hola madre,
                   hey i think that Dearelder site works as far as my mission goes.... its pretty cool if it does :p im doing pretty good this week, Well we have quite alot of investigators in our teaching pool... we had 4 dates as of last friday, but now we only have two.. one  expired.. or didnt come to church and the other one just agreed to be baptised on the 23rd of april and then his wife visited from mexico and shut down everything.... but interestingly enuff ... the couple that came to church is an older couple WITHOUT a baptismal date lol go figure huh? well they are one set of two "projects" we have this week.. they are Maria and Carlos Caro.. and they have a daughter who is somewhere between 20 and 30 who has her own daughter that all live together.. her name is Carla... (we think... they call her Carlita.. and we can never remember the babies name) but her husband is studying somewhere .... or at leas thats what i heard them say (remember that all this is in spanish.. lol) but ya Carla seems as interested as her mom and dad but couldnt go to the church this weekend.. but we are going to try teaching the more this week and getting them to understand that they need to be baptised by someone holding the proper authority. and once they understand that (and i think we have taught that lesson three times in different ways.{incuding this last sundays' lession which was on preisthood authority} but it doesn't seem to have sunken in yet.) but besides them there is Jos'e who just needs to go to church .. and then there is rene'e who just needs to go to church and Hector who just needs to become legal in order to legally marry his wife and then they can be baptised and then there is ruben and magdalina like maria magdalina (mary magdaline) lol and there son David (who is a few years older then us and is nice to us but doesn't seem to be interested) and there probably some of our newest almost progressives but he couldn't make it to church this week. but we eat with him yesterday night for our break the fast.. can i just say that.. FAST FOOD IS NOT MEXICAN FOOD ... it doesnt even come close.. like mexican food here is hot but it's better than a stinkin Dr Pepper for tastes.... there is seriously not a good enuff word for flavor to decscribe REAL mexican food... except maybeeeeee a plethera of flavors ( and all good flavors at that) I can't even tell you what we ate.. there was beans (refried with cheese) meat (ribs sausage and flanksteak{i think flank} from right off the barby and some kind of spicy salada that didnt have fruits or any kind of lettuce in it and tortillas.. and we would rip the tortillas put allittle of everything (usually only one kind of meat at a time) on at once and that was a bite.. lol (but i cant even tell you what we ate ... lol so just imagine everything i just explained but at least 10 times beter than i explained it) well thats pretty much how things have been this since i came out.. we have other investigators and possibles and we find more everyday... but i guess ill leave you with that last visual for today... here is my favorite scripture for no other reason than i love the visual and have always tryed to put myself in the shoes of the servent of the man of god. 2kings 6:14 hasta 17
14Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
 15And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
 16And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
 17And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his aeyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and bchariots of fire round about Elisha.
