ok, this time im trying to catch up on all the pictures... first is the
picture of my ward in mante at a ward FHE. Second is the view towards the
plaza from the other misionary`s apartment. next i think is all of my
generation that was at the bus depot during transfers. it was great to see
them all again, and elder varela )last picture) is in my district, i will
be going on exchanges with him. we played foot ball at the beach and that
is me and him relaxing afterward, he dove once and got torn up pretty bad.
Elder dalton and Farr were there too, it was great to have time with them.
the fiery one is the refinery at night. it is basically half of our area so
the rest is small. its a whole lot different to be in the middle of everything now. like i already knew would happen i miss mante and elder
carranza. but this area has a ward that is very much alive and well so it
will be fun to work with them.Elder parra`s other last name is perez... he
is from puebla. he has 14 months and is the District Leader. ammon is going
to s. africa... that sounds perfect for him. he will be great. my advice to
him is to read the Book of Mormon and learn to love it. and when he gets in
the mission to hold on to what they teach you in the MTC until you can use
it as a senior companion. anyway i really dont have any really good advice,
yes i did see sean... we is doing fine and is still sean. we talk for a bit
but it is still just the same with him. he is excited about the work he is
now in a small town named tuxpan, its in veracruz.anyway that is all i have
to say. im getting to know my area and getting used to my new role.
i love you all.
take care
