What's happened with me? Well, not too much, but some stuff pretty significant.
My week ranges from Zone Conference to a lady that had a dream about us the night before to a miracle baptism (yes, I will probably use miracle baptism to describe all my baptisms).
1-Zone Conference. It was Thursday. It was awesome. For the first half, we practiced teaching to different missionaries with different situations and in different time limits. It was awesome, Elder Gomez and I rocked it. Also, President said something quite small but answered a question I had. Why Christ says that He's God when really the Father is God. He said to make sure to always distinguish God the Father and God the Son. Boom. There's my answer. He doesn't know what answered my question because he did it so smoothly. Then, we had lunch. Then we received cell phones. There are only two zones in ALL OF CENTRAL AMERICA with cell phones and I happen to be one of the two. And the other is also in Guate Central Mish. Then, President Brough talked to us. He talked to us about Angels. I will write down what exactly he said and send it in a letter-it'll have scripture references and everything. Perhaps Dad will want to use it in a talk sometime. At the end, I went up to President to say thanks and what not. But it wasn't that simple. He pulled me to the side a little. He told me that I'm doing a great job with Elder Gomez. He said, 'The Lord is going to use you in great ways these two years if you let Him. I'm going to try one more thing with you before I make you Senior Companion.' Oh boy, what's going to happen now? We have changes next week, October 30th, so we'll see what happens! I'm excited and anxious. I love the mission.
2- We went and worked one day with a Joven. We knocked on a door and a lady named Angela answered. Usually, if it's just the lady, I don't ask to enter. But this time I asked and she accepted. So we taught her and the Spirit was super strong. She told us at the end that she had a dream the night before of 3 people (not just two missionaries but also this joven) coming and sharing this message. How awesome! She had a dream that we'd come teach here!! This Joven was as excited as I was when we left. I think she'll progress once we can find her family there also. Pilas!
3-Baptism!! We baptized a guy name Lazaro Hernandez. We contacted him way back on the 7th of July. I, by my self, taught him lesson 1 in the back of a pick up truck on the way to church, while Elder Aragon sat comfortably inside the cab. It was good. We thought this Lazaro would be a miracle and be baptized in three Sundays, but he failed his baptismal interview. Then he fell off the face of the earth. We found him again about 3 weeks back and we starting being awesome again! He passed his baptismal interview and was baptized this past Sunday! I was able to see his whole miraculous process.
I love yall and I know the church is true. I pray for yall every day. That yall will read the scriptures, that yall will say your prayers, and that yall will come closer to Christ.
Keep on doing what you're doing and I'll keep on doing what I'm doing. The time will fly. I hardly have any time left out here. It goes by fast
I love yall!!

Here are the pictures from Brother Hernandez's baptism! Way to go Elder Santiago for his help in bringing another soul unto Christ!
“And now, if your joy will be great with one soul that you have brought unto me into the kingdom of my Father, how great will be your joy if you should bring many souls unto me!” (D&C 18:15–16).
