Heading home for 6 weeks...MEXICO

Well I had to set up a blog account for one of my classes and since school is over I decided to just delete all my old assignments, start fresh, and give an update of my adventures in Mexico.  For those of you who don't know I am heading to Mexico on Friday to help open up the MTC in Distrito Federal.  I still can't believe I am going!  I really hope this trip will make me a little more legit, getting in touch with the roots.
Now the question is, what will I be doing while I am there?  Besides eating like crazy I will be teaching districts of missionaries and training the teachers who will be taking over after we leave.  Besides that I do not have any other details.  Unfortunately we have been left in the dark a bit about what we are going to be doing.  All I really know is I leave Friday.

If I am being honest I really feel so under qualified for this position.  This is going to be a bit crazy but I am going to give it my all.  The other day Ted Cook was talking to me and I told him that I was nervous.  His response, "Do you know how to feel the Spirit?  Do you believe in the Book of Mormon?  If so you'll be fine that is all you need to know."  It was simple but so profound and true.  The concepts of the Gospel really are simple, we have to have a testimony and then after that just charge forward with faith.  I am really excited to see what adventures God has in store for me spiritually, but really I am just as excited to go shopping there.  

Well once there I will be sure to include lots of pictures and let you all know how I am doing...that is if you are interested in what is going on.  Thanks for all the support!  

Hasta la proxima
