Family and friends,
It's been a while!! Crazy new updates!!! Not much time haha.
I will need to send pictures next week if I can. But recently we had a baptism for Neysi, quickest one I've ever had! She is from Panama, moved into Florida about a year ago and had read the Bible twice during the time she's been here. We met her, she read the entire Book of Mormon in about two weeks and we baptized her a couple weeks ago. And Nuong is on date for later this February. The issue with her is her parents not letting her progress since they don't want her to switch Religions. They only speak Vietnamese so that's a challenge. It's just been a crazy few weeks, I've had like no time on pdays! Lots of lessons and having to get other things set up. I even went to Utah for a bit to get travel arrangements figured out for *drum roll* MEXICO!!!
That is right. Tomorrow morning I am headed back to Mexico City to finish my mission there for the last six months or so of my mission. It's sad leaving Florida. I've been training my new companion, Elder Torres, who arrived from Puerto Rico a couple weeks ago. He's fresh and ready to go! He's never really been to the U.S. before but he is excited. I hope the new trainer will do him well.
It feels weird going back to Mexico City. But I know it's all been part of the Lord's plan! He's known it all along. I'm headed out tomorrow morning around 11:00. I'll give more updates next week!! Thank you all for your prayers and support!!!!!
