My Disappointment Is Immeasurable and My Day Is Ruined

Allow me to explain the title for this e-mail. Sometimes, back home, I heard that they served Costco pizza in the Mexico MTC, so when I got here on day one, they said it was pizza night and naturally I got pretty excited. But no. I get to the cafeteria and there a bunch of Little Caesar’s boxes where they're dishing out the food. I mean it wasn't “that” bad, probably the same as it is in Utah but it sure ain't the heavenly stuff they have at Costco. And come to think of it the food is quite underwhelming in general. The fruit isn't as good as I thought it would be (besides the grapes) and most of the stuff is all kinda bland and just a small step up from cafeteria food. The green salsa is good though and they sometimes have these good yogurt drinks in the morning which are the highlight of my breakfast. 

On Monday we went to the temple which was quite a nice experience and it was cool do drive through part of Mexico city to get there. The temple is usually closed on Monday’s so it was, just the baptistry open and it was just for missionaries. 

The weather is pretty good here it's not very hot or cold and it's nice outside the entire day usually. We are outside a lot of the time also sense the campus, is a bunch of small buildings in one big area. 

Some new missionaries arrived on Tuesday so now my group aren’t the newbies anymore. There are also a ton of birds here flying around the whole place. Apparently this evening there's going to be a service project for us to do so we'll see what that includes. 

All the classes seem kinda the same and Sundays are so packed with meetings and discussions it's not even funny also theres a lot of stuff after classes in the week so they keep us pretty busy here. 

Well I cant think of anything else to write so that looks like all for this week I'll probably go eat like a crappy sandwich or something for lunch now

Bye

We also knocked into some people who invited us in and gave us a Mexican treat it was like an ice cream cone lookin thing filled with Carmel and a pecan or something it was kinda good.

In the evening we went up to Lovington and had a lesson with one of the people who's been coming to church.  On Friday we had ...

The Wild East

 Goood morning how are all of us today? Here we are again another week to write another letter. This week was somewhat eventful so here's a brief explanation for some of the events.  On Monday evening some other missionaries came into town to a mini exchange here in Hobbs but we were both working in our area. We knocked doors the whole evening and met some interesting people. Tuesday was pretty normal, we had district council then did our singing service then later in the day we went and did English class. After that we visited some members who are pretty cool then we had a lesson with someone who we just started teaching again.

On Thursday we had a couple more lessons which was good.

It is well

Goood morning gentlemen and ladies. I suppose a letter is due seeing that this is in fact my last week in the mission field. It's been pretty awesome being out here and definitely the best decision I ever made up until now—is serving a mission. I don't really got too many profound spiritual things to say here so might as well give a little recap.  It's been really great being here in Hobbs and all the other areas meeting all the people specifically the Spanish ones. This last week we met with lots of cool people and taught them. On Monday we met with our friend Mario who's on baptismal date and he's doing well. We talked about the plan of salvation and he said an epic prayer at the end. We also met with 2 other people were teaching who are doing really well and we talked with them about baptism. Tuesday was also good we had a lesson in the afternoon and then English class and some other lessons and stuff On Wednesday we had an exchange with the other elders here in ...
