Dora?

 Whats popping all, this week was a roller coaster, we went from exploring the jungle to being cornered in an alley by a dog in less than 24 hours.... 


The highlights: 
- last P day we took a van about 2 hours our area, to this place called tapijulapa? I think that's how you spell it. Its literally in the middle of the jungle  of mexico. It was so cool seeing the jungle and hearing wild monkey, getting stung by a large ant, almost getting stranded. It was worth it though, it was so cool.

-We were knocking doors (yelling we barely knock). This girl poked her head out then flipped us off and ran away. It was pretty funny.

-We had a lesson and we were teaching the commandments, the girl we were teaching pulled up the commandments on chat gpt😀 they were not correct to say the least.

-we got a ride from a random girl that was drinking and driving, it was kinda scary especially with the traffic here in Villahermosa.

-In my area (the middle of the city) we have a lot of alleys, they are good to knock in because there are a lot of houses super close by. After we had finished knocking this one, a dog walked into the alley and was barking at us, with nowhere to go we had a standoff for probably 10 minutes until it finally left.

Spiritual thought: 
While knocking, we came across this one guy. He answered and immediately started yelling at us. Telling us how we are wrong and a lot of other stuff that i didnt understand. After we left my comp looked at me and just said don't let those people discourage you, they arent worth our time. Life itself is just a perspective, you can look at it as I have to do this or you could look at it as you get to do this. I only have 2 years for this work, thats the least I could give to the Lord. Have a perspective in your life about looking at problems as opportunities to grow, to learn.

Earthquakes, fires, and headaches

  Holy what a week. A lot happened. To start off with news years, I thought the US did it big for new years. Nope not one bit. It sounded like I was in a war zone all night. At midnight there were about 100 plus elders screaming and yelling on the field right behind the casa. I watched some of the craziest fireworks I've ever seen, we were all standing on the second counselors driveway, to think back to it there were so many other spots to watch fireworks at midnight in the ccm. Thats okay, he didn't yell at us.  I don't think ive ever had such bad headaches and the amount I have had here is not fun. There's been a few days when I bum around in the morning because my head hurts so bad. Friday was definitely one to remember, I woke up with a bad headache and as I was getting ready, there was an earthquake! I'm not gonna say i jinxed it but the day we got to the CCM i joked about how funny it would be if there was an earthquake, well there was one and to make it bette...

Im famous? No

  This transfer was crazy, we did it all literally exploring the jungle all the way to being cornered in an alley by a dog. Its been so amazing serving God in Mexico.  Just found out my dad is DL as well as finishing my training 🙏🙏 thats pretty hype. Alright lets get into it, here are the highlights of this week: -Divies with the ZL, its been weird both of the divies I have done have been in my area with my companion and then another missionary joining us. Its been great. A long with that, we had a sleepover at the ZLs house. That was pretty fun, they live in a house with 4 other missionaries right now.we had boneless, its basically a better Bdubs. Slept in a hammock, that wss pretty lit. They also had a bench so I was able to workout in a normal way. (I miss the gym so much)  -Fernanda is getting baptized!!!! If you don't know who Fernanda is. Well we put a fecha with her the first day I was here, since then we have been fighting (not really but kinda) with her mom to ...

We are looking for José 😃

  And thats another solid week down here in Mexico, it doesnt stop getting hotter.  It was a pretty interesting week so lets get to the good stuff. Highlights:  -We had zone conference, it was chill. I was able to understand a good chunk of it. That was pretty dope. -A lot of the times when we are looking for people and doing public contacts or just talking to people in the streets, instead of making it weird by just starting talking. I like to ask them if they know José, we are looking for José. Sometimes it works, other times you get sent to a house of jehovah witnesses -Met some pretty dope jehovah witnesses, usually they don't like us missionaries. They invited us in and we talked, gave us an invite to their church. The next day we were walking close to their house and he came running with pan and gave us some fire pan. Chill guys, they wont listen to... We tried... -We were knocking some apartments and i looked out and a huge field was on fire, it looked like it was ...
