WEEK 100

Such a great week. Here are the highlights —

- WORK
The work has been going super well here.  We met a family last week and put their three kids on date for the 14th! The parents want to be baptized too but we gotta get the dad divorced from his first wife and then get the parents of the three kids married. That'll take a while but hopefully it'll happen soon. We have three other couples who want to get baptized but we need all of them to get married first. They definitely will all get baptized. Most likely in June.

- BAPTISM
On Saturday, we were able to go back to my old area, Tizayuca, for the baptism of Alondra. About six months ago, I was able to baptize her sister in Tizayuca and so they invited us back so I could baptize Alondra too. It was cool seeing so many people that I knew and getting to say good bye to a lot of them. I also got to see a sister missionary return home who served in my last zone with me.  It was super nice to be in Tizayuca again.

- SUNDAY
On Sunday, we had 26 people at church. It was kinda disappointing cuz we wanted more, but it's cool to see that our worst weeks are better than they used to be. I gave a talk about mothers cuz we also celebrated Mother's Day after with some food. Then we went with a family to go eat at this zoo/garden place. It was really cool. They had some animals and just a bunch of stuff to do. We had some nice roasted chicken with tortillas and potatoes. We gotta walk around for a while and just enjoy the scenery. It was super relaxing and honestly, it just helped being able to relax a lil bit. 

Hope your week was as good as mine!

Love, 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 ...

WEEK 14

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 ...
