Primero--¡FELICIDADES A MI PRIMO TORBJOR! Looks like the Anderson fam is going to convert all of México if we keep up this trend.
Bueno, pues, esta semana...
Nothing super exciting happened, but it was fun and fulfilling nonetheless. I had the opportunity to give a talk in church on Sunday, we had a fun zone activity where we ate tacos and pizza, we shoved each others faces in cake to celebrate Hna. Moncada´s last week in the mission, and we found a mariachi band in the street. But my favorite experience this week was while we were out tracting. It was late in the evening and we were exhausted from walking all day. We had one more address to find, but it seemed as though it didn´t exist. You have to understand that the addresses here in México are ridiculous. It´s the name of the street and a number...nada más. And more often than not, the numbers have absolutely no pattern or reason. The street we happened to be in this evening was extremely long. Halfway down the street we debated going somewhere else, but something told me to keep going, because you never know who might just be in the last house at the end of the street. We made it to the very last house on the street, and the spray-painted number wasn´t very clear. The front door was open so we decided to ask. The person we were originally searching for didn´t live there, but the woman invited us in anyway and we had an amazing lesson. Later in the week, we returned to visit her, and her daughter and son happened to be home too. We taught about the Restoration and were able to bear powerful testimonies of Joseph Smith and the First Vision. They all accepted baptismal dates and are now preparing to be baptized this next month.
I know with all my heart that this is the true church of God. This work isn´t always easy, but so very rewarding. I don´t always feel adequate to do what the Lord has called me to do, but I know he will never ask us to do something in which we are not qualified. I love this work and I love my Heavenly Father and Savior, Jesus Christ.
I hope you all have a wonderful week and don´t forget to read your scriptures and say your prayers.
Les quiero muchisimo,
