I have been serving in Puebla.
BIG NEWS!!!! I`m..... OUT!!!!!! I have just been moved to Cuicatlan in Tehuacan!!! It is in the middle of NOWHERE so I have a phone. Haha. Oh and... I`m Senior Companion. My companion`s name is Elder Hernandez and he has a total of 3 months in his mission. This is his first area. He seems really great and still has that energy for the mission that comes standard with new elders.
My new area is 5 hours away form the offices so we pretty much just have to take care of ourselves. We actually won`t get to our area tonight. We have to take a taxi in the morning. We are at the house of our District Leader tonight. They say that there are a TON of bugs including but not limited to: Scorpions, turantulas (sp), giant mosquitos and cows. I say cows because they are as numerous as the bugs. Hahaha!!! THIS IS GOING TO BE SO GREAT!!!!
I am actually not in Puebla right now or any part there of. I am in Oaxaca (sp) which is part of the Veracruz mission except this part right here. There is a temple in Oaxaca but we can`t go. Very sad. But hey, my work is for the living.
Speaking of work for the living.... We had baptisms on Wednesday and on Sunday. Wednesday was Liliana. She has been going to church for the past 3 years and just now got baptized. That includes paying tithing for those 3 years.
Then on Sunday we baptized two kids named Jaquelin and Antonio. I went into the water with Jacky and Elder Sanchez went in with Tony. Presidente Reeves took the photo that I sent. It was right after our Stake Conference so he was there to speak and to be with the area 70, Elder Johnson, that came to speak. He was really good. The kids really enjoyed the meeting too. Liliana gave the closing prayer. Fantastic.
I am super buzzed about this change!!! I didn’t sleep much from packing and it has been a long day of travel and meeting my zone. Well... part of it. I hope I will have my mind together well enough to write more detailed things next week.
I love you all so much!! Thanks for reading and for the prayers. They really help me out. Especially with this dern language.
Elder Heath
