El SEYBO!!!‏

Wow this week has flown by!!! Ill apologize now for the annoying keyboard that wont stop capitalizing the words!! Ahh i want to smack this thing: anyways things here are going really really good and i now have a new companion named elder urbina from guatemala! He is super cool and really fun to work with: he can speak a little bit of english so my spanish is starting to take off! Yea! This new area that im in is a great place and is super clean: there are a ton of hills here however so everyday is just constant walking up and down the hills! Its enjoyable though and im sure that my leg muscles are going to grow really fast! The members here in this area are really awesome and they have a really strong ward! My companion had already put a baptismal date with a guy here named jose miguel that is 17 years old and he wants to serve a mission when he turns 18!! He is super ready to be baptized and im glad that i came here when i did so that i could have the chance to know him. We are going to have his baptism on march 2nd and the whole ward is really excited for him! We are also trying to work with his mom and sister but the mom isnt really interested and the sister is never home but we are going to keep trying. Also, every week we have to report numbers for how many lessons and stuff like that that we did during the week and elder urbina and my numbers were huge!!! Everyone was super amazed at how much we did in our first week together so hopefully we can keep up the good work and find some great people that are waiting to here the truth! Anyways ill stop for now cause im sure this is annoying to read but i love you all and hope everyone is safe and in good health!
Love
elder herring
