Hello Everybody, today, January 21, 2012, is my 200th day in the mission, and
wow how time flies by, but I love it. to start off, I would like to explain
what I got to do this day, my pday, today, I had the oppurtunity to go
downtown, and wow, it is huge!!!! Like literally 8 times larger than Salt Lake
City downtown, I also got to go to a museum of mummies, that was pretty cool, it
is pretty cool in downtown mexico, it´s definitely one of a kind of a place, but
it´s pretty awesome.
And, we have one investigator with a date for
baptism, the son of Carlos, Rodrigo, is so excited about lerarning the gospel,
and we already have a date for his baptism. I´m pretty excited, I hope that
everything will be good with that baptism. And, this week, I had the
oppurtunity to teach Carlos Rios again, it was so cool! He is so interested in
studying the gospel, and he is already giving us suggestions to improve the
missionary work here in Nativtas, I´m pretty excited for him. He is reading
every day, and studying like crazy, he is pretty much like one of the smartest
people I have ever met, he understands Einstein, and now, he is beginning to
understand the gospel, and that is even more awesome, I´m excited to see his
process, for that reason, i wouldn´t mind being here in Nativitas another six
weeks, but we´ll see what happens when there are changes. Also, more
information on Carlos Rios, we are still teaching his mom, and she is 87 years
old, but can´t see very well, so she has been listening to the book of mormon on
CD and she remembers everything perfectly! She can´t go to church though
because it is too cold in the morning for her to leave, she wants to be
baptized, but we have to wait until MArch or April, when she can leave easier,
but still, I really hope that her health will permit her to be baptized and go
to church, because she is pretty much awesome. Also, there is really cool
experience that I had that i want to tell you guys real quick, Here it comes.
So, my companion and I needed to hurry to get to an appointment, because
we were in another appointment longer than expected, so we decided to take a
micr(a small bus) which normall costs 8 pesos for both of us, so we were waiting
for the bus, it came, we signaled it that we wanted to ride, and it came, and we
got on, and I tried to pay, but the driver wouldn´t let me, my companion
couldn´t pay either, and I´m pretty sure it was because he saw the name of Jesus
Christ on our nametags, because he was listing to spanish christian rock music
about how Jesus Christ is our Savior and stuff, so I´m pretty sure he didn´t
make us pay because of that, it was pretty awesome, Its so cool to me how even
nonmembers of the church can still recognize what missionaries represent, to me
that is a testimony to the importance and the truth of this work that I have a
blessing to be apart of, it´s pretty much, fantastic!. And yeah, that´s about
all for this week, thanks for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers, Love
you all! Love, Elder Daniel Limb
