hey so i don't have a lot to say to day because i talked you yesterday, but i'm sick with stomach pains yet again in my mission. but that's ok i'm going to tought it out and work hard because i know that the holy ghost will give me strength to work the the vineyard of the lord! I love you all and i hope that all goes well!

I love oyu all and i'm so glad i know everyone of you! just to throw a little twist in things i'm going to write my testimony in spanish

Yo se que esta es la iglesia verdadera y que jesucristo sufrió por nosotros. Puedo encontrar todos mis preguntas. Estoy muy agradacido por el libro de mormon. porque es otro testimento de Jesucristo! Voy a leer El Libro De Mormon con todos los pies de pagina.(footnotes) para aprender mas de la iglesia esas cosas YO SE CON TODO ME CORAZON! 

EN EL NOMBRE DE JESUCRISTO AMEN!

hey so last week was a good week and a bad week,  went and the doctor wasn't there so now i have to get on another bus go 4 hours to tampico to visit him and who knows when that will be so tampico was amazing! we worked with the assistances ot the presidents! we ate a ton of good food and we staid up late talking.(because we knew we had a long bus ride back to victoria so me and my comp slept the whole time talk about a nice nap!). so yes mom i used my card to go down to tampico but since the doctor wasn't there the wife of our mission president said that i could get my money back. so I will get every cent i paid back! Yesterday was a super hard day. after church we were pretty much rejected in every house we went to! i mean everyhouse! when we got back to the house i just went down and laid on bed because of how bad i felt. it was horrible but today i have prayed and am praying that we can see everyone we go to! so today we had a guy come and fix our water and he said arlington after every since i found it funny and me and my comp could not understand him it wasnuts but we tried and did our best! well that is my week for you guys hope all is well!!!!!

how is seattle?? so i will be calling you on  the 11th at 1 my time which will be at 12 your time. sorry if that is in the middle of church it's the only time i can do it. I plan on it only being me and my comp this time. Ok you asked for an experenice i have one that happened yesterday! so yesterday my comp was sick. so we ran back to the house so he could use the bathroom. he opened the door and just before i could walk in the door shut on my face. and here in mexico you have to have a key to open the doors. so my comp had the keys. so i needed to hope a 10 foot fence. so i dropped my backpack and hoped it. i went into to talk to my comp really fast and went back out side to get my backpack it wasn't there. someone stole it! will all my stuff my scriptures some pamphlets and my last 100 pesos. so right now i am with out scritptures. until i can go down to tampico to buy new ones. which is going to cost a buttload! luckly i have a book of mormon that we can give out to use. but really it sucks! so yesterday we had 5 invs in the church it was awesome! please pray for them that they can contuine to progress their names are Noemi, Juan, Jenny, san carlos, Jesus. I really want to see their baptism. that should be held on the 7th of june! That is awesome what happened in califorina! tell tance i give a high five for saying that! Thanks for all that you do for me! i love you all and i can't wait to talk to you on mothers day!

hey so this week i was amazing!!!!!!! a lot happened. we had a  lot of new people to teach and it was amazing to finally be able to work hard again, my last comp didn't like to work hard so it was amazing the change we had. They don't celebrate easter down here so i totally forgot about it. they have what they call semana santa (holy week) and they have diffenet activities. But i didn't forget howerever that christ paid for our sins! we had no invs in the church today. the sad part is that we went to pick up one and she wasn't home. the other we called and he said he was on his way but he never showed up either. so that was kinda sucked. It's starting to get hot down here but i'm learning to love it! That sucks to hear about big grandma but we know where she is and she is looking over us as well as papa. mY birthday was the exact same as every other day in the mission. which wasn't bad. for my birhtday cake i bought my self a little cookie and eat it. I would send pics put i forgot my camera in the house. I have still yet to recieve my package but i know it will come. Me and my comp are getting along great! yesterday in sacrement meeting one of the elders of the ward stated that he was a little worried for the condition of the ward and how they are helping the missionaries out. so he helped them find the excitment nessariary to help us. That is so awesome that everyone had something to do. I hope you had fun in califorina i want to hear all about it!

oh i forgot to mention that on friday it rained really hard but it doesn't matter we still worked really hard and had a lot of fun! just remeber that i love you! but more importantly the lord loves you!!!!!!!!!!!! and always wants us to be happy and true happiness only comes from obeying the lords commandments! tell the family that i love them and if there is anything i can do for you or for your family please let me know!

so last week was good it was the last week of the change and i got to talk to my mission president and it was nice. so when we talked he asked me how me and my comp were doing and i told him the truth that it was kinda hard to get a long with him this change. he then asked me where i would like a new comp or stay with him a change longer. I told him that i would like a new comp but it's not what i want it's what the Lord wants. He then got revolation in that moment and told me that i would be getting a new comp. he didn't tell me who but he told me a got a new comp and so that is what happened I got a new comp. his name is elder Tadeo (ta-day-oh) is how it is said. I ment him awhile back in mante and we were great friends. he told me he was super pumped when they told him he was coming here to victoria to be my comp. and i was too. I couldn't sleep last night. Ok, yes i could but still i was super happy. so today while we waited for our new comps to arrive we played 2 games of risk. it was so fun! then everyone went out for pizza and then we came back and played another round of risk. I love it when we can just kick back and have fun like that! Thanks for telling me happy birthday I know that it will be beacuase i'm in the sercvice of the lord. so that is all that happened this week thanks for all the love and support!!!!!!!!!!
