man, so much has happened in a week. To sum it up, all is going great, the church is true, the book is blue, and i love you!
For starters, Elder Womack and I have not changed companions, but we have changed areas and houses. we are now in an area called Riberas, and it is the most northern part of the city of Chihuahua. its so so far out in the boonies, but thats ok! the church is still true, and we will be getting to work. Actually, we have been and this week we have done our best to contact tons of people and we found 2 new families we are excited to get to teach. the house is small, like were talking a two room house, and though it is brand new, that still doesnt exclude the visit from a cricket or a cockroach every once and a while.
having 12 missionaries is so wild and crazy! i feel so sorry for Sister morales, the one in charge of coordinating the food appointments for us. haha it has been nuts but i know that all will be well, at least for the month of may. we have split it into 2 districts.
General conference was amazing! i will comment and share more insights i had in next weeks letter (so stay tuned!) but know that i loved it and really, know that this conference meant more to me than any other conference, and i think that has a lot to do with being here in the mission, that i am becoming a better and stronger disciple of christ, so in conference my eyes were opened up differently.
I testify that this Church is the only church on the planet with the authority to act in the name of Jesus Christ, and that living the gospel is what helps build up the kingdom of god here on earth. Living the Gospel WILL bring greater happiness and blessings in our lives and families, and that every single principle and point of doctrine has been revealed to us one way or another by our master Jesus Christ, and it is through him that we will be able to achieve exhaltation and make it back to the presence of our HeavenlyFather someday.
I love you all and wish you a good week! take luck and good care :)
love,
jason
