sorry for not writing last week, i
know i know, but last week was a really busy week and couldn’t get to email!
but no need to fear because i cant spell anymore, i just noticed i feel like i
am losing my English very slowly. and just to think before the mission, i couldn't even speak it then, just imagine it in a year and a half from now.
anyways!! cheespas!! these past 2 weeks have been really busy but really fun at
the same time. i am still here in my 1st area here en Tekax, and this next
transfer will decide what my future here will be. my comp elder rogers dies
after this next transfer, so i might stay here for 2 more weeks in tekax, but
if i stay here during this next transfer, that means I will be here another 2
more transfers, and I will end up like another elder garcia (an elder who
finished last month but stay here in tekax for almost a year, 10 months) so i
guess I will see what happens, elder rogers wants to die with me. jaja. earlier
last week, we did service for a family in the branch, and we did a lot of chopping
and a lot of burning or fires. i got to climb the tree and stand on the
branches to chop it down, so i went up with my machete and trimmed it. after we
also cooked breakfast for the family and we ate with them. this week i also did
exchanges with Elder McDonald, and no he doesn't have a farm... i ask him
everyday! but i got to teach this one family with like 9 kids and they are an
amazing family. we got them to attend church this week. this week elder rogers
and i were visiting sandra but she wasnt there, and next door there was a
family building a house, so we went over and helped them, thats right, who
needs a license to build a house in mexico! but we helped him and talked to
them for a while, and asked if we could pass by their house later that night
and so we did, we taught them a little bit, because it was really late but we
talked to all of them and we got back to our house really late past curfew at
like 10:20pm, but we already repented, jaja. but now we have more
investigadores. we meet a lot with leti y her son, and she is learning really
fast and she loves the libro de Mormon and went to church the past 2 weeks and
also the women general conference broadcast thingy and loved it, she really
wants to get baptized and her date is one the 11 de abril. we are all stoked!
she also makes the best boli, which is kind of like this icee with coconut and
she gives us some. yesterday we celebrated a recent converts birthday, his name
is umberto, hes an old mayero, and is the one who i gave the priesthood to. and
we ate dinner at his sister in laws house of manela, yenni, y gracie. all us
missionaries went over there and we ate with them sang happy birthday and
climbed a tree for mangoes. the sisters gave him a tie and i gave him one of my
white shirts! oh yeah mom can you do me a favor and send me a new shirt... nahh
jk. but only if you want to. earlier this week we were eating with president y
su familia and we were talking about resurrection and that got me thinking, and
i thought of belly buttons, because when we resurrect, we are going to be in a
perfect form, so will we have belly buttons when we resurrect! philosophy! i
also found a new amazing scripture, its in 2 Nephi 9:34. okay not true, thats a
good one but not it.but its Enos 1:15, well actually the whole chapter is
really good. well im going to close here so i have time to send some fotos.
