12/11/2018 - What's Goin' On, Slick?

Hey, whats good fam? Happy birthday shout out to my young blood Court, stay classy fool.

This week was an interesting one. I had to send my boy Elder Dahle off, he should be getting home later in the afternoon. That was a hard one. I hate to watch em go. My new companion is Elder Burnham from Montana! He is an awesome Elder and we should have a lot of success together.

The Lord has been testing us this past week. There have been lots of issues with investigators and people who were supposed to be baptized that were not for other reasons and it has been a little hard to be able to be patient, but the Lord is trying to teach us right now.  We are confident in the power of the Lord and that he will help us in our times of tribulation and even though I get frustrated and stressed about that stuff sometimes I always seem to be happy which I think is good haha. But its OK we are still planning 5 baptisms for December, and are relying on the Lord to help us help these 5 souls come unto Christ through this saving ordinance. I've learned a lot of things during the mission. especially patience, humility, and meekness.

So this week is the day of the virgin and boy is it a circus out here. People come in from all parts of Mexico on a pioneering trip to pay tribute to the Virgin Altisima. It is ridiculous. Idolatry is on a different level down here. It is crazy to see these people, and of course the center of everything is in our ward boundaries so the whole place is packed. The government is closing streets down and everything so these people can camp out and go buck wild. It's awesome to be part of the true church where we worship the only true and living God.

Love ya. Have a good week. Sorry no pictures this week, except one :)
