Week 50: Laredo

Well happy Fourth Of July!!! I'm super grateful to be an American!! We didn't do anything fun for the fourth. We had to be in our apartment by 6 and then just talked and went to sleep!!

Most of the week was introducing my new companion to the members here. There isn't too much to write about. My companion is Elder Weeks from San Diego. He has been out for about 18 months so a lot longer then me.

Elder Falcon and Madsen both left and there wasn't enough missionaries to replace them so we are now living in a two man! It's pretty nice we have a lot of room for ourselves. Elder Weeks is super huge into fitness so he is teaching me how to take care of my body. I'm going to learn a lot from him! I'm super excited to be his companion. This week we woke up at 6 and then ran to the church then did a cross fit work out then ran back. We also played a lot of basketball and soccer as a zone. We go to a place called The Conch every Saturday to play! It's super fun! I will send a picture of it next week.   Then after we exercise we eat breakfast and then we shower and get ready for the day. We start personal study at 8 then we have companionship study at 9, then language study at 10 and then if we don't have a meeeting we eat lunch at 11 and then we are out the door by 12. But usually something always comes up and something changes. Then we just go and work. And then we come home by 9 and then plan for half an hour and then we sleep at 10:30! That is a usual schedule for a TMM missionary. 

But I know that this church is true and is the only true church. I'm super grateful to be a member of it. I love you all so much!!!

Love, Elder Hurst
