  Muy buenas tardes a todos!! Okay this week went really well for us! We've been working hard and seeing great results, I'm very excited to see what Independencia has instore for us here! Finally deciding to eat the Buc-ee's treat my family sent me. You'll be missed my dear friend! The word of wisdom, it's serious stuff! To start off our week, like I mentioned in my last blog post, we went to Xalaoa to go to the Mission Leadership Council (MLC)! It was awesome! We arrived at about 7pm on Monday night, and had time to go eat dinner, since we hadn't eaten up to this point! We went to a place called Oriental Wok, it's a popular Asian place in the middle of Xalapa! On Mondays and Fridays there it's two for one on all sushi rolls, so we each ordered one roll and we're able to pick a little bit from everyone, it was super good!! From there we had a little Dairy Queen dessert and headed to our house to get ready for the next day. The MLC itself was awesome!

Hola Hola!! It's been a pretty good week! It's gone by really fast! I don't have a lot of time since we're going right now to  mission leadership council ( MLC)! Garnica Perez combo Shoe shopping!! So in these transfers they finally sent me to the heat! I'm in a zone called Martinez de la torre, in the area Independencia! It's super humid here, reminds me of home haha! In this transfer I got a new assignment, I'm a Zone Leader now. It's still super new and I don't really know what I'm doing haha, next week I'll be able to give more information! But for now I know that we have MLC every month, and afterwards we have a zone council where we share what we learned to our zone so they can stay informed with the new guidance from President! We'll see how ZL treats me! Headlamp I found to read at night!! My new Companion is called Elder Pérez, he's from Queretaro, which is a state right above the state of Mexico in the center of the country!

  Buenas tardes mi amada familia y queridos amigos!! This week passed by super fast! I feel like so many things happened but it also feels like nothing has happened haha! But lets just get into the nitty-gritty!! The stick of Juda and the sick of Ephraim! The first thing, I've already mentioned on here that my companion and I have been house hunting! About 2 weeks ago we decided, after many weeks of praying and thinking, that we needed to change houses. There has been a few incidents here that have been less than comfortable for us in our little neighborhood! I probably can't go into too much detail about the events themselves, but it sufficeth me to say that we haven't felt very safe or comfortable here. So we talked with our housing coordinator and he gave us the go-ahead to find a new house ASAP! The houses we saw last week were okay, but they weren't exactly what we were looking for, especially for the prices he was throwing at us, so we have been keeping up the sea
