WEEK 36

Hey all! We've been crazy busy here in Actopan. There's so much work to be done. Last I checked, we walked fifteen miles a day so we can share the gospel message with as many people as we can. Here are some highlights from my week —

- HOME EVENING
We have 3 FHE's every week and they're super fun. This week we had a lot of people show up, so that was really cool. We usually have a few activities there. One activity we did is where someone has to be blindfolded and walk through chairs with the help of another person — demonstrating how to have faith. An old lady volunteered to do it, but when she took off the blindfold, she got super dizzy and passed out. Luckily our primary president was there and caught her. But all the little kids were dying laughing.

- FRIENDS
We have a ton of people progressing. Our friend, Shalom, was unfortunately hiding everything from her parents. When they found her Book of Mormon, they threatened to kick her out. But she still wants to learn. We can't meet in person so we are just doing phone calls for now. Hopefully her parents will change their minds.

- TRANSFERS
Transfers happened!! No big news here. I'm with the same comp as before, Elder Beddeke. But now our zone leaders will be living with us, so that's pretty fun. Elder Berquist, my trainer, is our zone leader so he is living with us now. Basically, I've lived with him for my whole mission.

Hope your week was as good as mine!

Love and miss you all!
- Elder Fuller

WEEK 96

Alright, Imma start this week off complaining and then I'll get to the good parts — - WATER, POWER & GAS Monday-Wednesday, we had absolutely no water in our house. We had to shower with water bottles and honestly, it felt pretty weird. Once we finally got water, then we lost gas. It's so freakin' cold here in the mornings and it was so much worse with freezing cold water. Luckily by Friday, we had gas. On Thursday, we lost power, so we went without any electricity for 2 days and it kinda sucked cuz there was no where to charge our phones. Then on Saturday and Sunday, we got to watch general conference. We don't have a church here so one sister gave us her tv and another, their computer. We used our hot spot to put on general conference and right after the last session, we lost the last bit of our data. We used so much data streaming general conference and now we got no data for 2 more weeks. There's not a single member here with wifi so now we gotta go 2 weeks w...

Had a great week! Here are the highlights — - ZONE CONFERENCE We had our Christmas Zone Conference. It was the best zone conference I've been to. They had a Christmas program so we heard a bunch of Christmas stories and sang a bunch of songs. After, we played a bunch of games and broke a piñata. We had secret santas and I got a poncho that I now wear to bed every night cuz it's freakin cold here! Our mission president gave everyone gifts and then I got some from my parents. - NAVIDAD It was super cool to spend my last Christmas here in Mexico. I was in a trio so it felt kinda weird but it was super fun! We honestly did nothing for Christmas day but Christmas Eve, we went to a member's house and played a bunch of soccer. Then  I had to check in with all the companionships in my zone, but after, we had pasole! We finished by playing one of the most intense games of Uno I have ever played. We prolly got home at like 11:30 and talked for 30 minutes. At midnight, when Christmas ...

I reached a milestone this week...3 months as a missionary. Here are some of the highlights —  - SERVICE This week we had another service project. This lady wants to start a garden in her backyard, but first we needed to clean it out. It had bushes and long grass covering the entire space. Also, there were probably 1000 grasshoppers. Every plant or blade of grass we pulled had at least a few on them. There were tons of spiders and other insects. We spent two hours just pulling bushes and grass and got about ¾ of the way done with her backyard. We are going back on Tuesday to finish the backyard and to do the front yard. After we were done, we stayed for lunch and the lady gave us soggy pig skin to eat. The sisters hated it. I wasn't a fan either but the sisters would just throw their food onto our plates when the lady wasn't looking so we ended up having to eat far more than our share. - GENERAL CONFERENCE General conference was so good this week. I couldn't understand all ...
