Super Bowl in Mante

Feb 7, 2016
haha dont worry, we didnt watch the superbowl...not even sure what
happened, but thats still pretty cool that it was this week! We had a
member who was pretty pumped for it so he grilled a bunch of meat and
we went and ate with him a few hours before, so if you stretch it we
kindof had a super bowl party! But i hope you all were able to enjoy
it, and I hope all of your weeks were pretty great as well! Our week
here was pretty great as well! We started the week off on the right
foot by having a Family Home Evening with a part member family! 

Pancake Night

It was great! And they made pancakes for it, it may sound normal, but it is
really hard to find good pancakes here so we were in heaven! I love
good pancakes like nothing else! SO that was a great way to start off!
And it just kept getting better! Every wednesday we meet together as a
zone to have a class, and lots of times we do activities that are then
related to the lesson, this week we played dodgeball to start,
truthfully im still not really sure how it related but it was alot of
fun, sadly Elder Lundberg and I didnt win, we took 3rd though, so it
wasnt a bad performance!

Birthday celebration with Juan de Dios

The week stayed great and got a little more spiritual when we headed
to Tampico to have a confrence with Elder Valenzuela, a member of the
70, he was super powerful, he helped us learn how to teach our
investigators bettert and how to better apply the gospel in our lives,
his spirit was so strong as he talked and it was amazing to get to
listen to him! The trip was also fun, the night before we had about 25
Elders in one house....so yeah it was a fun trip!

dodgeball

and now, more great news! This saturday we are going to have the
baptism for the Borjas Family! We are very excited for this and so are
they! So this week is going to be pretty great!
I hope you all have a great week as well!
With love,
Elder Ford
