Well in this week we have had a
pretty nice time trying to find new investigators. We are still in the process.
We have had a Stake Conference with President George and also President
Benjamin De Hoyos, the president of the church here in Mexico. It was a great
conference. They talked a lot about the
importance of members helping in the mission work and also about the faith. I truly
enjoyed the talks. I have a few scriptures they used but I can’t remember them.
They are all written in a book back at
my house that I had forgotten at the house. Then something quite different
happened after the conference. On Sunday President George called us and offered
to take my companion Elder Stewart and I here to Tuxtla, to try to save a
little money on traveling, so we had quite a fine time to talk together for 6
hours in the car (: President George is a very honorable man and I am
very grateful for all of his inspiration for us here in the mission. We are now
in Tuxtla and we will be here for my last zone leader conference and then we
will be traveling back to Tapachula on Wednesday. Well we will be visiting a
few of my old members and converts in Las Agulas today so I will be looking
forward to that. And then tomorrow. Oh! And also this week and the next week we
have Elder and Sister Yañez living with us, they are using these weeks to check
all the houses in Tapachula, its super fun to have them over!!! Sometimes they
make us food (: they made flour tortillas the other day and it reminded me of my
mom’s tortillas (: yummm!
Well I’ll see everyone home in a
week and a half!!! Love ya all so much!
