Mariscos and Smiles All Around....



Hola Everybody...
This week has been a little hard...in more ways than one...but everything is going really well...


First of all I am a Legal Temporary Resident of Sonora, Mexico...haha kind of a weird feeling haha we had to go in to the immigration office on Wednesday and take care of all the paperwork and stuff to stay here for the two years...:)


This week we have had alot of seafood...Tuesday we had fish tacos which were really good but nothing out of the ordinary...Wednesday we had this soup with Manta Ray in it...Kind of a funny story I had no idea that it was Manta Ray or else I would have taken a picture...haha kind of weird looking in a bowl haha....then on Sunday we had a cold type of soup...looked like a salsa with fresh tomatoes and cilantro with white chunks in it...it was a stronger meat but once again no one told me what it was....and apparently it was Squid haha...kind of interesting flavor...but quite good in a salsa like soup...haha...




We are continuing to work hard with the members in the Missionary work....and it is a lot easier now that we have gained most of their trust and i think they enjoy having us come over and visit and share a quick thought....We finally got a Ward Mission Leader...our last one is Inactive...but we feel really good about this one and we are super excited to have weekly coordination meetings like we are supposed too....One experience I had this past week was that I had the opportunity to baptize an investigator that the Sister missionaries had...It was a super cool experience...as you can see from the picture Cristian (the name of the New Member) is super serious and he is super serious all the time....and when asked if he was excited about his baptism he would say with the straightest face you can imagine ,"Ya I am excited" (of course in spanish) but every time I saw him he never cracked a smile...But after I baptized him and after he could feel that amazing feeling of being clean...He Looked at me...Smiled a huge smile and said Elder Child....Yo Siento Bien (I Feel Good) and then gave me a huge hug....Great experience...


Sorry for the short letter...Thanks for everything again
Elder Child
