México City... the land of freezing cold temperatures????

¡Hola todos! I hope you all are having a great week so far!!!

México City is an incredible place! One day it is beautiful clear skies, around 75 to 80 degrees, and just perfect. And then you have yesterday, where it was around 40 degrees and cold rain all day..... and I thought Kansas was crazy!

This week has been pretty good! I gave a talk over the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in Spanish! I did not know I was giving said talk until the middle of church. Don't worry, I prepared anyways lol.

And perhaps the highlight of my week was being able to spend the day with a Latino district of missionaries. In the CCM here in México, Americans are in there own district with each other as they try to learn the basics of español. However, since I have already studied it for 2 years before, my teachers decided they would let me spend a day with some Latino élderes to see how it would go.... 

IT WAS AMAZING!!! I had a real great and spiritual time with Élder Lopez (de Chihuahua, México)  y Élder Donoso (de Santiago, Chile). Most of the Spanish speakers cannot pronounce my last name, so it was fun to see their faces as they tried to read my name tag LOL!

And I have been told that I may be put into an all Latino district next week, with a fluent spanish speaker as my new companion. ¡Qué genial!

I went to the temple again this week, and it was even better than the last time! The House of the Lord is such a special place to come closer to our Father in Heaven!!

Anyways, that is all the news and excitement I have for today. But I will be sending out my pictures here shortly. I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!! Thank you for your prayers and support. It warms my heart and makes me smile so much when I read your emails. Pues, ¡Nos hablemos a la próxima jueves!
