New Area, new ward.

Everyone,
Hey guys! This week was really good. Crazy. First week in a new area so I learned a ton. I really like my comp though. He’s actually not from the DF (distrito federal) but just from the state of mexico. He’s pretty cool. Kind of outspoken haha but I like him. He teaches me a lot and we work good together. He doesn’t speak much English at all and we always talk Spanish to each other but I think it’s helped me a lot to learn Spanish. 

I also had my first day in church here in my new ward yesterday! It’s pretty cool to be in a full ward instead of just a little branch. We have a pretty good assistance and a ward mission leader!! I love it. We get to go out with a member almost every day and its sooo much more effective to teach a lesson with a member. There’s still a lot of less actives but that’s how it is. It’s really cool though and I love it. 

I’m still getting to know a ton more people but I’m probably going to stay here after I kill my comp (send him home) and I might even train, who knows. It’s going to be good though. Kind of weird being still in Cuautla but I like it. It’s one less thing to learn since I’m in the same city. 

We went to Sam´s club today and it was really cool. There’s a lot of stuff and it’s almost just like Costco but everything was in bulk and I didn’t really want that... Walmart is better. But I did find some good candies in bulk :). 

This week will be cool. We are going to have our Mission Christmas devo conference and that will be way cool. It’s going to be Saturday and we are doing a skit about Moroni and Pahoran when they were writing back and forth. I play a lot of parts in it because I’m tall haha. It’s gonna be cool. Also we are going to do a White elephant gift exchange so that will be cool. I’m having a guy in the ward print this cool Mormon shirt. 

Well I love you guys all so much!! I appreciate the support and everything and I really feel the love. Have a great week!!
