| Office Birthday traditions!
Hey so cool that you could go to women's conference with all them. Yes I know Sister Robison. She is doing well! She is training another American sister... remember you told me about someone that came up to you in the Park City ward and talked to you about Mexico City South Mission, yeah that was her... the missionary that Sister Robison is training. cool! Yes, all is well here this week! Time is flying by! I will send you some pictures and write the descriptions! Love you all! Any questions?
(The following is an email conversation I had with McKay that I'm including because it shows the ups and downs and how tough a mission is, contrast to last weeks letter)
Mom, I wish you were here with me right now. I am sitting here crying... I fell so alone. I am trying so hard to love my companions and help them, but nothing I do is satisfying them. I try to help with simple tasks, but then they just get mad, and don't talk to me. One hasn't talked to me in a week. Mom I am crying, this is so weird... what do I do?
(I'm asking him if something else is going on, tired, sick, stress?)
No, nothing else... I finished fin de mes, and my reports, and things are going really well in the area with investigators and members... that's what I just don't understand..... but now it is in the lords hands and the lords time line.
Mom this is hard... but it is so worth it. I love my savior Jesus Christ, and I know he lives. He lives and loves me... I know that. there is no doubt about it. It feels terrible. I am trying so so so hard, but I think you are right... its up to the Lord now. I have studied President Monson's talk and Uchtdorfs talk to try and figure out a solution, but whatever I do seems to make it worse somehow. I am going to turn it over to the lord, this is his work and his glory. I love him dearly and I trust in him. Thanks mom! I love you so much! You have always been here for me. Don't worry about me. I am alright, I just broke down for a minute there.
the Mormon messages saved me.
and the talks by monson and uchtorf from Sunday's session!
Love you soooooo much mom!

I have two companions... Torres and Guerrero. Thanks mom, I am going to head out to eat in the area (at least we eat with my favorite hermana... ALICIA) :) hahaha But I will be back here at about 4.... I would love to hear something from you and dad, because I love you both, and trust you! I love you so much. If we do the call Sunday I can do it any time between 6 and 8 Mexico time, but I have to leave the office at nine Mexico time... yes google hangout! What do you think... what time?
