Hey everyone! This week was actually pretty good here for me and Elder Flores in our new sector. Me and him are going to get along great, and we're really excited about the work that we're doing here. As it turns out he has spent his whole mission in one of my old sector so we we're able to talk a whole lot about the people and the things that we both did there. He's a really cool kid and something that I found out this week is that he's 18!! I had forgotten that in Mexico missionaries can leave when they're 18 and he caught me by surprise. Anyway we worked with some of the people that the sister missionaries left for us, that they had been teaching but we found out fast that they really were used to talking to the sisters. I've come to realize that that's going to be a difficulty here in this sector because we're realizing that for a couple years there's only been sister missionaries and now that we're here the members and a lot of the investigators are really sad and not wanting anything to do with us. Luckily me and my comp are pretty good about gaining the confidence of the people so we have been working hard to get them used to us being here. On the up side we found this one guy who is 18 and is going to be baptized the 11th of this month and he's awesome. He likes going to church and I think that he likes us a lot more than the sisters. The members are going to have to realize that we're here and are going to be here for a while and that we work different but we're going to have success no matter what so I'm excited!! We also found an awesome family that is really excited about us teaching them and coming to visit. The family is composed of non members, in actives, and active member so we've got a lot to do and they are the best!!! Anyway I have been good, still have yet to receive the paper that tells me when I'm coming home and all that but soon enough. I have been trying to get my hammock set up in my house but there is no one here that has a drill or knows how to use one but that's something that I'll still be working on!! I'll take pictures real soon but I do have some to send home today!! I love and miss you all tons!! Have a good week and don't forget to write! ELDER WILSON
