This week was pretty sweet! I don't have a lot of time, so I'll throw down the highlights!  Interview: we had Interviews this week, and they were awesome! President Day is incredible. He is so wise, and helpful. Hermana Day is also amazing! I can talk to them all day. Hna Day was saying the funnest things. I'll share her wisdom. She said,  "sometimes we make the mistake of inviting Satan in through the back door for a Coke. When we should  say get the hence, I don't have time for you!" I loved it!  We also had conference this week! I was asked 2 days before if I could give a 15 min talk on confidence. It was really fun studying that topic, I learned a lot! The conference was one of the best I have been too! We talked a lot about promises, and blessings. I really enjoyed it! Sunday was awesome as well! On Friday one of our friends from the rehabilitation center told us he got out that day, so we gave him our number because he is really interested. The only thin...

This week was a blast! Thursday we went up to Xalapa for MLC, so I got my hamburger! It tasted so good! I stayed with 2 of my best friends in the mission, so that was awesome as well! Friday was MLC, but this time it was in the House of the Days. I love cool houses, so I was in heaven the whole time! It was a really good MLC, and at the end President Day had me tell the story of how we found the family of 5. The Days are so cool! Saturday we went to an area called Tlatlauquitepec. Me and my comp were sitting down making calls as we were waiting for our next cita when this Dad looked at me, and asked me if I played Chess. Obviously I'm terrible, but I said yes. He then dropped his 11 year old kid off to play Chess with me while he went shopping. So we played Chess in the park, and the killed me! But it was fun.  Friday when I was in Xalapa my kid Elder Terrones taught our weekly 2 hour lesson by himself at the rehabilitation center. We learned that one of the guys we have been teach...

Buenas tardes todos! Thanks again for all of the birthday wishes, I really did appreciate them! Honestly this week wasn't to eventful, just kind of the missionary grind. But it was still really good!     Tuesday we had splits! I went with Elder Gallo one of my good friends, and we stayed in his area. We got lost a lot, but had a really good time! He is such a great missionary! For Lunch he took me to a really cool restaurant that had a super pretty view! Then we spent the day looking for references! It was a great time!     Wednesday we ended divisiones, and ate in a cool little city! Last time we were there, there was a really big house that we contacted for fun. They actually let us in, and we taught them a little lesson. We'll Wednesday we went back, and had another really good lesson with there family! They really like the Book of Mormon. It's a grandpa, mom, and daughter! It was a sweet!     Thursday was pretty sad at first, all of our lessons canceled...

Hey everybody, this week was packed full of miracles! Literally jammed packed! It was so incredible. And needed. It Started last Sunday when we had a devotional about faith. You have to believe in Christ, but also believe Christ. Believing Christ means Believing in what he has done for us, And the promises he has for us. Honestly I was really lacking in that until this devotional, so it was what I needed to hear. I was thinking about it a lot when President Day called me. He told me that he was praying, and felt like he needed to call me. He asked about the Zone, and if I thought the Zone understood his message. But me and God knew he called for me. It was really cool because I prayed for someone to break me out of the slump I was in. My problem was that I forgot that God's promises are true. So I started choosing to believe. As I went through the promises the Lord has for me. I came to the conclusion that I really wanted to find a family of 5. It's been my dream my whole missi...

Hey everbody, long time no see! Last week I was walking on Wednesday and totally forgot that I didn't send an email, so sorry about that. But the holidays have been super fun! I'll give you a quick double week recap.      Noche buena( Christmas eve) was pretty cool! We went and had breakfast in the morning, and then did servicio for a family that lives in a very humble situation. We also gave them extra pillows and blankets we found in the apartment. They were super grateful for what we gave them, it made me happy.      Christmas was pretty great as well! We had Lunch with an awesome family! After we played games, and had a great time!      Monday we had our Christmas party as a Zone. That was also a blast! We did secret Santa's, broke piñatas, and played Chido ball! I got a pair of brown shoes for the gift exchange! They decently were over the 200 pesos, but I am super grateful for Elder Gallo! He is such a good guy!      On W...
