1st Letter Home

 This week has been a little crazy I'm not going to lie. The trip here was interesting. I was the only one who flew out of Pasco.   I was a little worried about flying by myself out of Salt Lake, but don't worry there was at least 50 missionaries on my flight down to Mexico (first class was nice though). Customs and navigating the airport was so easy I was the 2nd person to get to the meeting spot for all the missionaries. I found it so easy.   They put me in charge of directing others throughout the airport. But I was OK with it because someone came and asked if I had a Spanish book of Mormon they could have, so I think it's safe to say I'm the newest missionary to give a book of Mormon away.

 Also, some random girl came up to me and asked to take a picture with me. It was super strange, but I let her.  The CCM has been really fun except spanish class is 4 hours long.  It's a little overwhelming. My companions are great, and I have 2 now. My district isn't super athletic but we are so good at basketball. Volleyball not so much (got Beat 7-1 the only game we played) don't worry I'm alive and haven't gotten sick off the food but it's a little questionable looking.   I feel great and I've been sleeping so well.  Although the bed feels like I'm sleeping on the ground with a thin pad.

Still Alive

  Hey everyone. It's been while since I've written and email.  My mom told me I needed to write an email because apparently some of you are worried about me. I was just waiting to "see if anyone cares about me." Quote from my Dad haha. I'm doing good here in La Esperanza. We put a baptism date with Valentina which is super exciting and we have been working with a few others to try and put baptism dates. Last week we had leadership counsel which was really fun.  Almost everyone there has the same amount of time in the mission as me. Also they served us ribs, potatoes, corn and a roll.  For dessert we had cheesecake. So it was a 10/10 meal. Other than that not much has happened. We've been busy teaching people and playing soccer. I have a new companion since last time I wrote.  He is from Idaho Falls.  Elder Arms I  only have 5 months left in my mission which is crazy but I'm really enjoying being here so I'm guessing they will go by pretty fast. My...

Transfers... Good bye Esperanza

  Sorry I haven't written in a while. But everything is good here. Just to catch you all up on somethings. We baptized a littles girl named Valentina 2 weeks ago. She is the most adorable girl ever. She lives with her grandma.  I also got to baptize her in a river which was soo cool because our church is still unfinished.  A couple weeks ago I got called to be the 2nd counselor in the Elders quorum since we didn't have one. Last Monday we didn't have a very relaxing p-day.  We went and helped pour concrete for the church which is about to be done being built and I got absolutely roasted and was so red.  We spent 7 hours outside working. I had my birthday 2 weeks ago which was so fun. The only bad part was I got covered with eggs and flour 2 different times. Its a tradition here.  We had interviews with President last week and while he was interviewing some missionary's went and played soccer and basketball which was fun. We got sooo sweaty and smelt so...

Las Americas and Miracles!!!

  Hey y'all how are you doing? I'm doing greater than I ever have in my mission. Last week I had to say goodbye to everyone in La Esperanza which was super sad because I love the members there and had a really fun time. Tuesday we traveled to Tegus which took 5 hours to get to transfers. But now I am in LAS AMERICAS with Elder Vasquez. This zone happens to be the zone with the temple. Our ward attends church in the church building on the temple grounds and because of that I get to go to the temple grounds like 3 times a week for activity's and church.  I've always heard that this area is a tuff area because everyone tiene plata(is rich). But I told myself the day of transfers I don't care where I go im just going to enjoy my time there and work hard.(as long as it wasn't monteray HAHA). When I got here we went and visited a ton of members and some investigators and its literally feel like Idaho falls to me, most the members are older but super sweet. I ended up ...
