Hola amigos, familia, conocidas, fulanos, y fans,
This was a pretty crazy week! Tuesday
we had district class and divisions with my zone leader elder mendoza,
during divisions, the other american in my ward elder moser and I went
to this little university to teach english to kids trying to get ahead
in their classes. Our president set it up with a member and the topic we
had to teach them? US History 1820-1840. Between mister andersons
history class flash backs and my english doctrine and covenants we
taught a nice little class.
We finished late tuesday night and came back to our area because wednesday
we had our multi-zone conference with Elder Pino from the 70. He taught
us a lot with his wife about the blessings of being a missionary, the
importance of the call we carry, and how to work better with our
companions.
Thursday
was a rainy day and we taught another english class to the members in
our ward and had a decent little turn out. Teaching people to pray in
english is a funny way to spend an hour.
Friday
was nuts/great because we had the first ever Mission Conference in the
Mission Mexico Xalapa. The whole mission was together and Elder
Christensen from the presidency of the seventy came with Elder Peiper
from the area presidency. It was a question and answer session and it
was pretty darn cool. We learned a TON from them. Super awesome, and we
got to see the whole mission including my old comp elder Garcia and my
whole group from the MTC.

Other than that we had a pretty
normal week. Today we had a ping pong tournament as a zone and once
again I had some serious mister anderson flashbacks as I represented
Lehi in the world-missionary-ping-pong-championship. I came out with the silver medal.
Had
a few dreams with lots of you guys speaking spanish this week and thats
real freaky when I know you´re all a bunch of gringos and gringas with
the spanish equivilant of my mother with Taco, burrito, and México as
your vocab depth.
Have a chito week,
