3/30/2015 - Culiacan Letter & Pics

Hola de Mexico!!!!!!!

Hey Everyone,

  So this week has been really great, we have been working a lot, tons of lessons and and just finding people to talk to. Well we first started our week off with losing our cellphone! yeah! so we literally had no connection at all with our leaders and it was like if we had an emergency we were to start a fire and do smoke signals, thankfully that did not have to happen. We ended up buying one today for like 30$, super cheap but hey its an amazing color red and we got earphones for free. love it! 

   We have been teaching this one investigator the lessons and he is about 17 years old and believes in the saint of death, he carries around his neck a medallion of the reaper and prayers to her every night. So out of all of the questions that i have been asked about what we believe, this would have to be one of the top 3, Do you believe in the angel of Death? Definitely has given me a different perspective on how we view death. I am happy to say that we die like any normal person here on earth, and our body is laid to rest in the earth and returns to dust, as so it says in Ecclesiastes, and our spirit goes to God in Heaven, our Heavenly Father. We don't have to wait for anyone to come and take us down to the awful place of fire and brimstone, this is for after the resurrection and judgement with Jesus Christ.  

   We also have had a great week here, the sun has really come out and we are now carrying our sweat rags! let it begin!!! we still haven't bought umbrellas yet but we shall endure it for another week or two before we buy any. I just love it here in Mexico, it has given me such a wonderful experience, it will be a sad day for when we go home and say goodbye to this lovely place, I am in love.  I know this is where i am suppose to be and sharing the gospel with people, and then see it change their lives, i get so happy! we are just running and hoping that others will come and join the race. I love you all thanks. 

Always Happy,
Hermana Newmeyer
