Monday- Pday. We played some soccer and made tacos over in Cipo 2. We then did some service. We cleared out a lot of weeds and and then burnt them. It was like every boy scouts dream- burning everything
Tuesday- We were in the pension all day because Elder Saldivar hurt his back.
Wednesday- We had interviews with President. so that was good. It went well. Once again we stayed in the pension. The other Elders came by and we gave him a blessing.
Thursday- We went out to work for a couple hours. We talked with Orlando in the street. Set up an appointment for Tuesday. Tried Victor but he wasn't home. Then we went to try a recent convert but he was leaving.
Friday- We had mission correlation today. Once again stayed in the pension.
Saturday- We did English class. That was pretty funny listening to one of the kids pronouncing words. We tried going to the Dr but they were closed.
Sunday- We had 38 people at church today. And in the night we had ward council so that was good. We stayed in the pension.
This week I had a lot of time to study. One thing I focused on was the Atonement. And our Savior's sacrifice for us.
But also I watched this video and I really like it. It is about obedience. Sin will always be sin. It doesn't matter if the world legalizes it. Are we doing everything we can to be completely obedient to the commandments of the Lord?

1. It's almost FALL there...can you tell it is cooling down? On Friday your high will be 73...I bet that will feel like heaven! Have the trees started to change color yet?
its been a little cooler but it is still super hot. haha. 73 I can't wait. The trees are all still green
2. What is the most interesting thing you have learned this week?
I have been reading a lot in Jesus the Christ. I have like 100 pages left. I just got through the chapter that talks about the trial of Christ. And I just find it interesting that everything they did was illegal according to their law. The whole trial was illegal. It was interesting to read that and learn about that
