July 26th Letter

yeah mom i am in another area. its called muzcis. it kind of reminds me of home. it has alot of trees and a river. it not the city anymore. i like the area but i miss the members of the other ward. i felt so homesick when i left. it was so hard. but i getting use to it. i havent really been in my area bc im the district leader and ive been in the areas of my district. so things are doing good. my zone leaders are the first two white kids i knew in the mission, so it helps me bc i was already good friends with them. so it gave me someone i know. my comp is from mexico. name is elder guerra. he is cool. tommorrow me and the zone leaders are going to another place about 3 hours away for a conferencia and we will be there for three days so i wont be in my area this week either. but how are u guys. im still waiting on pics and stuff. but i hope all is well. i completed 16 months yesterday. time goes by fast. i love you mom. i have to go.

this week we had no baptismes. had some people in the church tho. so there is teaching to do. this week i have been so sick. its been raining for a week straight. a hurricane hit here. en monterrey its very bad. water destroying houses and highways and there is water over there. its bad. im in saltillo and nothing has really happened here. just rain. im getting ready for a change. im just really comfortable here. its really like my house.and the big family that we bap. has been getting me mad. im not afraid to say something. and they wont leave us alone. like i love them but they get mad when we are with another family and stuff. the mom treats us like babies and i hate it. like right now im writing u and she wants me to get off so i can go eat and we just ate and it gets me mad. thats why im so fat. satan is working so hard. but anways the mission is great in all forms. alot of blessing and alot of memories, even though i dont remember alot of things. my brain doesnt work very well.lol. but hopefully well have alot of baptisms this week.maybe we can get alot of work done with this rain but anyways i have to go. love u
