8 Months!!!!



8 months in the mission! Holy crap time out here goes by so fast. 8 months ago I said by to all yaz and went to Mexico and now here we are! In a couple of months I’ll be home! I heard that the second year goes by even faster than the first and I have no idea how that could even be possible but I also feel like there is a whole lot to do out here and not enough time in the day to do it!!! 

This area is receiving blessing after blessing!! we went to an investigators house and usually it’s just and old lady and her daughter but her daughter doesn’t live there she told us that her husband pick up the book of Mormon when he got home and started reading it and then he asked her about it and she explained about us and asked if we could come over and we have not even met with them but she said that he is going to stop working Sundays to go to church! We have a date to meet with them tonight!!! I’m so pumped!!!

Also this week a couple of our investigators got baptized! They are young men and they are so excited to be in the ward but one of them will not wear a white shirt. He will go to church early and is ready to get the priesthood but really really doesn’t want to wear the white shirt! But nbd we can’t do anything about it haha but they both said that they want to serve missions! That will be awesome!!! One of them it will be like really soon because he turns 18 in January!

sorry this week I didn’t learn any new acrobatics... but I’m pretty sure my abs are trying to pop out.obvi it’s not there yet but there tryin!!! Don’t tell anyone... but ya I’m getting skinny and I feel like my body isn’t ready for it hahah but its chill.... every fat man’s dream! 


but ya everything in the mission is going great I’m just tired like all the time but just keep working until can’t work anymore and then sleep a little and be a little tired and not want to wake up but do it anyways and work even harder and learn a whole bunch and then do the things we need to and teach and walk a lot and then teach again and then be really tired but that’s the life! the missionary dream because the thing about it is you forget your tired until the day is over because you are having so much fun and then to be let by the spirit to know which door to knock and then just trying to project so much love for these people as representative of Jesus Christ. I’ll tell you what it’s worth every single minute that I’ve been out here. Even though sometimes is hard. I’ve never learned so much and been able to help people in this way. I just want you all to know I’m a very tired yet very happy Elder!!

I love you all like you know!!!

Sweet Week!!



So first of all I’m just going to say that I took my pants in today to get a couple inches taken off! Woo! And it’s going so good!! I eat so good and feel so good too!! Ok most the time I eat good... sometime I go Gandolfos and make eggs bacon with cheese and cream cheese and bimbo bread... oh sauce... its good. 

Anyways this week we will have couple of baptisms... they are a couple of teenagers that are so ready. One of them already said that he wants to go on a mission and he’s so excited for his baptism. And the members are so excited for them also! We are working hard here and it’s so nice when the members pitch in! They are starting to love us and we get invited to dinner every single day and we are always so full! Sometimes they give us dessert to take home mmmmmmmmm delicioso 

This week also the pres changed some of the rules in the mission and it has made this so much nicer and easier to be in the mission. So much less stress and I feel like these last couple of days have really been payin off. Every week in this district there is a baptism and this little town of Zacapu is the best in the mission. Everyone wants to be here! We totally got the ghetto side but its chill we will keep working hard!!


I just want you all to know that I feel so good out here and that everything is going so great!!!

I love you all!!

July 27 - This Week!!!!!



This week has been sooooo goood!!! Guys I’m learning how to do cool things!!! This last two week I learned how to do a hand stand and how to do a front and back hand spring!!! We have 30 mins of exercise every day and my comp did gym before the mish!!(He had time because he’s the oldest missionary in mission other than the old people.) He’s like almost 28 like dang. But ya it’s pretty sweet!!!

Yesterday we got some references and there was like 8 people living in the house and somebody said ya I’m 20 years old and I thought in my head I thought wow he’s old one day I’ll be 20! And then he said he was born in 95 and I thought oh shoots I was born in 96! Guys I’m finally old and I just want to be young and not have any responsibly and just live life like a champion. But what evs I guys I’ll just have to grow up. haha jk I’m not going to grow up ever! Ok I’m rambling in my head but the lesson was so awesome with them and they are going to come to church the next week!! I’m so pumped.

also we had a 17 year old kid one of our investigators go to FSY I think it’s the same as EFY but anyways he had an experience of a hand on his shoulder to comfort him during EFY and he really has a tough life so I’m glad he has made this choice. He took out all of his earrings and he had like 5 its awesome he is changing...

I had a lot of prayers answered this week and it has just been so great. 

I love you all and I hope everything is going good!!!
