| Elder S (trainer) and Davis (trainee) at the Mission Home in Monterrey Mexico. |
Mexico is great! I was
assigned to the second smallest area of the mission, only about 1-2 sq miles. The
area is called Nicolas Bravo in the town San Nicolas (also the zone), It´s
only a short ways from Monterrey.
My companion´s name is Elder S and he´s all
the way from...Provo! hahaha Yea he´s
not a native but he speaks very good spanish. My spanish is, well, going. I´m
working really hard to just say as much as I can say and understand as much as
I can. I know that I´m going to have to be patient with myself, and that it
will take a couple of months, but I´m just too happy to be here and to be
working that I don´t let that get me discouraged. In Ether 12:27 it talks about
how if men bring their weaknesses unto the Lord, we will make them strengths. That
is something that is really promising to me. I try to talk to everyone we pass
by, I think that it´s important that everyone has the chance to use their god
given gift of agency to choose whether or not they want to accept and listen to
more of the glad tidings we have to offer or not. After all, men are free
according to the flesh...(2 Nephi 2:27)
That´s awesome that
Nathaniel did that well! WAY TO GO NATHANIEL YOU´RE DOING AWESOME! Tell
everyone that I´m doing awesome, and that I love being a missionary.
As for the birds, my
area is really urban so I´m not gonna see any cool birds for about 3 months. I
saw those other birds at the mission offices. The birds I have seen here that
are different are: Inca dove, Couch´s Kingbird, Great Kiskadee, and some
parrakeet sp.
Here are pictures of our
home. It´s smaller than the apt. that I stayed in at the MTC. It really just
reminds me to be very thankful for all of the things we have, like those new
cabinets hahaha. There´s also a picture of me and my companion and me eating a
campachana (really good)
I´ll
send you a letter by mail too!
I love you!
Davis
