Week 19: Corn Basket Workout

Hola Familia y Amigos!

The Lord is blessing us here in Macuiltepetl 2! We have found so many people interested in the gospel and we have seen so many miracles here too. It's funny because the rejections are a tad bit harder than they were in Tihuatlan but the good people we find are so much better as well. It's like when we deal with the harder rejections the Lord is preparing us for the people that are ready to hear our mesaje. He has a plan for us and the challenges are sometimes just the way to prepare us for the doors we will be opening in the future. So awesome.

This week we did a little service project out in the boonies of Veracruz cutting down corn for a member in our ward. My hands still hurt and Elder Gonzalez got bit by a spider and we don't know which one it was. I think we have eliminated Black Widow though. But yeah had to carry this big wooden basket on our backs and it was like going to the gym for 3 weeks. There also happened to be a waterfall on the way back that we stopped at and grabbed a few pics. It was a pretty good day.

Again this week we saw the joy that the gospel brings to peoples lives. The life here in the city is a lot faster and a lot more stressful and we have seen that many people have been just holding on to their jobs and their responsibilities and are relieved and helped when they find our message of peace and joy.

Not much more to report on this week!! Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!! 

Love and miss you all!
Elder Anderson
