Thanks so much for the emails everyone, I loved reading them. So this week was tough, I'm not going to lie! it was hard. But the weird thing is that now I feel good and I don't remember too well all the things from the week, I just feel good and ready for a new week. It is a blessing from the Lord, he is helping me so much.  It still was a great week and some awesome things happen that I'll explain;  this week I learned the need for absolute laser focus and to use every single second of time wisely though out the whole day. So every week I get these things called caja chicas which are are all the receipts  from the missionaries that they send in to get reimbursed, there are about 180 missionaries in the mission and they all want everything reimbursed. I'm getting faster with time and in no time I'll be able to get them done fast, hopefully.  I have to completely ignore everyone else in the offices, but what kills everything is when I have to go to the bank or buy something for the mission. Friday I went with Elder Cayetano to immigration with the new foreign missionaries, talk about a weird experience.... there were Americans..... it was so weird, I heard English, I talked to a black guy in English ha but we were there for four hours so that killed all the time I needed to get everything done. I am so grateful Heavenly Father has given me this opportunity, I really feel like after this job or after the mission I will be able to do anything!!

Okay the great stuff. we had two lessons this week with Luci. She told us she prayed and received an answer that the Book of Mormon is true!! I'm telling you there is nothing better or cooler. She is great, she has such a desire to learn more and apply and become close to God, her desire is an example to me actually. She has also a ton of questions. Saturday we had our lesson then we showed her the church and we ended up having almost a whole other lesson standing up explaining the priesthood and the temple, the gift of tongues, you name it. . She is really busy so we can only see her on the weekends. I'll keep you updated. 

Elder Bennett and I get along really well. what else.. oh I got a letter from Elder Cardenas and I saw him on Wednesday and apparently our converts are doing great, I was so happy to hear that ha, you have no idea. Wes and Em I so pumped that your gonna go to Peru. Wes thanks so much for the email. Also to Brain I loved the story. Mom I don't get the Harts or Eric's emails I would love those. Well I'm really tired but I love being a missionary. Please keep praying for me.

Is it true that Lance Armstrong got busted for doping? 

I know that this is the lords work. I know that heavenly father knows all of us perfectly.

That's all I got for ya this week, I'll compensate with a couple of pictures. Enjoy.

Okay mom I'll put in my rose, thorn, and bud, I had been ignoring that request for the last 15 emails. 

Rose. was hearing that Luci got an answer from the Holy Ghost that the Book of Mormon is true.

Thorn. stress and lack of time to get everything done.

Bud. my next package.

There ya go
