Elder Ryan Cleverly~ Mexico City West Mission: September 5, 2016~ "If You Want to Give a Light to Others...You have to Glow Yourself"

1. How long has Elder Reynoso been out on the Mish?
~This is his last tranfer

2. So when you say your area is new, does it mean a new area no one has taught in or new area meaning it was closed for awhile and now open again?
~Its reopened

3. Are you and Elder Reynoso the only missionaries in Ixtapan or are there others?
~There are hermanas and the Senior Missionaries

4. Is it a Ward or Branch in your area?
~Branch

5. How long did it take you to get to your area from the MTC? Did you go in a Van?
~We went to Presidents house which was an hour and then 2 and a half from there. To President's house we took a van but then you ride in taxis and le buses.

Yeah my group was the biggest group. Elder Reynoso is sweet and I write in my journal every day but they are short so I won't need a new one.

So this week has been a lot of talking with people. We contact a lot because there are not a lot of investigators but thats fine.... contacting is fun. I can talk to them and they understand me, I just can't understand them haha. I invited three families to get baptized and they said yes which was sweet. This place is sweet but we have to walk and take taxis everywhere. I don't have a lot of pictures because it rains everyday so I will get some later. Sunday was good till after church... its aweful because you have to contact and there is no one, but this week was good. This next week we need to get people to church which is hard because no one wants to or they work on Sundays. Lessons are fun its just hard to understand what they are saying haha. Well thats my week...got to go. Talk to you next week. Tell everyone I love them!!!

~Love Elder Cleverly

P.S. Hey, so sending pictures is like a no go where I am because its so slow. I will try to find another place... in the meantime you might not get pictures. We are going to a different one next time because the other one was closed today
