Last E-mail - What I have learned in Mexico! (Semana 96)

we climbed up the Cerro de Silla
Well just so y'all know this might very well be the last email I will write here on the mission.  I don't go home yet but I probably won't be able to write next week because of the transfers.

This week we had some intercambios on Tuesday to help out a companionship out in Fundidora. I went with Elder Arias to their area. It was actually pretty sweet because we taught some pretty good lessons and also ate some carne asada with some people in the street that invited us! 
On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday we had to work quite a bit in the offices which was good.  Surprisingly, we were still able to get some work done in our area with what little time we had.  We are working with a girl named Daniela and her mom Beatriz. They are doing really well and hopefully will get baptized on Saturday!  We also are teaching a few other people that are doing super great and will hopefully keep progressing these next few weeks.

Well I've been here in Mexico for 2 years now and it has been AMAZING! It has honestly been the best years of my life and I have learned so much! 
Here are some of the things I have learned while serving my Father in Heaven and the great people of Mexico:

1. I have learned to LOVE México - I have come to love all things Mexican!  The language, the people, the food, the music, the culture....
2. I have learned how important prayer is and how much earnest prayer helps in all times of our life.
3. I have really understood that I am a child of God and that He really does love me and YOU!  I have felt His love for others during my associations here.
4. I know that Jesus Christ is my Savior, that He really suffered and died for me and my sins.
5. I have learned the importance of doing the small and simple things like praying, reading the scriptures, and going to church. That they really do make ALL the difference.
6. I have learned that the Book is Blue and the Church is True! The Book of Mormon is true, and by reading it we will draw closer to God!

7. Finally, I have learned that I can do hard things through Christ the Lord.
