alright well not very much time. mom i have to print your letter and
respond to more of it next week, dad and Michelle i read yours but to
answer some of your qs mom.

our place is pretty nice, comparably to other houses. hot running
water ha. i wish i had time to answer all the questions. that's really
cool that Ryan flint was here for 12 months! and that you got to get a
feel of what it is like. its not what i expected but i really like it.
i eat a lot of torias cause there easy to cook, cereal, eggs, this
chicken that's easy to cook. so i am doing fine with that mom.
so this week was one of a kind. we started the week of pretty strong,
we had a goal to find a lot more people this week so we did a lot of
tracking and we found some interested people. but i will right now
take the time to fix my last email when is said everyone listens haha,
good one. people are usually nice though , except for some haha. i have
done a lot of the talking when we track, really hard but i like it.
you have about 1 minute to try and convince someone your not crazy
and we have the truth and salvation. its frustrating when they say no
but its alright.

we have had a rough week kinda, a lot of people not home or not read
but its okay, i am learning to have faith. I'm figuring out how hard
missionary work is ha, its super hard. i guess everyone knows that but
i found it out. but needless to say i love what i am doing, i am so
privileged to be apart of the truth and help people find the truth and
the savior. we have said the words. book of Mormon about 10 million
times. its hard to make people realize what it actually is, that takes
time and work. we had one investigator named lorrena whose friends and
family have said bad stuff about us, we read with her elder tad r
callisters book of Mormon talk from conference, it was pure gold. read
it if you have a chance, i found it this week and feel  it was perfect
to share, but i didn't know with who. i have read the liahona,
conference a ton. i read the quote on the back from pres monson and i
felt this amazing feeling and knowledge about how much heavenly father
cares and that he is in charge, even of crazy Mexico. i know he loves
me and these people.

we got to go to Monterrey Thursday trough Friday for my visa stuff and
i loved it, i saw elder bowman, wieberg and haskel , my roommates for
the mtc. we just told stories for a day strait.
food wise. i eat another part of a cow, it was good and im not saying
which part but it blew my head..ha
i eat the dish that cam had on modern family that one episode, that
really spicy one
and tons of other good food.

i love it here thanks for your emails and your prayers. keep um up,
this is really hard stuff but i know that the lord is in charge and
will help me.
I'm out of time, sorry. we had to watch this like using family history
in missionary work thing.
love you all. the church is true and the savior lives, heavenly father
cares and will help all of us
