Can you believe that I've already been out here for
almost a year?! I can't. It feels just like last month that I got here
from the MTC, except that I can understand what everyone's saying now
and I know what I'm doing...kinda. =P
Check out this GIANT asparagus we found!!!
This week has
been rather interesting. I was really sad too to see Hna Vazquez go and
even though we both cried a little after we found out, we knew deep deep
deep DEEP down that it was a necessary change. She's now serving with
in another stake but it seems that we will be seeing each other
relatively often before she finishes her mission in May.
My
new companion is Hna PĂ©rez. She's from the Mexico City and is almost as
tall as I am. I still haven't quite adjusted to having someone my
height walking by my side everwhere I go. =P She's super excited about
the work of the Lord and to make a difference here in this area.

Thanks
to my companion's love of contacting, we currently have a new family to
teach that consists of a mom and two daughters. They have a lot of
problems between them and the mom accepted us with the hope that we
could help her rebellious 12 year old that 's dating a 17 year old. o.O
They are really sweet and attentive and we hope to be seeing a lot of
progress with them over the next few weeks.
This
week I've been receiving the blessing of spending a lot of time on my
knees. It was surprisingly hard having a new companion and getting along
with her is easy enough but it's all mostly feelings that I bring upon
myself. Sometimes, I don't know what to do with myself or with my
companion and feel that I just can't do anything. However, I'm beginning
to be taught to be grateful for the daily strength that the Lord gives
me even though my problem doesn't get solved right away.
Sorry it's not much of what's happened this week but I have to go, we are going into Puebla today with our zone to see Meet the Mormans.
I love you all! Have a wonderful week!
Here are some pictures of the jewelry box Jose Abel made for me.
