Aug. 25th - BACK WITH MY BROTHER!!

Holy crap Momma... hurry and write back soon so much crap has happened this week!!  First off, we had special changes. I don't know why but I guess there was some disobedience in a zone so they put me here in a new district. I was ticked at first, I hate special changes they suck.  So they introduce me to my knew comps, yeah, comps!! I'm in a trio...hahaha!  It's ballin!  Both of my comps are ballers and they are hilarious.   We also have 4 sisters in the district and last but not least............................ don't freak out...........................       FETCHIN ELDER W. .............HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!  W. is in the district and that's not all, he's in my same ward and that means we eat together almost everyday, go to church together and see each other almost everyday...Hahaha!! It's fetchin sick!! I will send you some pics that we took.  This week I'm gonna do intercambios with him its gonna be awesome.  We also are gonna have a baptism this Saturday and Sunday so Ican't complain.
Elder W.  doesn't live far, maybe like five minutes.  Elder G and Elder M are my new comps and they are awesome they make me laugh hard.  Elder R is still in Oriente.
My new ward is sick, the nicest church I have seen in Mexico so far,  it's super pretty.  The ward is awesome and we are working hard.  We found 6 new investigators, which is awesome and put tons of babtism dates.  They didnt go to church, but it's alright.   We will just teach them good this week so they go next week. But seriously,  being in the same ward as Elder W. is so awesome,  I feel like I'm with my brother all the time now.  My comps are awesome and one of them is from Guatemala.  Tell Grandpa he is from Huehuetenango,  I don't know if he knows where that is.
But yeah everything is good.  Just trying to work harder and harder everyday.  It's hard to push myself but I never get better if I don't.  I love you all so much.  I think from now on I'm just gonna write you like this because you can never trust the internet here in Mexico cuz its so slow.  It's just better if I write you a long letter like this one. 
The work is good but we are always trying to get more.  My area is still ghetto about the same as the last one, but I don't care,  I like the ugly areas cuz the people listen to you and its easier to find poeple to teach.  Everything is good in the ghetto!
But Mom,  I just want to let you know that I love you tons and make sure you keep me in your prayers.  I'm now in charge of 9 missionarys and 4 of them are girls...hahaha!!  It's gonna be a little more tough.  Love you so much Mom, make sure you tell the fam that I love them tons.  Pray for me so I can have the strength to be a good example and find more people to teach.

Love you tons mom
peace out aka adios!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't gotten your package yet, but I will ask the zone leaders to get it for me.  Elder M is my zone leader so he will hook me up.

Elder W and I with ducks that we found
(GOOD THING IT ISN'T DUCK HUNTING SEASON!!)
Yes, this is a tarantula!!

Aug. 4th - STAYING HERE WITH ELDER R.

Hey Momma,  write back soon I don't have tons of time today.  But the news is that we don't have changes.  I am staying here again with my comp (Elder R.) for another change. I am actually pretty stoked and stuff because we could have a ton of baptisms this change.  I  loved the pics,  but holy crap I don't recognize anyone but Mason M. at Bear Lake, he is huge too.   Do we have new priests in the ward?
Make sure you keep me and my investigators in your prayers,  but mainly S, L and G. And pray so we can find new ones, love you soo much and just know that I am good and having a great time.  Its so hard at times but when we help someone to change,  there is nothing that makes me more happy. I got to go right now.  Thanks for the quote.  I am actually glad I am gonna be staying here.   There is tons of work here to do and I think the Lord wants me here cuz he knows that there are people here that need me.  Make sure to tell Kyle to write me back. 
I love you so much and make sure to read and pray everyday without fail.  That's the only way we can have the spirit with us.   

Love you tons Mom and thanks for sending me another package.   Tell everyone what's up for me and love you all so much....adios!!

All the leaders in the zone of Iztapalapa

July 28th - WORKING HARD & BEING OBEDIENT!

Hey Momma, its funny when you tell me that nothing goes on and then you send me a letter longer than you have ever sent me.  Wow, Kyle looks ballin.  Man, when you send me pics of lax,  I miss it so bad. Like I always think about playing when I get back.  Tell me what you think.  Moody, KG, Wiggins and T-Sess in the basement is a classic.  I wish I could hangout with them again just to see whats going on.  The whole coke thing with the name on the front is sick and its huge here too in Mexico...except they are all Mexican names like Juan or Pedro, hahaha!!
This week went good we have been working hard with the people.  We are teaching and stuff and just trying to get S. baptized and stuff.   But we don't have much support from the ward.  I wanted to tell everyone what was good in ward counsel but I thought that wouldn't be Christ-like so I didn't.  We had the bishop with us in the lesson yesterday and we talked about how she can be baptized.  We talked about her boyfriend moving out or her and him getting married.  They told us they are gonna live seperate, but we will see if they really do what they say.  We are just trying to find more people to teach now days.  It's kinda hard but we will keep working hard and being obedient so we can see miracles.  Transfers are in a week and I think I am peacin out but we will see .
Yeah...I read about Syd's letter to Troy....Hahahaha!!! Oh my gosh,  Syd is so funny!!  Classic! Everyone knows who Sydnee Gee is...I am dead serious!
One thing that everyone needs is more patience.   It's a blessing to have Syd in our lives cuz she has all helped us with that.  I love you tons Mom make sure to send me a package with some stuff aka ties, candy and my shampoo, cuz I pull tons of hair out everyday...not kidding.   Like I shouldnt worry about it but,  I do a ton.
Make sure you keep me in my prayers and so whatever happens in this next change is whats meant to be.  I got to go make some purchases at Wal-Mart  like Nutella, bread and maybe some root beer.

Love you tons,  I got to go.   Make sure Kyle writes me a letter cuz he never writes me anything.
ADIOS!!
