Mysterious Ways

Hola! This week was an awesome week. We just worked super super hard, and we are finally working all day, we haven't had down time of canceled lessons or anything like that, its awesome! We have just a ton of work to do, its pretty nice. So awesome blessing, so the other elders in our ward changed houses the other day and when they left their landlord asked them if they wanted to keep the couches and they said no because their new house has couches soooo WE GOT THEM :D I haven't had a couch since the mtc its amazing! 


We also just found this less active family who were a pretty bad situation and we showed up at their house the moment that they needed help, so that was cool! God works in mysterious ways! For example it just started pouring other day, like super super hard rain and we were heading to another lesson and this car pulled up and said hey Hermanos! Get in! So we did and they drove us to our lesson and like half way through the ride I realized they were not LDS just some nice Christians who wanted to help it was awesome! But yeah I am good, everything is going really good here.I hope you are all doing great!

New Transportation

So this was an exclente week! We are still working hard, and sometimes its difficult but I am feeling good! So funny/crazy story, so we got a reference this week of a family that wanted to take the lessons so we went over and were talking with them and they just moved here from Torreón (another city close to Saltillo) And we were talking and they told us they had already taken the lessons from a Elder who was from Saltillo, and I totally know the Elder! He left on his mission when I was in his ward! Kinda cool! Also, this week was the primary program, and it was just as enjoyable as it is back home! All the kids had matching outfits - it was sweet. And to end the week I got to ride a bike that looks like its from Nacho Libre! Yeah that was my week! Love you guys hope you are doing great!!

Breakfast with the Captain

This was an excelente week! We worked super hard. We have been looking for new people to teach all week. So far we have had little success but we are getting there. Also it has been hot! I mean the heat here in nothing compared to the rest of the mission but its been hot! Like 100 more or less. Honestly everything is going good, and normal. Today we made these freaking delicious fried sugar tortillas, it was amazing. Also in good news - this morning I found captain crunch which makes super super happy. But yeah honestly it was just a normal week. 

Funny missionary culture tip, so if you are American you just have to give your all to Spanish. You always have to be talking with members BECAUSE if you don't they make fun of your Spanish - and when they do that it's even harder to speak. This has been happening to an Elder in my ward. It's kinda funny, but also kinda sad. But so yeah when you are in Mexico you gotta speak or they will make fun of you! hahaha Okay but I hope you are super good!

Today We Climbed a Mountain

Well so this was another good week. It's really nice to be in charge and to have the opportunity to use all that I have learned in my mission and really apply it to the work. Sometimes it can be hard but is super cool. Also the sister who was baptised last week, her son is really progressing. He was praying about if the church was true and he got in a terrible car accident, like super super bad, but nothing happened to him! He and everyone else involved in the accident were completely fine, and he understood that to be his answer from god, that he really is watching us, and how much he cares. It was really cool. I am having a lot of fun here as well, today we climbed a mountain and it was really cool, we watched the sun rise and it was sweet. I hope you guys are all doing really well, I love you!
