hay almas para guiar

 ¡Hola! It has been a very strange week for us here in Zacapoaxtla, the majority of the week was us being very sick, so it won't be a particularly long and/or thrilling ride this time, but there were definitely some good things that I'll touch on! Last week from me outside and inside the huge cathedral in Cuetzalan Inside the cathedral So like I said, we were sick for the majority of the week and weren't able to work, which was a huge bummer, I felt pretty useless. But Elder Nielson told me it would be weirder for a missionary to come here from the United States and not get super sick, than for one to come and be sick, so I suppose that gave me some comfort. Let me tell y'all the great story of how we got sick, so on Tuesday  we started our day like we normally do (study, prayer, plan breakfast) and around midday we decided to make our way over to this restaurant that we like to get tortas, we have eaten here before and can attest that the food is clean and very good.

 ¡Hola a todos! It has been an amazing week here in the land of milk and honey! We've been continuing to work hard and continuing to have a wonderful time! Easter morning baptism This week has been like the last couple, we get up very early, work hard and open our mouths to everyone we see and we get home late. I'm starting to get used to my 70+hr work weeks without pay or vacation time haha, but seriously the work has actually been fun, I love that preaching about Jesus is my job! Of course there have been a few rough days here and there though, in fact on Tuesday morning I woke up with really bad stomach pain, and I ended up spending half my day in bed and the other half running to the bathroom. It wasn't pretty but Elder Nielson and another elder went out to get me Mexican Gatorade. It was really bad but it definitely helped! And besides that the work has been treating me pretty well! If y'all remember Albert and Daisy from my last email, then you'll remember tha

  ¡Hola! This week has gone by crazy fast, Elder Nielson has been working me to the bone and I've been loving it! The Lord has been hastening his work here in our mission and we are all working hard to be instruments in his hands. To start off I want to talk about a family we have been teaching since about a week before I arrived. We will call them Albert and Daisy. I only missed a few lessons with Albert and Daisy before I got here but the faith they've showed from the beginning has been amazing to see. They listened intently in our lessons and have accepted the gospel like no one else I have seen before, they rock! Anyway at the end of P-Day last week we stopped by their house and taught them about the commandments. We usually try and teach the commandments during other lessons just as they come up, but this time we decided to have two full lessons about it. It went very well. After our lesson not only did they accept to let us help them get married but they also have a date

  ¡Hola Hola! Well my p-day changed this week so this is coming out a little later than normal, but I'm in the field and I definitely have some cool experiences to go over! So the first couple days of this transfer were mainly spent travelling and getting settled in. On Sunday night the elders in my district had to say goodbye to the hermanas for the last time at the CCM. It was honestly very sad to see them all leave, but I know they will do great things out in the field, and one of them is going to my same mission so we will be travelling together. The next day two of our elders had to leave around 2:45am so my companion and I made sure to get up and send them on their way. I only got to sleep for another hour and a half since I had to be up at 5 to say goodbye to Elder Ashton as I left the house as well, it was especially sad to leave my companion but we are in the work of the Lord, and I am confident I will see him again. So I had a nice 7 hours of travel from the time I left M
