Week 87 in Mexico

Well this week was good but it was not that good talking about our numbers. We had our baptisms after a lot of complications. We couldn't do a ton Friday for some dumb reasons but we did get ton Sunday before our sacrament meeting. So that was all good. It turns out that I needed to learn a lesson this week. The family that we found the last week where we sang the families can be together forever, they went back to their home town!!! Yep, so we need to get in contact with the elders in Guerrero to pass them the reference, because they were so sweet. But I know and accept the will of the Lord. For some reason they weren't supposed to be baptized here, or they would have stayed. But we just have to accept it and try to learn something from it. But we had someone that had gone to church one time and he went yesterday. His name is Luis and he will be baptized this Saturday. He was hit by a car and can't walk. He is in a wheelchair but his biggest dream is to be able to walk again. He doesn't work because no one accepts him anywhere. So he goes out to the stop lights and asks for donations in his wheelchair. Yeah that is how good our life is. We will never have to do that. And so many people do that here. Also you see a lot of people looking through the garbage finding something to eat for dinner. I can stand it sometimes. But that is something that's normal for them.
 
Anyways I was thinking about home this week a little, not too much, haha but I honestly couldn't picture myself being home. It seems like this is my life now. haha. That is going to be a weird transformation. 
 
Hey Spencer Payne wrote me a letter and told me how he loved hanging out with me and how I was such a good friend to him. He said that he was sorry because at the end of senior year he kind of went off with his girl friend and didn't hang out with us much. But he wants to be there when I get home, so call his mom and tell him hi for me because I can't write a letter because it will get there after I am already home. I think he is another candidate for baptism.
