Oh btw hi everyone!
But
no seriously, i didnt know easter was yesterday. Its not that
celebrated here. Instead what the celebrate is semana santa, basically
the week of the crucifixion and resurrection. The most celebrating i saw
here though is people taking time off of work, everyone eating fish,
and everyone make the famous Capirotada bread, haha i wouldnt say its
the best tasteing bread.
And if i remember correctly, one of the talks in church was on
tithing... :) but for the 3rd hour we did watch a video about Jesus
Christ.
Its crazy to think how much time has gone by. I almos have exactly a yr here in mexico.
Thats really cool you got to meet Brandon Mull, yeah i remember his books.
So
this week was pretty good. One thing i have noticed here is that with
my new tan i have developed here, more people are assuming that i am the
mexican companion in the companionship. Everyone asks where my
companion is from and he says idaho and then they ask me and i tell them
minnesota and they all tell me they thought i was mexican. There are
some times i tell them im from Sinaloa MX and they believe it.
Now last week i mentioned that i made 3 leches cake but didnt quiet
finish it and that i was going to tell you how it turned out.... bad. i
think we screwed up on the ingreadients or how to make it. And i dont
know if it matters but we used regular flour instead of cake flour and
in the end the cake wasnt supper sponge like and didnt suck up the milk.
Also news about the work here in Mexicali, we are slowly finding
more people to teach. This past week we were able to bring two young men
to church (aberham and isaac). Their grandparents are unactive members
that we are reactivating and their parents arnt really around a lot from
what i have seen. They like being there in the lessions with their
grandparents and i think they liked it there at the church. We are going
to talk to the family this week about baptism. We are also going to see
if we can get a nice big game of futbol going this jueves and have them
and the other youth in the ward come and invite all their friends! I
hope it all works out.
[the picture] i sent is of my comp and i tired on the side of the
road, it was pretty hot out haha.
Love you all, and love hearing all that is going on at home!
