so these are some of the pictures that I wanted to send the are as you can see of me and the Mission President and his wife and, my new Companion Elder Silbus and also an Elder that just went home.



I have been transferred to Vancouver with Elder Silbus. He is a really good missionary and he is also Zone leader, but I am not. He has two companions one for language work and the other for zone work.
So a sad story my first full day here in Vancouver I smashed my finger in the car door. It hurt! but I am still able to use it, so no worries.

THE POST WILL BE OFF STRIKE TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am looking forward to all the mail that I will get in surrey but if I don't it's ok. I know that my family loves me!!!!!!

I am getting told that I am doing really well with the Spanish and that I sound like I'm from El Salvador, to me that is big. I know that it is only through the Lords help that it is possible.

26 June, 2011 catchup on updates day.

Sorry everyone I am working so much and so long of hours at the current time I have not found a moment to update so here are the updates for the last 2 weeks.

Sorry I didn't E-mail yesterday the reason for that is I went to the Temple today and I got back to Surrey not to long ago. so I don't have much time the Library will be closing in an hour or 2. so my week thus far.... We had two member lessons yesterday and they went really well. They were both with new investigators. One is from Mexico and the other is from Columbia. They both have nice families.

So as I have told Daddy, I am able to understand a little more at church. The Spanish is coming at times slower than I would like.

OHHH funny story last Sunday we had diner at a members home and we took some pictures and I said something funny I was tiring to say my turn ( mi me toca ) but I said touch me ( toca me ) so as you can probably imagine every one started to laugh. well I want to send some pictures so you have them.
