March 23, 2015

Good to get back in the swing of things this last week and just to focus on the work. I feel like I haven't written  you guys forever about life and the area. First off me and my comp are starting to get along alot better. The first couple weeks I would just let him do whatever he wanted and sleep in and what. Now I dont take it anymore hahaha and we have had some really sweet companionship inventories and now were getting alot better  and he's even waking up on time woo woo.

So I don't have many investigators to update you guys on because this week we have decided to drop every single person but Juan and john because they just weren't progressing and we can spend our time alot better than searching for people who are never home and really are not interested haha. BUT, juan and john  have made some sweet progress.   They have been in mexico city this last weekend so they didn't come to church yesterday but the last week they came to church and they really liked it. They are so funny, most investigators tell you that everything is fine and they don't have questions or doubts but with these two they tell you every little thing that is on their mind and spend the whole week thinking about really deep questions to ask us hahahha!  Needless to say we have learned to take a very smart member with us every time because sometimes we have no clue the answers.  But they are sweet and they buy us pizza every time we go there and our lessons last 3 hours because they just have so many questions. We haven't put a date yet with them for baptism because they want to know everything and then decide, but for now they are going swell

We have been working tons with inactivos in this area,   that's just a part of the spanish mission I've learned, a big part of your work is with the inactives because there are pages and pages of them haha. We have made some sweet progress with a 32 year old named Efrain and he has been coming to church and everything. He is solo and is searching for exaltation haha and he found this one girl on  a Mormon website  that he thought was the one but she was from Honduras and they never even met but she crushed his heart this week. haha but it's all good and it  probably never was going to work out.

I think I've told you guys that this ward is so old, and we have one section in our area where they all live super close  and we love visiting them because they're lonely and they like to tell us stories about everything. One's named is hermano martines and he is 85 years old and is just a fireball and has so much energy. We asked him how it is possible, and he said, if you guys want to be happy and healthy when your older you need to do three things... Sing, Laugh and Dance hahahha I thought that was pretty funny and a pretty good way to live life.

On Thursday  we had zone conference and we talked tons about anger. Because lost of missionaries get really angry. President shared  a funny scripture with us in proverbs 19 21....It is better to dwell in the wilderness that with a contentious and an angry woman.....haha I thought that was pretty funny and true. Before the mission I was sometimes kinda a little angry boy.  I have no clue why but I think I've improved alot haha 

All is well family, life is good. District leader is going great and i interviewed two people for baptism this past week so that was pretty sweet. Mom for your questions, the rainy season starts in June til October.   Right now it is the hottest time of the year and we are dying and as for my debit card i have no clue when it expires, ive never even used it so  ya haha. love you guys so much.
