Buenas tardes hermanos y hermanas!! Esta semana ha sido increíble!! As I'm sure a lot of you know, I have finally made it to mexico!! I arrived in México august 9th and spent the night in Central Juárez. The Elders and hermans aguí are amazing!! They all love the Lord so much and are amazing at spreading the word.
My companion's name is Elder García and he is the bessssttttt!! He is from Monterrey México and is an amazing missionary. He has been out for 20 months and is still going! Our mission is the Benito Juárez Mission. It's AWESOMEEEEE!! We may only have 10 members within 100 miles, but we have 200 possible candidates! Benito is a very beautiful place but is also fairly difficult. There's not much money here, which means we have a lot of people who are willing to serve and help each other. There is also no hot water, but I will say there is a lot of water. It rains a lot here. Everyday actually. And during each day, we have about 6 inches of rain. PRETTY COOL RIGHT!!
It's awesome here and I love it!! The people are amazing and so kind. My companion and I are teaching a lot of people right now, the hard part is that a lot of people believe what we say which is awesome, but they don't understand faith quite yet. YET!!! In time we will have such a big branch that we will need a new building!!
Another cool thing is that I am the Branch Secretary and Elder García is the President!! I know, I'm learning from a pro!! Elder García is one of my best friends, he has taught me so much about loving the people and seeing them as God sees them. He is the best companion I've ever had!! (Yeah I know he's the first, but he's gonna be hard to top). I love this place so much and I'm so grateful to be out here spreading the gospel through Christlike service.
I know that this is where I need to be!! I LOVE BENITO JUÁREZ, AND I LOVE THE LORD!! This is going to be the best two years!
