HOLA Familia
How are you mom? I’m good, everything is going great right now. How’s everything at home? I am sending you a package today full of things that one; I don’t need and two; the tape recorder and my camera card. Hope you like the pics and the recordingSSS. The instructions to everything is in the letter.
So nothing much has happened that’s new. My hair is short but I kind of like it. It’s pretty easy to take care of now. Two of the missionaries in my District Elder Hatch and Elder Pritchett are leaving for the Peru MTC so, tonight is their last night so, we are going to have a "missionary party.”It will be tons of fun. Yesterday I did a TE with my companion. It’s like a practice teaching with people who volunteer to be investigators. We spoke the whole lesson in Spanish!!!! It was awesome! It’s unbelievable how much the Lord blesses you and how much the Spirit really does guide you and tell you exactly what that person needs in their life. I am so blessed to be here. I also want to thank you for the package. I love it! My roommates already love my mom.( ha, ha ) I am so grateful to have a family as I do. I have learned so much about being patient with people and giving them the benefit of the doubt. It’s amazing to look at yourself and see how you can change instead of pointing the finger and telling people they need to change.
So, visa’s are becoming easier to get for Mexico so, that’s really good news to everyone going to Mexico. We got a new teacher and she’s from Mexico. It’s kind of hard to understand her but it’s getting a ton better. We had a sub from Argentina and she spoke sooooo fast I sat there with a dumb look on my face wondering if I just pooped myself or if I had drool coming out of my mouth. It was ridiculous! But most likely I will be headed to Mexico on the 28th. Weeks are going by so fast. It’s crazy how fast 3 weeks have already gone by. I miss you all a lot. But, I know this is where I’m supposed to be. The talks that have been giving at each devotional Tuesday and Sundays nights are always awesome and it’s like they are talking directly to me. Bednar spoke about some missionaries questioning; Is it the spirit talking to them or just they are making it up. And he said we as missionaries need to stop worrying all the time. If we are doing what’s right and obeying our covenants then we will be given the things we need. It was an awesome talk. You know he has kicked 2 missionaries out of his house??? Because, they were there too long .And where not about the work but, about relaxing and chilling at his house. Then they asked for referrals and he said; he would never give referrals to missionaries like them because they had stayed over too long and were not focused on the work. It sounds awful, but he did it really nice. It is not our time to wait around for things to be done but, to act now and be the missionaries on the Lords time. I am so thankful for you all. I love all of you. Know I am safe and sound and that I love being a missionary but I am still the half-black corky Chad. Ha love you all,
Your Elder Anderson
