear]《 We got a flat tire. 
《 I got splashed with gross water by the ZL's. 
《 We attended the temple today! It has been too long, twas a good reminder of my covenants. 
The focus was announced early in this transfer, it is virtue.
We found 7/10 this week. We had 6 lessons with members participating which was amazing. Our friends are doing very well! We have one progressing, Cristopher. He is now getting baptized on the 26th. He is very very ready for the gospel and just accepted la ley de castidad [law of chastity] like a champ.
No cap - this week was hard. Probably one of the hardest on my mission, up to this point. In terms of missionary work, I would say it was an "above-average week". But mentally and emotionally it was brutal... I'm not super sure why.
I'm good now so don't worry. 
Studies were very efficient this week so you get more quotes than usual. Lo siento.
Romans 8:28
"Have faith and patience in the Savior’s timing and purposes for you."
"Patience—the ability to put our desires on hold for a time—is a precious and rare virtue."
This one hit hard.
"...fear not what man can do, for God shall be with you forever and ever."
Love y'all
Elder Stockett
