Anti-Santa Claus / Chicken hearted 6-6-2022

Hey everyone! What's up! Que tranza?


It's been a super great week again, maybe it's cause the mission is just so great. 🤔 But for reals, this is some good stuff. Here's some highlights and stuff.

- We went to a lesson with Erendira (the lady that gave us chicken soup last week) and she was telling us all about her experiences reading the Book of Mormon, and then she said she wants to be baptized. 💪 And then when she came to church, she was the first person to bear her testimony, and it was so powerful. She's ready for the gospel.

- We also were teaching a guy named Valentin on the phone, and he's been going through some hard times, and he said he wants to be baptized too. So we set a goal for him to be baptized in July, we'll see what happens. 

- We found 8 new people to teach, two of them were from us sharing the Book of Mormon, 5 of them were from working with members, and the other one is Erendiras son. It's been so cool to see all the blessings that come from working with members. Cause we don't have nearly as much success just knocking on doors and contacting, although we still do.

- Two of the new people we found to teach are a couple, and they were telling us that they got married when she was 12 YEARS OLD. 😳😳

- There was a girl falling asleep on my companions shoulder in the convi, and me and another random woman were kinda laughing. 😂

- There's a lady we found that has probably read the book of Mormon more times than me and says she loves it, but she doesn't want anything to do with the church. I've never seen anything like it.

- My comp doesn't even knock these days, he just opens the door on his own. 😂

- We had a mission leadership council and it was really good as always. We got to review ratios and stuff in the mission and talk about how we can improve as a whole. And then after we went back to Tlaxcala, ate and had a meeting with our Stake President. And I was pretty tired at the end of the day. Meetings make me really tired.

- Also salted and burned a slug

- I'm starting to have a harder time staying awake in some lessons. 😂

- We had exchanges with the Elderes en Zacatelco and I was with Elder Sandoval, it was a good time.

- I ate chicken feet for the first time and chicken heart. But I'm not chicken hearted.

- We've had some lessons with a family a bunch, and there's 3 cousins that are all 11 years old it's a lot of fun. But they gave me and my companion toys, so we're like opposite of Santa Claus. 😳

- We had a fire ward council in Totolac and made a ward mission plan.

- we're just happy. 

I love you all, and have a great week!

  Hello everyone! This week has been such a good week! We had some more Elders over to do exchanges with the Zone Leaders this week and it was really fun! And we got to do exchanges ourselves! It was a blast, we had the Gaylord Elders over and the Petoskey Elders. It was super fun, every time we have Elders come over we go to this soda shop called Rocket Fizz. I've been there so many times since I've been here, they  have all these fun flavors of soda! There are so many, and they are all come in bottles. When we are done we smash them with our bare hands. Yeah, that's right. We had a lot of good lessons this week, we met with Jon a few times, Shelly a few times, the Millner family a few times, Maida a few times, and it was great! Unfortunately, something came up for Maida's baptism and it will be postponed for now. But she is still super excited to continue learning and eventually be baptized! And some more exciting news! We were abl...

The only light I need is the light of Christ! 10-2-2021

  Hey everyone! So Mexico has still been treating me well. I have been having more appointments with the bathroom this week, and we haven't had power in our apartment since Wednesday. And now we're out of gas for our water heater. But it's all good because the Gospel is true! Don't worry, it still has been a good week, we had a lot of blessings and cool experiences. We had a baptism for our friend Rosa García so that was awesome. They had me conduct so I could work on my Spanish, I didn't want to but it turned out okay.  Rosa was definitely prepared, and she is so good! Her daughter was baptized a few months ago, and I think that's what's been helping her coming into the church and believing all of it. They fed us breakfast one morning since we don't have power and brought us tacos one night. They're so good! Also bus rides here you have to hold on for life!  I wonder how often they have to replace their brakes, they use them a ton. But we rode the b...

Jeffrey R. Holland, Ice cream, and Water for Baptisms 11-8-2021

Hello everyone! So this week was crazy as normal, and I know I always say this, but there was a lot of miracles! Some brief stuff: It was one of the missionaries birthdays in our zone so we went and bought him a cake and celebrated with him for like 20 min. We visited Central Puebla last P-day, and it's full of shops and culture, it's so cool! And today we went to this cool burger place, the shakes were wild! We had baptismal interviews that went well for our friends thanks to our district leader and mission president. My Spanish has come a long way since I've got here, God is good. It's all Him in this work! I bought some Halloween mask, and yeah. It's really funny too, because kids only want money instead of candy for Halloween. 😂 And they dressed up and did that for 4 days after Halloween too! But yeah, I just want to share miracles and cool moments with you. (And remember, miracles come from acting in faith.) 1. We had a baptism yesterday, and the c...
