August 2nd
I'm doing really good
I got your dounuts and I love how you take a bite out of one before sending it
to me. MY compaions think that it's really weird but I just laugh and eat it
anyway. I'm so excited to go to Mexico on Monday! We didn't get our visas
until yesterday so that was pretty stressful. but I got it!!!!!!!!!!!! When we
went to the consolet yesterday I was the travel leader and I will also be the
travel leader on monday. there was a guy on our way back that had asked us
if we were the missionaries I was in the middle of the group of 10 so that I
could watch everyone. so this guys name is scott. Scott only had a pair of
pants on and had cuts up and down his body. this is how the story goes:
Scott yelled: "ARE YOU GUYS THE MISSIONARIES?"
I ran up to him before anyone could talk to him.
Tean: "Yes, we are what can we help you with sir?"
Scott: "Can you guys give me a priesthood blessing?"
now before I could say no 2 missionaries said yes.
Tean: "Ok, we will give you a blessing but can we go to a more private place?"
Scott: "I know where to go. Maria (his imaganry wife) Maria come see this the Jesus people are going to cast the devil out of me."
Puts his arm around his imaganary wife and and takes us to a little alley way. When we walking with scott I pulled the missionaries aside and said
Tean: "Elders, something does not feel right about give Scott a blessing. so let's just say a prayer with him."
The 2 missionaries agree and I told scott
Tean: "Ok, we will say a prayer for you but we feel like we need to get to know you better to give a blessing."
He was Ok with that and we said a prayer for him. as we were walking away scott yelled
Scott: "I NOW KNOW YOU GUYS HAVE THE PRIESTHOOD OF GOD! MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU IN ALL THAT YOU DO"
It was a weird experince but I wouldn't trade it for anything. It helped me realize that with the Lord's help you can do anything.
SO This is my flight plan for monday:
Scott yelled: "ARE YOU GUYS THE MISSIONARIES?"
I ran up to him before anyone could talk to him.
Tean: "Yes, we are what can we help you with sir?"
Scott: "Can you guys give me a priesthood blessing?"

It was a weird experince but I wouldn't trade it for anything. It helped me realize that with the Lord's help you can do anything.
SO This is my flight plan for monday:
Get up at 1:30 am so
that I can be in the travel office at 2:30am (I'm travel leader and I
have to get all the knowledge of what I will be doing)
First Flight: SLC To
Dallas Forworth 6 am land in Dallas at 9:40. (I will call you
guys then so if you will send me the phone that would be great.) :)
Second flight: Leave
Dallas at 12:05 pm and arrive in Mexico city at2:30pm
Thrid Flight: Leave
Mexico city at 5pm and arrive in Tampico at 6:20pm
It's a crazy scheudel
but I know that the Lord will help us the whole way through. my comapion is
terrified of flying so not only will I have to take care of a group of 6 but I
have to make sure that my companion doesn't freak out and have a heart attack.
I went to the chiropractor for the last time on Wednesdayand my back and
shoulder have never felt so good! The shoes you got me are perfect! just what I
need. I will send a package home tomorrow (saturday) after I am done packing so
that everything I don't need but I still want I will can send home. I Love the
shoulder bag! It's what I need. It's big enough to but everything I need inside
but it's not huge. As of right now I think the only thing I need is the phone
other then that I'm ok. If I think of anything I will let you know when I get
on at 4 but I think I'm ok. THANK THANK THANK YOU for the pocket knives I
gave one to my compaion and he has used it everyday since. That's pretty much
about it. Oh please do not send me more letters to the MTC I will
not get them in time. Please just email me and I'll do my best to write back. Thanks
guys talk to you from Mexico in a week!
