Muy buenas tardes mis amigos!! I'm really short on time this week but it's been a really good week! New things, new experiences! I'll throw in some quick bullet points from this week Two of the Champions, Elder Rohm and Elder Buer who are in their last couple weeks of the mission! -My new are is called "Los Lagos" and my two companions are Elder Moreno and Elder Buer. I'm in my training to replace Elder Buer as the new Assistant to President. This next transfer I'll be with Elder Moreno until the NEW new Assistant to President comes in to replace Elder Moreno! -Learning the behind the scene's stuff of the mission -Traveling to Martinez and Teziutlan for their Zone Conference, traveling with Presidente Villanueva, Hermana Villanueva, and Mari is so much fun!! -Divisions in Independencia before the Conference, we found a lot of people and placed 3 baptismal dates!

Hola hola! Espero que todos estén muy bien!! Well this week has been absolutely nuts! I won't talk a lot about our friends in teaching because  1. We've decided to clean out the list and stop teaching the majority of our friends because they aren't progressing. 2. I won't be teaching anyone in Americas anymore because of special transfers (I'll talk about that a little bit later!) But its been a good week, a lot of stuff to do! And I don't have too much time so I'll keep it concise! Elder Moreno Elder Buer and I with birds I do however want to talk about a cool Family Home Evening we had with a sister in our ward! This sister's name is Charity and she is an absolute reference monster! Very commonly she gives references to the missionaries, and she set up this family home evening so we could meet a few of her neighbors! It was awesome!! We stared off getting to know each other and from there we watched a Book of Mormon video! We watched 3 Nephi 17! If you

 Muy buenas tardes mis amados hermanos en la fe! This week went by super fast!! We saw a lot of miracles and I'm excited to talk briefly about some of them!! Post lesson blizzard break! So first of all I would like to talk about a few friends we've been teaching here! First let's talk about Willie. Willie has been in teaching for about 2 weeks now, and Elder Hernández told us that he hasn't been keeping his commitments. So we went one of our first days here to visit him and talk about faith, the Sabbath day, and enduring to the end! It was a great lesson! Even though we can only teach him in his candy store with a lot of people coming in and out we were able to have a very spiritual lesson! At the end of the lesson he committed to coming to church with is this Sunday and to read the Book of Mormon every day! Also he often gives us free treats from his candy store haha!! The next friend I would like to talk about is Kandice! Kandice is the daughter of an inactive member

Hola hola! Muy buenos días!! Well it's been a crazy week with a lot of things going on! We had transfers so its also been interesting adapting to my new environment! Our table during the conference in the government palace! Well first things first, we started last week in trio because the companion of another Elder finished his mission! So we were walking around like that for a few days as we waited for the transfers to come in! On Tuesday night we got home and waited anxiously for the transfers. Like I mentioned my mission President already told me he was going to transfer me so I was very excited to see where I would go and who would take my place in Independencia! At about 9:30 we got the transfer emails! I am going to Xalapa again!!! I'm going back to the same Zone I was in when I was in the offices! But I'm just going to a different ward! My new companion is named Elder Hernández, he's from a little town in Oaxaca called Mitla! He is in his last transfer so I will
