Week in a flast

Hola familia,

This week went by way quickly and I think each week it goes by faster and faster. I love the work of the Lord. The church is true. Theres no doubt about it. Miracles happen. Lives are changed. Blessings are received and eternal families are made by living the gospel. There is no other work more important.

We had a great zone meeting last Monday. Everyone got way pumped up and were excited to work. HOWEVER, just about everything that you could imagine went wrong as far as acheving the zone goals for the week. We reached our goals, but the zone didn`t do so hot. This next week we have a bunch of baptisms and confirmations so we are happy. Just pray that everything goes well for Ecatepec this week.

I have been dying every morning from the coldness. I put on my beanie and a sweater and sweat pants to study. I never imagined Mexico to be so cold. It`s basically just in the morning and late at night. I dont remember last year being so cold, but it`s all good. Usually during the day it heats up.

Talking to Elder Francis yesterday it was crazy to think that half of the change is already gone. That means in 3 weeks I`ll have a new comp. As a zone leader it`s pretty easy to see who`s going to be your next comp. My next comp could be either Elder Garcia or Elder McNinch. Elder McNinch was also trained by Elder Obregon like 4 months before I got on the mish so that would be cool. As a zone leader it`s kinda hard to have a bad comp so thats nice.

Next week we could possibly have 4 baptisms, but 1 for sure. Her name is Marisol. She is way tight. Her mom and sister-in-law are members and we might baptize her brother also this week. She`s like 25. This week she made us green enchiladas and they were sooooo good. I love seeing the peoples`lives change. Marisol went to jail, did drugs, had a terrible teenage life with lots of problems. Now, she just loves church and learning about the gospel. She loved Stake Conference this last week and said she learned a lot. (I also loved it)

Well I gotta get going cause we are having a zone activity. We are going bowling and ice skating and putt putt golfing. It`s going to be tight.

Thanks for your love and support. The church is true. Have a great week everyone!

Con amor,
Elder Greg Heap
