I think Mexico has changed my point of view on
material things alot more then the mission. Mainly because most people
have little to nothing and are struggling all in all. That and the fact
that I have nothing but clothes and books to study. So kindof everything
changed my point of view on that, but still good.
Evangelists are pretty much Christians with a fiew
different beleifs. Not sure what those differences are but yeah. They
also love to involve politics in there religion and as we know that does
not work. The man, well we had to drop him because everytime we would
go over there he would just tell us how no one is right and God will
save all the rightous people of all the churches... well you get the
idea, he is so stuck in his way that the thought of change is just un
heard of.
Well, ok onto my week,
well last monday night we went to the Torre LatinoAmericano, meaning
Latin American Tower, which is the tallest tower in latin american!
Anyways, so we went to the very top viewing deck and took tons of
pictures of the city at night. This city is SO huge! All directions you
looked and there was lights until the smog engulfed the lights. It is so
big! I attached pictures, sorry if there cruddy but my camera is not
very good at night pictures.
I have been stomach sick all this week... Meaning
the majority of the days have been spent in the bathroom. Kindof sucks
actually.... But what can I do some food does not agree with me.
Apparently peridodically throughout the week there have been minor
earthquakes were people have felt them. The thing is though that me nor
my compaion have felt them at all... so wierd.
WE
had three baptizms this week, Julia, Nancy, and Luis, pictures
attached. All of which were super excited for there baptizms! WE had to
marry Nancy to her husband but her husband did not want anything... yet.
Anyways so this next week as kindof a celebratory treat to them we are
making them brownies... which do not really exist down here. Super
excited for those!
I got my shoes shined the other day, here they have
people that will do it for you for like a dollar. Anyways so this guy
used a torch to kindof seal shine on to make it last longer.I have never
seen my shoes so shiny before. I would send a picture but you cant tell
the difference in the picture... Its all good though.
So we were suppose to have one more baptizm, Maria,
but the day of we could not find here, turns out she went to Port Nevaca
( Probably misspelled...) So we get to play the find her again this
week game to try and baptize her this week, she wants to but we think
she has a doubt that she is not telling us. We will see.
My companions birthday is today and so we are going
to Chilis in centro to have some of that, so I will be pulling money out
today for that...
I get to talk to you guys
next month! So exciting! What day is mothers day? The tenth? Depending
on my companion I will tell you how that is going to work. Hopefully by
Skype again.

The

Luis, the middle aged woman is named Nancy and the older lady Julia. The

Ok, well I think that is all. I look forward to yalls letters next week!
