Hey everyone what's goin' on? Here we are in another
Monday it's hard to believe. Sounds like everyone is busy and well as
usual :) Dad I'm glad you finally decided to go skiing haha. Thanks for sharing some of
your experiences with your Sunday School class, sounds like it's going
good for you. Anyway you asked a little about the
weather and growing seasons here. They have been harvesting their crops
basically ever since I got here off and on, and apparently they are
going to plant again for the next harvest at the end of this month.
Right now we are in the dry season, so it hardly ever rains. They say
that the rainy seasons are in like June, July, and August. Right now in
Feb. and March it's pretty windy up here, but not too bad. It's always
been warm in the day, but it's starting to warm up even more in the days
and nights. Also, you asked about transfers. Yes we have transfers in
one week on the 17 we will know about the transfers and on the 19 we
have the change meeting in Puebla (thats if one of us has changes or
not). I love the people here and the area, but I've been here for quite a
while now, so I'd say I'm ready for a change, but we'll see what
happens. Whatever happens will be the Lord's will, so I'm not worried.
Let me know how the little trip to St. George goes. I hope you guys have
fun. You better be careful, Tyler and Cam are going to throw a party at
the house while you're in St. George ;)
Well it was a pretty normal week here in Atexcac.
The days start to blend together sometimes, they are all pretty
similar. We served a lot as usual and visited a lot of less-active
members. It was actually a pretty slow week, but we made a lot of
appointments for this week, so that should be good. Friday we had
interchanges/splits with our district. Elder Olvera went to the lower
area of Atexcac with Elder Matt and Elder Villa came up here with me.
Elder Villa has 4 months on the mission, so it was a rookie
companionship for a day. He actually arrived here in Puebla the same day
as I did, but he is native, so he was only in the MTC for a couple of
weeks. It went really well. Something cool/interesting happened when
Elder Villa and I came back home. The people were waiting for us to
arrive so that we could give one of the grand kids a blessed. Apparently
he saw a evil spirit of a ghost. So we prayed and gave a blessing on the
home, and then we blessed their grand kid who saw the evil spirit. A lot
of interesting things happen out here in Mexico :) Anyway yesterday we
had a lesson with Rodolfo the other nino who is 10 years old that is
going to get baptized. We set a date for him, and also re-set the date
for Ennis, both for the 24th of Feb after the conference. I hope
everything goes as planned...or I guess if I have transfers then I won't
be here. Whatever happens is fine. Oh also, tomorrow we have interviews
with our zone in Nealtican with President Reeves. That should go well,
It's always good to see President.
Well I better finish up. Thank you so much for all
of your love and support each passing week. I love hearing from you and
how you're all doing. Keep up the good work. Oh I got a whole bunch of
letters this week...like 7. I finally got the letter from G n G
Ellsworth that they sent a long time ago, and the Christmas card from
the family. It's cool! Thanks for sending it. I think what happens is it
probably takes a week or so to get to Mexico, but by the time they sort
it, pass it to the leaders, and get it to us its like a month. Anyway I
hope you all have a great week. I'm really having the experience of my
life out here. I'm so grateful to be serving the Lord and preaching the
simple truths of the Gospel that have the power to change to lives of
others. We are all SO blessed. Until next week!
Con Amor,
Elder Kitchen
