11 December 2013


 Hi family,

There hasn't really been anything of note in the last couple of days. Mostly I'm writing to tell you that for once in my life I haven't had changes, so I get to stay in Palermo, Progreso for another six weeks. Yes!

But they are opening another area in my ward, so I'm losing half of my area, which is kind of killing me. We're going to have four sisters and two Elders in the ward. Almost all the wards here have four to six missionaries. There are still a few with only two missionaries, but there is also at least one branch that has eight missionaries! It's crazy how things have changed here since I arrived.

Last night my comp and I taught our first English class. A lot of the youth in the ward came. We're going to have to do some work to advertise better so that it can be a way to get new people in the church. We also are going to have to get better at teaching English. But for everything that people hope this might be, a class taught by two missionaries once or twice a week will never make someone fluent in English. Everyone just comes at such different levels. But we're doing our best to give people at least a taste of English. Many of the youth can already read and maybe speak a little. Last night we sang Silent Night in English and taught them how to pray in English. 

That's pretty much all that's new.

I love you all!
