Week 44 Villa Bonita

Hey Guys! This week was a pretty good week for me here. We had another baptism. We baptized Elvia, who is the Chuy´s grandma. We had the baptism in between to sessions of Stake Conference so that was a little stressful because of the time limitation. Everything worked out perfectly.

Stake Conference was pretty interesting because an area seventy came. In Mexico, things are a little different. This guy came and was super direct and in three sessions of conference he chastized the whole stake telling them what they were doing wrong. It was really interesting to watch as he had bishops come to the front to answer questions and publicly correct them for their mistakes. 

The wife of the president, Sister Munive, gave a talk and she had a few missionaries sing a primary song as the opening part of her talk. Me and a few other missionaries sang La Familia es de Dios (The Family is of God). It was fun and we sounded pretty good.

This week it is finally cold! Too cold actually in the morning when we have to take freezing cold showers. So, usually when we have time, we heat water up in a bucket and use that water to take showers. It kinda sucks, but it's better than freezing cold showers on a cold morning. During the days it feels amazing outside and it really helps give us the motivation to talk to everybody. I´m getting along great with my new companion, (I think I said last week that he is from Oaxaca, that was a lie, he is from Puebla.)  

Thanks for all your support and letters, I love you guys a lot!  Hasta Luego!

This is what I made myself for breakfast. It is a Mexican version of the Sunshine Skillet from Bob Evans. 
It has an egg on the bottom, and inside it has chorizo, salchicha, tomato, and onion. It was super good.
