Saltillo!!!!

May 14th, 2018

 Hey guys its been a while!!  Lots of things have changed since the last time I wrote!  I got transferred to saltillo!  The capital of coahuila!  My area is about 20 mins outside of saltillo and its called ramos arizpe!  Its a really really cool area!  Its weird going from a little farm town to a big city!  I ate carls jr the other day and it was my fist time eating fast food in 9 months haha!  It didn't even taste that good lol.  I gues Mexican food is where its at!  Or the Super bacon thick burger just wasn't the way to go lol.    

   Im in a trio right now because my new comp is finishing up in the mission offices and he is training someone to take his place.  His name is Elder Shaner!  Until he gets here in a couple weeks I will be with Elder Hannig and Elder Gomez!  Elder hannig goes home in a couple moths and he is from st George!  Elder Gomez is from mexico city and he has been out six months.  

  The trio has been running both areas for the last couple weeks and its been crazy!  We are teaching a lot of poeple right now and there are a lot of potential baptisms!  

   When I got off the bus in saltillo my comps didn't pick me up on time so I was waiting in the bus station for about an hour and a half by my self hha!  But while I was there a miracle happened!  When I got off the bus the man who helped me get my bags out of the bus started talking to me and calling me elder and stuff, so I asked him if he was a member or baptized and he said no, but that he had talked to missionaries before.  He told me the missionaries helped him get off drugs and find a job, but he didn't get baptized because they went home before they could set a date.  He doesn't live in my area but I sent the reference to the Elders in his area, and he said he would be waiting!  I guess the time when my comps were supposed to pick me up got changed for a reason haah!  Everything happens for a reason.  I hope you all have a great week this week!  Happy mothers day!  sorry for not sending pics in such a long time ill get workin on it!  Love you all!

  The best week of my mission!!!!!!! Hello everyone!  I was super super nervous for this week, but it turned out being one of my favorite weeks in the mission so far!!  So my old companion Elder Lorenzo was made zone leader here in Neuva Rosita, it was sad to see him go but ill still talk to I'm all the time because he is my zone leader!!  My new comp is elder Diaz and he is from Argentina!!  He has four months in the mission, so we are both super new, but we are killing it!  This has forced me to learn my area really fast, and I realized I know my area a lot better than I thought.    This week I have realized, that my English is starting to go downhill haha!  Sometimes I forget how to say something. Or I don't know how to use the correct grammar!  Kinda crazy haha.  Now I don't know English or Spanish! sometimes ill be talking to another American missionary and I will start talking in Spanish without realizing it!...

UNA SEMANA MAS TERMINADA (Another week down) Hola everyone!! Everything is going well here in Sabinas!  We are working super hard and having success each day!  We got two more baptism dates!  Their names are Jose and Rufina!  I have a strong testimony that the lord truely does prepare people for us to teach. Things are also going really well with Gerardo, he is the one I'm teaching in English.  He can speak English because he used to be a drug dealer, (narco) and he drove back and forth from Mexico and the united states transporting drugs.  He truly has repented and he has such a strong testimony.  When I first started teaching him he reminded me of Joseph Smith.  He said, all these churches claim they have the truth but they all teach different things.  I explained that Joseph Smith had the exact same question, and I taught him about the restoration and Book of Mormon in English!  He is the only person I have met he...
