Greetings from Below!! haha

Well, well, well what do we have here. Elder Frandsen and brother survived another week of the mision! doun, doun, doun ...woo hoo. Well this week we had a bit of rain and its usually just at night so i havent gotten really all that wet. Well Its good to be hearing about every body back home enjoying scout camp (oh man the good ol days) and keeping busy. Still waiting to hear the full version dad. Oh and Luke I remembered you birthday last friday after i had written and was like oh man i cant believe i forgot SO THE BIGGEST HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN THE WORLD FROM MEXICO TO LUKE THE BEST 12 YEAR OLD BROTHER I HAVE. Well then i thought usually you guys are in Utah celebrating this wonderful event but it sounds like its gonna be in a few weeks. Wellyou cant do everything. Where is it gonna be this year by the way? Say hi to every body for Clint and I.

Well Also the world cup has been going on and Mexico is in it or was in it until they lost yesterday but anyway i realized a whole new sport that i didnt really pay much attention to. Right now I have the soccer fever im telling you and i feel every bit of remorse for not having kept with it in highschool. I have taking to grabbing from these trees in the streets these little ball things like mini hardened grapes and i practice scoring goals while walking all day. Elder Rueda likes soccer too so we practice together sometimes.

We also had Presidente Velez come visit our zone the other day and got a little bit of a scolding that we arent getting the baptisms that are required. We should be getting as a goal 2 every month and shared Jacob 1:19 with us that is pretty direct and bold. Read it and meditate over what that means to you as member missionaries. 

We did however have a great experience with a person that we taught for the first time and was passing for some hard times with having a job and money and with that comes many other problems like with his family and at the beginning he was still like "sorry for being negative but it is very hard to convince me" and well all we said and could do was testify that this message is directly sent from God specifically for you and that I dont see a man that is stubborn and hard to convince but a man that loves and cares for his family and that only wants to do whats right. After that we said a prayer and then asked if we could help him in some way and he just started crying and said that no everything was fine and we just assured him that yes everything would be fine and to put your trust in the Lord. It was a humbling experience of how much God truly loves us and gave us a plan to find the happiness that lasts an eternity. 

Keep your heads held up and look for, search for, pray for the oportunities to see this happiness and then cherish it and use it as fuel to endure the trials and move on.

I love you all so much and know that this church is the church sent by God and restored today especially for us and that through the faith, the saving ordinances and fighting every day to improve we can glimpse this eternal happiness and the final goal. 

Have a wonderful and spirit filled day!!

Love elderfrandsen#1
