4.2.18 So long Cauatepec, hello Ticoman Lindavista


4.2.18

Well, I put in a good 6 months in Madero and now im taking my talents tooooooooo.  
TICOMAN LINDAVISTA. This area is super super cool and theres a lot of work to get done. the ward meets in a church thats the size of a small pre school with like 4 rooms with few members. so my goal before i leave is to fill the 4 rooms!! Also my new companion  is Elder Herrera and hes like 5 foot 4. No joke. I'll try to send pics but right now im having technical difficulties with my camera. Hes from el salvador and hes a really cool guy. He finishes his mission in 2 changes so I guess the lords put us together so we could build this area and get him to the finish line! I've heard  he likes to work!!  Sooooo lets go boys!

I spent the last week in Madero straight grinding. Contacting contacting and contacting.but Conference was soooooo clutch, just what I needed. We learned a lot about forgiveness, revelation, and our duties as members and priesthood holders in this church! Shout out to President Nelson. He honestly is called of God. His words not only apply to the saints of the united states, but apply to the struggling saints here in Mexico. I love him and I fully sustain him. 

 One of the hardest things I've had to in the last 7 months  is to leave Madero, and leave a family that we've been teaching. (the family of Miguel Angel) . after sharing my last message with them about the blessings of living the gospel, we said goodbye. This was probably the second hardest goodbye next to my parents (and Mckay) at the airport.  As I left, they told my that they could see something special in us. Miguel angels wife turned to him and said "that's because what they're  teaching is true."  I love this work and i love these people.  Just like Hermana Lewis' email,  we as missionaries are planting the seeds, wonderful people who just aren't ready and I testify that is true. One of the saddest things I do as a missionary is to drop investigators. Its the hardest for me. I always give them the benefit of the doubt but every person has their time. Its like a flower, some bloom early and some are late bloomers who need a little more time, but we must never lose faith in their ability to bloom.
hope you all had a good week!!! Love you all!
