Hola. My first week has been exhausting but good. I don´t understand a lot but it is coming and speaking is a little easier. One thing that was really exciting was that we were able to find ten new investigators in one day and they all seem really interested. I think the most challenging thing so far has been trying to concentrate on people when I am tired and actually understand what they are saying or adjusting to the food and the nausea that comes with that. But I am doing good. I love all the plants it´s so green here and not as humid as I thought it would be but sometimes it rains so hard if you don't have something to protect you, then you are drenched within seconds and it goes on for a while sometimes.

It was pretty cool but gross at the same time because the scales flew back at me some of the time. but it was fun. One of the ladies fried them and after we washed up we helped make tortillas. They were like really thick corn tortillas it was pretty fun. Then we all ate tog...
July 16, 2018 Well, I am going to email a bit about the last little bit in the MTC I know that it's kinda backward but I have been meaning to do it for the last two weeks so here it is. Our last class was really cool we all had been given questions of another person in the class and we spent a little time answering them. It was really cool I am so glad that our wonderful teachers had us do that. Then at the very end, we all shared what we had learned and the thing that stuck out to me the most in the MTC is that it is all about love. The first part of the first lesson is God is our loving Heavenly Father and everything else we teach is because of that. Jesus agreed to be our Savior because he loves is and we would be lost without him! After we all took a picture together. The two in the middle are our teachers Hermana Theobald and Hermano Lyon they are the best! (I am having trouble getting her pictures at the moment, so no picture here.) The last week I was in the ...
