2nd Semana in the Field!

Wow, I can not believe I have been out here for 2 weeks! It`s seems like just yesterday that I was dropped of at the air port. It`s crazy to me that it has still gone so fast even though sometimes days seem so long. The days are still the same here in the CCM, we learn all day. I go to sleep every night feeling like my head is going to explode, yet the wierdest part is it`s apsolutely amazing! I love it! Español is quite a ride. I would explain it a lot like the white roller coaster. Ups and downs the whole time :) But it`s good! It`s hard to not get discouraged sometimeswith Español because sometimes I just wish I could completely understand and speak it, but then I remember how far I`ve come. This seems to happen a lot in life. We get discouraged because we haven`t made, but it`s important for us to remember the steps we have taken to get where we are. Yes improvement is esential, but we can take it 1 day at a time. Sorry about that ramble, it was probably more for me then any one else.

I truly do love it out here! I don`t have a whole lot of cool things to tell you, but I will say that I know God is real and he is aware of each of us! He loves us all and wants to bless us. Whether we can recieve those blessings is up to us and our obedience. 

Now I`m going to try to thing about some things you might be cerious about...

Food:

It`s actually really good! I have eaten basically everything. It is a little different, but It`s not bad. Also I am still just in the CCM, so we will see what happens when I get to Honduras. 

Well... I´m sorry, but I can´t thing of anything exciting other then food haha. Oh, one elder in my new district is going to play football for the university of Wyoming when he gets home. His name is Elder Hughes. 

I love you all! I truly mean that with all my heart. I want you all to know that I send my love, and as a representative of Jesus Christ I send his and God´s love as well! I know that they love us all so much that we can´t even imagine! Please don´t ever forget that! 

"God so loved the world he gave his only begotten son." 

For any father (or mother), you understand the sacrifice. For any one whose not a father or mother, you can imagine. In one of the Devotionals we watched Elder Holland said, "God sent the highest on the ladder to die so the lowest on the ladder could live." I know this is true! I am so grateful to God and our blessed brother Jesus Christ and there Sacrafice so that I could repent and be here. And know as a representative of Christ it is my duty to cry all kindred tounge and people to repentance and to be Baptized on his name so we all can be forgiven of our sins. What a blessing it is! 

Let´s try this again now, I love you all! Have a fantastic week!

Primer Semana y Primer Transfer

Hola everybody! I am doing awesome! I love being a missionary. Honestly it is the best thing in the world. I am so happy! I have never fetlt the Espiritu Santo (Holy Ghost) so strong! It is amazing. 

As for Guatamala CCM (MTC), it`s good, but I don`t feel a whole lot different. We hardly ever get to go outside, which is hard. But we are super busy. I just feel like I`m at a summer camp of some sort right now, but I`m sure that will change. 

My daily schedule is basically;

Wake UP
Play sports
Get ready for day
Eat 
Study and learn
Eat 
Study and Learn
Eat 
Study and Learn
Snack
Meatings
Go to bed.

As boring as it sounds it`s incredible! I am exousted, but I`m so happy, and I know this is where I need to be and I know this is where God wants me to be. I am here to submit my will to the Lords and Sacrafice everything for him and the people he loves and the people I am going to love!

When I first got here I was put into a trio with Elder Hancock and Elder Wood! Throughout the first week I came to really love them and love the people in my district. In my district we had Elder Meis who is so funny! (Mostly because he is one of those people who have such a strange personality that just makes you laugh). But with that said he works super hard. Elder pututou who is signed as a linebacker for the University of Utah. Elder Reeve. He is such a super sincere nice guy. Elder Maynez, who was my travel companion and carries such a strong spirit and has a strong testimony. Elder Jensen, who is also a super nice hardworking guy. Elder Olsen who works harder then anyone I`ve ever met. And then we have to Hermana`s (Sisters) Hermana Grifis and Hermana Harris. They work really hard on there Espanol and it seems like they almost never speak english even though Espanol is so hard. I love my District Santiago, yet yesterday I was told I would have a new companion and a new Distric. So today I move to District Pablo. I was pretty sad at first, but I know everything happens for a reason.

I know the church is True! I know that God loves each and every one of us!

PS. I can`t send pictures while I am here at the CCM... Sorry
