awesome week!

WOW, this week has been amazing! it was awsome. so it started with us having crazy good success on tuesday last week, it felt like every door we knocked on was someone who was waiting to hear what we had to say. it was amazing we found soo many amazing families who are "GOLDEN" so throughout the week we met with the families and continued teaching them and invited them to come to church with us and they said YES so sunday we had 2 families in the church with us and it was testimony meeting and it seemed like everyone in the ward bore their testimony it was awsome and me and my comp decided to bear ours so we did and when we sat down one of the moms was crying and after she said shes not sure what happened but something inside her was soo happy and peacefull being there and hearing the testimonies, so yeah it was pretty much awsome. we are going to set some baptism dates for February with the 2 families, and we have about 4 other people that couldnt go to the church this week but they are also really good investigators, so yeah this week was great,.

mission conference

well hello again, well this week has been good with the mission conference and everything. the conference was AWSOME!! i loved it first our president spoke and as a mission we set a new goal for baptisms of 100 every week then our presidents wife spoke haha her first talk in complete spanish in her 2 and a half years here haha she gets frustrated with spanish haha but i know how it is, then the wife of president mickelson spoke about the effects and blessings of serving missions it was cool, then president mickelson spoke about doctrine, about the atonement and the degrees of glory and the requirements to acheive each one it was awsome and he talked about all kinds of things that really helped us and at the end he opened it up for questions! so we got to ask him anything it way way cool!! so yeah the conference was pretty rare it was the second one in 4 years and the first time the whole mission was together for one, we had every missionary, there is one elder in the hospital with leukimia(dont know how to spell it) its a cancer or something and he is having chemo therapy and even he came to the conference so that was way cool, all the elders have been donating platelets for his medical stuff. so for my birthday hmmm not sure i dont really need anything and dont really have room for anything in my luggage so yeah, im getting a package ready to send home and its gonna be kinda expensive like 50 dollars so yeah its got a cool purse for lia and im gonna try to get a soccer jersey for sam or something and ill throw some other stuff in that might be cool for you guys like the picture cds and stuff, but yeah im almost 20!! wierd im getting old but you guys are almost 40 so im doing good hahaha well what size pants did you order. i got a package from nana full of her caramels!!!! it was awsome! the teaching is going good we have a few families listening, well if you guys want to pray for a family in our ward they are hopefully going to get their endownments on valentines day and the husband is kinda hesitant about it but they invited us to go through the session with them so thats cool its part of the family that i was with when i talked to you guys on christmas the Garcia Tellez family. the neatest experiance soo far.... probably baptisms and just being a missionary!! its awsome!! the scariest... hmmm sometimes the dogs try to eat us haha and the fact that some of the peole here are just straight up CRAZY haha lots of drunks and druggies but nothing has ever happened to us, favorite part about the mission... every one loves us in the wards, its like we're famous the members are awsome, my least favorite is all the ignorant and pridefull people that are rude and dont want to hear our message but thats life, my comps name is Alfonso Garcia Robles from Juarez, Chihuahua well this week has been good and ive got 6 months in the mission so thats cool, i still havent got that cd or anything from you guys, and i still havent heard from macen so i dont know, well i better get going thanks for the picture haha looks fun!! i love you guys

pictures!

This is a picture of Elder Curtis' first baptism (I think) and I'm hoping this is the family that lives near the church that really take care of him. Also there is one of he and Elder Crick (a buddy from school) he is serving in Mexico City West. They found each other at the cultural celebration. Looks like he's having fun anyway.

rain

well this week has been alright nothing too exciting, we teach people everyday but no one really wants to hear anything. ( I asked him what book he was reading)and im reading a little in Jesus The Christ, it makes my brain hurt sometimes its pretty intense. well it sounds like its just another winter back home, so last week after i said the weather was perfect here.... i cursed us haha the next day it was cold and started raining!! we didnt see the sun untill sunday afternoon and it rained the whole week not hard but enough to soak everything and it was constant so yeah lots of water and wet clothes. but this week looks promising, it was good to actually get some rain though. that sucks you guys are all sick thats no fun. well im glad to hear about the ward sounds like everyone is doing good. well keep me posted. well ill write more when i get on later tonight, hopefully. haha this week we have an ALL MISSION conference with our area general authority Elder Mickelson so thats cool well i love you guys sorry i dont write more, but the questions help haha i love you guys.
