Week 2: Ninety-nine more weeks - and no Shower!

Well I have now survived a whole two weeks in Mexico! Weeks seem to be going by really fast now since we work like crazy!  Even though we only probably teach 3 or 4 lessons average a day somedays around just 2.  I am really progressing really fast in becoming a better missionary everyday with the help of my two awesome companions.  

I am participating more and more in each lesson as well.  I memorized the first vision in spanish in a few minutes and that day shared the account to two investigators who just lost their son.  The spirit was so strong when we were teaching but the man hardened his heart like many people have done so in the scriptures.  He refused to take more lessons but I was saddened because of that for we planted the seed and maybe the future missionaries may find success.  

There is this guy named Jesus who has read the BoM twice and already has a testimony that it is true and wants to be baptised!  No one has ever taught him as well!  He contacted us one day and told us he is a Mormon by conviction haha.  I really like this guy cause he stood up during priesthood meeting when the Elders quorom pres. was assigning home teaching stuff and got right up and told everybody that they need to do this so we can build the kingdom of God and bring more people to church.  

That was also the first day I gave a blessing as well.  Holy Cow I was nervous at first cause i'm still working on Spanish but I prayed before hand and when I gave the blessing I know the words came directly from our Heavenly Father because I couldn't have thought up those words by myself it would of taken hours almost! 

Well my testimony has been growing so fast while I have been here. I already can't wait for my homecoming talk so I can share my testimony.  Love you all! Talk to you all next week! just around 99 more weeks to go!
