Week 90 - Wow, week 90!

Hey everybody,

This was a great week! We found some really cool people. One cool story: It was a rainy day, my companion had diarrhea, and we were tired. It was like 8:15 and we were thinking about heading home and calling it a day. But we decided to look for one more less active family. We walked along a long street and didn't find the house number (the house numbers are all scrambled, everyone picks their favorite number). but we got to another street and turned the corner, we looked for a different family and they were home! we taught them and a family friend, Yadira. She seems very interested. It was cool to see how our diligence was rewarded and how God was able to work through us.

I am getting along great with my comp, he is a good friend. I am happy and healthy, a little tired but no complaints.

Hope y'all have a great week!
Love,
Elder Rasmussen

Week 89 - Insurgentes, Celaya - Happy Father's Day!

Hey everybody,

This has been a very fast week. It was rainy almost all week which has been pretty nice actually. Elder Torres and I have gotten along really well. He is a funny guy.

We have quite a few investigators that have a lot of potential to get baptized. I am excited to see what happens. The ward is really small. Only like 50ish people went to church yesterday. But it was also Fathers Day and Mexico played against Germany and won! 1-0

All is well here in Celaya. I am learning the area quickly and am excited to see how the change goes.

And Happy Father's Day Dad! You are the best dad in the world!

Hope y'all have a great week!
Love,
Elder Rasmussen

Week 88 - Celaya!

Hola,

I got transferred to the next city over, Celaya. I am now with Elder Torres from Monterrey, he seems like a really chill missionary. I am excited to work here with him.

Last night I was super sad to say goodbye to the ward and to the Bravo Family. I feel like they are part of my family now. But I am also excited to be here in Celaya.

Not much is new, other than that. All is well here in Mexico.

Hope y'all have a great week!
Love,
Elder Rasmussen

Week 87 - Birthday! 21!

Hey!

This was a pretty rough week, but things are looking up. We have changes next week! I am excited to see where I will finish my mission.

Also, 13 years ago today I was baptized! June 4th, 2005.

We had Stake Conference and Elder Jorge Garcia came. He spoke a lot about how to minister. He is a funny guy, I was really inspired by his words. Also President Williamson was there.

Hope y'all have a great week!
Love,
Elder Rasmussen
