Hello!

This was a great week. Things are settling in quite nicely in th offices of the mission. I'm enjoying learning and working with all sorts of Elders from all parts of North and South America. I was able to visit a family from my first area on Sunday for lunch. They are a great family and it was so great to see them again and remember the times we had shared over a year ago. It's strange for me to think of how long I have been here when it doesn't seem like any time at all!

All week we were doing Interviews, zone leader´s conference, zone conferences and other interviews and meetings. I have so much love and respect for the president. I'm sure you already are but if not, please pray for him and his wife. They are learning an entirely new language and running a mission,they could use all the prayers they can get. They are doing a great job and I know President Benton is truly an inspired leader. It's been great to learn from him over this last week.

On Sunday, we had a meeting here in the offices of the mission with Pres. Benton, 7 stake presidents, and Elder Ávila an Area 70. My comp and I translated for the president and gave a presentation on the mission´s focuses. It went very well. Many things happened but I'm very busy so I'll have to tell a story next week.

I love you all, thanks for you prayers!
