1/30/2012       “My 1 Year Mark”……(Wow! It’s gone by fast…)



Hey Momma,

 Sorry we had to go and pay the water bill so, that is why we are late emailing…..I see Elder Hadley a ton in Leon. He is secretario finacero (secretary of finance) which means he deals with all the money in the mission. But, I do see him a ton and yes we are still good friends. Also Elder Monson is with my kid right now which is the guy I trained. I miss my old companions a ton. They are some great guys…..

I will answer your questions.

 Ok, this area is kind of hard. There isn’t a ton of people to teach so guess what that means?....... knocking doors. Ha ha but, it’s all good. We have had success.  And I hope we might have 2 bautismos(baptism) in the week that’s coming up so, that will be good.  I am good momma so , do not worry about me. I am good physically and mentally. I have been growing a lot and learning a ton. I am trying to become a better person every day. My house is pretty cool it’s an apartment and it’s huge. But, to clean it… well  it sucks…..  My area is really safe so don’t worry momma.  I truly am protected. I like my companion.  I am helping him to learn things and that’s helping us a lot. I like my district but, there are problems here so, I am trying to fix the problems because this area has a ton of problems.  But that’s the work. I forgot my camera because we paid the water  so, I left it behind at the casa.  I will not be able  to send you pictures this time. Sorry next week for sure OK?

 How’s my momma?

About my companion  well at least my companion wants to work and that is great. It is only the two of us missionaries living there in our big apartment. But, it’s really nice. I feel so spoiled… It is the best place yet…. It gets really cold in the nights here but, the hermanas (sisters) gave us cobijas(blankets) that are thick so, it keeps us warm.

What I did for my 1 year mark....ha ha.  I burnt a shirt then I went to Carl’s. Jr for dinner and then to Chiles for dessert.....hahaha it was goooooooooood!!!!! Yeah, honestly I miss my old comps a ton. But, we still write each other so, that is good that we stay in contact….  Elder Monson took my place in Leon. Remember I was in the MTC with him. He is right now with my kid (the guy I trained. )         My clothes are great and well my shoes I got them repaired. They do some great work around here so, I should have these shoes until I end the mission. That’s my hope anyways.  Thanks for everything you do. I will make sure to send you a ton of pictures next week.  Have a great week. I love you

tu hijo,

Elder Anderson
