Called To Serve: Week Eleven: week 5?

im pretty sure that i have 5 weeks here, but im not really sure to be honest haha time is both fast and slow in the mission, its crazy.

This week was pretty successful! we are getting more and more progressing investigators, but no one came to church so were going to have to work on that. i want to tell you guys about everyone were teaching and how they are doing, but i just dont have the time! i guess its sufficcient to say that we have a lot of work to do and a lot of peole to work with and thats good!

I dont have any crazy stories this week, but i think its because the crazyness of mexico is just normal now. whenever something weird happens i just kind of shrug it off and say ok, i guess thats normal here, and then move on with whatever im doing. The only good story i have is from last week. my companion (Elder Nolasco) was asking one of the elders from my district from the mtc if he had a green bag inside the mission offices. he said, "¿mochilla verde?" which means "green bag?" and the elder from my mtc district said "oh yeah! muy delicioso!" were still not really sure what he was thinking, but its all good because none of us speak spanish that well.

Yesterday we had stake conferece and got to go to the chapel next to the guadalajara temple so we got to take pictures and see it, but we wont be able to enter the temple for a while. the guadalajara temple is almost identical to the spokane temple, so it was really cool for me to realize just how constant the church is. I am thousands of miles from spokane, and yet there is a stake center and temple where the exact same things happen in the exact same manner. the church is true people!
