Well as the title says, it has been two months since I left
my home to start the best two years of my life. These two months have been awesome!
A little hard at first but I´m glad I passed that part. This week we got a
message from our Mission President letting us know that someone special is
going to come visit us. Do you guys know who???
Well Elder Christofferson from the Quorum of the Twelve
Apostles. Yes, it´s a big deal. He´s a Mormon celebrity in other words lol. He
will be speaking in Vera Cruz on August 25 for all the Villahermosa
Missionaries. I am blessed to have this opportunity and can´t express how
excited I am. For the people that don´t know my mission covers some parts of
Vera Cruz, Campeche, Chiapas and Oaxaca. Lol just a random fact.
Well since I mentioned the word blessed on the paragraph
above I just want to say how blessed I am to be here. It´s been teaching me so
many things that will help me later in life. To start off with how blessed I am
to have a home. Sometimes we might think a home is something our parents MUST
provide for us, but it´s not. Some families literally live in a house made out
of old wood. They don´t have shoes and sometimes don´t eat. This week I met two
kids that are 9 years old and work from 5 am to 8pm for 80 pesos. 1 dollar is equivalent
to 14 pesos, so please enjoy your jobs every day. It´s been teaching me to be
thankful for the things I have back home.
Well I survived one transfer and now
I´m here in El Triunfo for another transfer. Ill be back next week, byeee.
