Tell me about the sister that cooks for you guys. What's her name, what does she usually cook and about how much do you pay her?
Describe some of the homes you visit your investigators in.
Is everyone pretty humble there, or do you get to visit with people with means as well?

Tell me about some of the members in the wards you get to work with or have gotten to know. Names and what are they like?
How about the Bishops?
Tell me about your zone conferences? What have you learned and have you heard from any general authorities?
Oh man its great here people are all diferent but as a misionary you start caring about people and see them as children of heavenly father. As well the scenery is awesome it basically really dirty city straight into jungle some peoples back yards you should see. Its a risk taking our cameras to our area but one of these days I will. The guy that robbed us didnt do anything he was just really drunk started throwing up gang signs and asked us for money we didnt know if hre had a gun on him but we didnt want to find out it was 5 quets which is about 70 cents he wanted 10 dollars american but we were like we dont car dollars. He left after that no problem we fist bumped and everything. Our cocinera is hma Sacaida she makes good food like chicken, soup, noodles, beans and rice whatever it pretty varied. we pay her 15 quetz a day (2 bucks) that is a worked out deal across the whole mission. becaus some time we eat in other areas like the zone leaders. Holmes are varied to depends where exactly we are like colonies like 8 de marzo, la joya, Acentamiento are poor. But others are nice two stories brick walls. Basically everyone has tin roofs so when its raining hard we cant teach because no can hear anyone. That isnt a big problem but it happens. Not eveyone is humble no but alot are. Thats not the problem because we can basically get into any house we want but everyone and thier dog son evangelicos. One of the most exciting things was probably when i got off the bus and my copm didnt and i had to run after it untill the next stop he didnt even know. The common form of entertainment for us is the drunks though. There is something always going on with them. We only have one ward in our area the people are great Some families like familia lopez are pilas Hmo always helps us out. another would be familia Xec The parents are fun and two son Oliver who is 28 and alex who is 23. The both arent married and is doesnt look like it is happening soon. We like to molestarles about being chambones. Alex knows alot of english and asks me about american culture. That actually is something i get asked alot And i have noticed that we have alot of things that these people dont . Like one of our recent converts Conrado he is 60 something doesnt have a job cant find one and barely getsa along, yes ward members help him but he doesnt have social security or any real support. He has family but only one of his daughters help him out. Just something i was thinking about. Our bishop is awesome he is pretty young though just barely 30 but he gets stuff done loves us and likes to have us over. He says the last 2 or three companionships havent been as hardworking as us. I have had one zone conference it was with the four city zones but no general authorities, it was awesome i learned alot. alright mom thats all for this week love you and thankyou for everything love hearing about the family and everything. Write to you next week.
To Dad (the token sentence):
Its all god but I am doing good trying to stay healthy and everthing nothing much to write right now but love you and thanks for everthing.
