What up fam?Well umm not much to say all of the people we have found dont even live in mexico city, they are just here on vacation. BUt they were good lessons where the holy ghost testified to them that this is true, so hopefully at least a seed was planted. We also had a really cool experience when we were knocking. Well we knock this door and this 21 yr old kid comes out. Turns out that was a business buildiing and not a house. Anyways he comes out really angry, i introduce myself and he says well frankly im not even going to listen to you if i let you teach me something so its better if you just not waste your time. Then he goes can i ask you a question i said sure and he just starts going how come americans are so racist? they just kick mexicans around and treat em like crap and a bunch of other stuff. So first elder Zamora starts talking to him really calmly, explaining the realty of it and why some people just have bad experiences when they go to the states and others prosper. Then after talking for a while and a few other questions. He calms down and says you know what i like you guys i really do. He then thanked us for answering his questions and said you know i would like to hear your message. So we shared it and he was really interested. It was a way cool lesson and he felt something i know he did. Sadly he was just a security guard there and they switch them every month or so to other areas. So we were truely guided to this door cause that was his last night there and then he was getting transfered. And hopefully that experience will lead him to want to know more and someday some other elders will knock on his door. But yeah good stuff. Umm yeah o and thanks for the videos. Im sure the jerky will be here this week. So i cant wait to eat it. Well i love you guys sooo much thanks for everything. Have an awesome week. Later

Hey fam.Yeah easter here hahaha there wasnt one. But yeah it just makes me sooooo angry they cant even have one day of respect. Well they worship the virgin a lot on this day i dont know why. Beats me but yeah then the rest ummm they have an event where they do a scene reenactment. Starting with the judment of Jesus to when he gets crucified. I dont know about the resurrecion. But yeah they choose somebody to be Jesus like 6 months before and he gets prepared and then he walks like a looooong ways with his cross and getting whipped(actually whipped so that he bleeds) at the same time. Then they hang him on the cross, here they just use ropes to tie him up, other places they actually nail him to the cross. Yeah i havent seen one so i dont know what all they actually do. Yeah im just glad to know the true gospel and that none of that is necessary.But man i wish it was cold here, its been so hot and dry. And we are running out of water so they just pick random days to shut off the water, so some times you wake up with no water. But we set some apart in buckets just in case. Umm virginia went on vacation so we werent able to teach her. Hopefully this week. Then this week we taught a lot of people but they all were just visiting. But hopefully we were able to plant a little seed so they can be interested and excited about the restored and true gospel. Yeah that was about it and dont think i have anything else. But i love you guys. I hope all is greatly and awesomely wonderful. Love you and have a great week

Hey fam,Whats up? Yeah the conference was way good. I got to watch evrything but the first session on saturday. Yeah all of the talks were sooo good. I loved how there were a lot based on trials and hard parts of life. Those will always come but basically like they were saying bring it on. No matter if its a trial or the easiest time of our life we have to enjoy every bit of it. I love how positive they always are. Yeah but good stuff. Anyways sound like itll be a party up there for the weekend. Here itll probably be a little crazy basically everybody takes off for two weeks and parties at least thats what the people say. But well see what happens. But yeah as for the comp. we get along really well. This area is still a little hard but hopefully we can be lead to the people that are prepared. We have a lady that was looking promising her name is virginia. She is Christian so well see what happens. The thing is she prayed and recieved an answer but when she went to church she was a little bored cause shes used to having a rock and roll concert in her church. But God gave her the answer now its just her choice.But yeah other than that we dont have any progressing. Well im out of things to say. But i love all of you sooooo much and thank you for all of the prayers and support. I pray for you guys everyday. Have an awesome easter. Youll have to get me some pictures from the easter gathering right? Love ya hasta luegoElder Crick
