Hello another time

Good morning Its me again from new Mexico. I guess since it's another p-day I'm obligated to write another one of these things. Don't worry it won't be too long considering it's been like 4 days.

The rest of the week last week wasn't too eventful. We spoke with some of our folks we’re teaching and had some lessons but nothing insane. On Saturday we spoke to one of our folks we’ve had a lesson with and he said he was coming to church and his friend or something was also there and he had some interesting ideas on religion and said our problem is that we aren't calling jesus by his original Hebrew name and the reason so few people will get into the kingdom of heaven is cuz we don't call him yashua and then he shared a story about how he was inspired to walk from Hobbs to Odessa to be rejected by a pastor and then he walked to Milshew…it was quite the tale.

Later in the day, we had a lesson with another dude we've been trying to meet with for a while and we were starting to have our lesson but then his big son in law came in and kinda almost started arguing with us about our religion but then we talked more about our beliefs and he chilled out and said he would rap some music to us and he ended up being a cool dude. We ended up finishing our lesson with the original dude and another one of his son in laws and it ended up being a good lesson he also said he would come to church on Sunday.

Then Sunday happened and neither of the people came to sacrament meeting so thats a dud but then we had our regular church and we brought this dude the sacrament and after that we visited a social media referral in Texico and had a really good lesson with him he said he had a cool experience with finding the church ad then with us contacting him. He seemed kinda surprised to see us at the door but we had a good lesson. We'll visit him next week and hopefully get him to church some time.

Well that was the last few days hopefully this week’ll be interesting. Anyway see you later til then

再見

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.

After that we visited some members who are pretty cool then we had a lesson with someone who we just started teaching again.

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 ...
