Tijuana!

Well, here I am in T.J.

Craziest place in the world.They have really loud music, half finished houses as far as the eye can see, I haven't really seen any grass, and crazy buses called calafias. Despite how the city looks and everything, I have found the people to be awesome! They are so faith filled. Everyone believes in God and I have not been in one house that did not have a picture of the Savior
(usually the last supper). Even the calafias. More downtown. T.J. has a huge statue of Christ and on mountains nearby there are gospels references or big crosses. People seem really willing to let us in and share a message, the biggest problems is compromisos (Commitments). Last week, however, we had two investigator families at church and a Young Women who is a friend of a recent convert and has been progressing really well.

I have never felt like a little kid more in my life than I do now, not even when I was a little kid. The language is really fast and I can't really comprehend anything and can only speak simple sentences. I love the people though and I am told that when your having a hard time on your mission it is because there is something right around the next corner!
