May 18, 2015 Hidalgo


Whats up?
Guys they transfered me again to another area just like I told you was going to happen... Dang it. NOt too happy about it either. But IM in a new area called Hidalgo with E. Parduhn from my generation. The are is just outside Villahermosa and its a nice ward. I am having a lot of trouble with the ciber that I am at because it wont let me send you my recordings, nor put yours onto my MP3 player. I cant wait until I can finally just use my own laptop or wahtever to sed things and not have to rely on others techonolgy to do things. THat will be nice. I am trying as I write this letter to fix things and get my MP3 to work to send you the recordings I made this week... Sorry guys if they dont get to you today. They will come within the week, that I am sure of. 
BUt apart from that, things are okay I guess. Im kinda ticked with the leadership here because they shut down the last area I was in with E. Romero. I was only there for 3 weeks so I was upset that they didnt even give me a chance there. I walk in, put a baptismal date and then they take me out a week later. TO me, that makes no sense. But whatever. Im with E. Parduhn now who is from my same generation and he is Senior Companion. We both are leaving on the 13th of July and are planning on baptizing this coming friday supposedly. (the recordings explain this) its a couple that they had been working with that we went to help get married this morning. (for that I am on here later than usual) Kimberly and Sergio are their names. Hoping that with all the work that we have put into this week alone getting them married will pay off with a baptism for them on friday at 5pm. WIsh us luck on that one.
The ward is good and know how to do things from what I have seen. Im just hoping they dont get lazy with us and make it our fault for the things that happen in the ward. (That seems to happen a lot here.) The ward mission leader served a mission somewhere in Utah, where exactly, I dont know. But theres a lot of people here that speak english and have lived there for a great number of years, so thats a plus for us. Its nice speaking english. 
ANyways guys, thats all I got for today, I am sorry about the recordings. I will try to get them to you later tonight or tomorrow. The cibers in our area are probably the worst that Ive seen in the mission so dont be surprized if the letters start coming in place of the recordings. #hatemexicantechnology 
Thanks guys for the recordings, even if I cant listen to them yet, I know I will get to them eventually. Its alright. Hope you guys have a good one. LOve you all!

PS this is the family that you all met on the skype call. This was right after we got the transfer call that they were shutting the area down on us. They send their regards. =)

Hey guys, SOrry there wont be that many this week. I was special transfered to Minatitlan with Elder ROmero. It was quite the trip over here so I will let you know more in the family letter I send you. I recieved the phone call from >Elder Haglund on tuesday and had to leave that next morning. Kinda upset about it, but I cant say anything. The area is fine I guess, but my comp is pretty cool. Hes 25 and has about a year in the mission. Not bad. I will let you know with more details. =)


Love you guys,

Hey guys,
This week was kinda a tough one for me. One of the harder ones that Ive had here on this misson. We had to travel up to Cuichapa so that my companion would be able to get to know the area for himself so we spent all of saturday and sunday up there. Apart from that we had a funny rundown with an old lady that didnt know how old she was and I told you a little bt more about that one in the recording. She broke her wrist a little while ago and her name is Dolores. Shes hilarous and reminds me a lot of grandpa reese hahaha. But shes great and has a great spririt about her. We hope to get her baptized soon. Its just a matter of making her or rather allowing her to understand that she needs God in her life. I hope that shell be able to get baptized soon... the only problem though is that she is basically deaf and cant hear us It makes it even harder with our accents that we have as americans. She almost cant understand what we say. We are hoping that things will turn out for the better though =) Wish us luck this week. 
Kinda stressful week though so I didnt really have that much to say. We had a alot of things going on that needed to happen. Sorry if its so little and my messages are cut short, I just didnt really have that much time to make recordings this week. Ill make more this week. =)
Love you guys,
