A picture of the dinner of Elder Segundo and I. I made a
classic American grilled cheese and he made a classic Mexican quesadilla. I
thought it was funny.

Love you all to the moon and back and then back to the moon
so that we can stay there and live on the moon.....

A picture of the cockroach I killed at 2 in the morning
today. I woke up in a fright because I felt it crawling up my leg and so I set
off on a cockroach hunt with my flashlight and can of raid. I finally found
the nasty thing after 10 minutes of silent hunting. Elder Segundo woke up to
the sound of Raid being sprayed next to his ear! HAHA

This was a roller coaster.
First off, we had our Zone meeting this week and the Zone Leaders
really concentrated on how we need to love our investigators and do this whole
mission out of love. It was what I needed because I realized that I had started
to get trapped in the very thing I set out not to get trapped in! The number’s
game. I started worrying about the numbers!!!!! What was I thinking? It really
helped me out this week to improve my teaching. I now feel like I’m teaching
how I should!
It got HOT this week! About 100 degrees here. That’s not the
most comfortable temperature in a white shirt and tie walking miles every day.
But everyone says that’s nothing because here in the mission in Mexicali it
gets up to 125!!!! The hottest place in the world! Second only to the Sahara
Desert. I can’t wait to get sent there!
We had a great experience this week. The other set of Elders
in our ward had a baptism and we had 6 investigators of our own in attendance!
One of them came up to us after the baptism crying telling us how she felt
something really powerful in her heart! The Spirit testifies of truth!
The only bummer is that of all the investigators that showed
up to the baptism.... none of them went to church!! Argh! Nobody wants to go to
church here. Oh well. We keep going forward!
This week we also learned of a few houses that burned down
near our house. So, today we got up and went to go do some service over there
for a few hours. It was a great project and we got a lot of work down. The
crazy thing is that we never even met the owners, we just showed up with the
Elder’s Quorum and started working without their knowledge. Haha I hope they
will be happily surprised.

I know that this work is real. I know that more than
anything we need to remember that these people are our brother’s and sister’s
and that without our help, they can’t live with God again. They can’t live with
their families and they can’t have the happiness that we have. I know that God
looks at our desires and our efforts, not at the results. I love this work and
will serve The Lord throughout all eternity.
