Week 3 Letter from the CCM - PEPTO is life

HOLA FROM MEXICO CITAAAY!!

This week is one to remember, I GOT SO SICK first of many weeks laying on the bathroom floor all night, and taking Pepto all day. Who knows how I got sick but ohh WELL its gone!!

It has rained so much here this week, buckets and buckets it comes down like no mans business. Also the storms at night are the best with lightning and thunder it’s so beautiful. I have officially reached half way in the CCM!!!!!!! Only 2 more full weeks, I leave the 26th!!! I love it here but am ready to get off to Quito. This place is like a mini heaven everything is beautiful the spirit is so strong and the people are so kind. I LOVE Mexicans they have such big hearts. I also had my first encounter of people touching my hair; this little sister from Guatemala was petting me for a good 30 seconds.

My Spanish is coming, my companion knows much more than me but I try. Our lessons are going good, they even asked us to help some elders that have been here longer than us! It is amazing to think all of the sudden I can get around somewhat speaking broken Spanish. The days here are so long but the weeks are going fast.  On Tuesday we had a devotional from a Spanish member of the 70 he was amazing, he spoke like Elder Holland, so profound. His entire talk was about obeying the commandments, and how we need to obey because we love our savior. I love the spirit, I have felt here, the CCM is of God (de Dios). I love my Savior Jesucristo he is the way the truth and the light of this world. There is no other source of perfect happiness. 

Well that’s it for the big weekly newsletter.

We woke up to rain its pouring, which is rare it usually rains in the evening.

I LOVE YOU ALL WITH ALL MY HEART
para siempre dios esté con vos
