Man its crazy how fast time goes. Already been on my mission for a month now and I leave for the mission field on the 16th of this month. But i loving my time here and all my learning experiences. Thanks so much everyone for writing me each week. Sorry if i dont get back to you right after, been trying to be obedient to the 1 hour rule so its hard to get it all in.
This week was pretty great. My spanish is getting better every day and Im learning lots of awesome things to help me teach in the mission field. On sunday we watched a video on the Restoration of the Gospel through the perspective of Joseph Smiths mothers view. Man from learning and teaching about the restoration of the church and of Joseph Smith I really love and am so grateful for all he did. He gave his life for this church so I can live with my family for eternity with our Heavenly Father. I memorized the first vision in spanish to teach in lessons and nothing brings the spirit stronger than after I say it in a lesson, its amazing!!
As far as life here in the CCM its been great. I have such an amazing District of guys who work hard and just laugh. We are always together and we all share our testimony often to each other which is really cool. Last night we brought mattresses into our room and had a district sleepover, so much fun! But the best part of it was we were asleep by 10.30 cause we wanted to be obedient. Then we got up at 5.30 and went and worked out together. Literally getting spiritual, getting bigger, and getting blessings. How awesome is that haha. Its so beautiful here in mexico, the sunsets and rises are so awesome.
Still playing soccer in the cancha everyday and doing my 52, 22, 13, then more push ups at night. Getting nervous and excited to leave for the Mission field on the 16th and just taking it day by day. I love you all so much and i want you to know that i know Joseph Smith was a prophet called of God and that he translated the Book of Mormon. I know that this church is true and that it truly does change lives. Thanks for everyone being in awesome example in my life, miss you all tons and i hope you are having a great week.
With Love,
