Hey Guys,

This week has been long, but we have moved into our new house today. We had divisions with the Zone Leaders this week which was really good. I went with Elder Nygarrd. He is an awesome guy and a great missionary. He has given me a lot of advise about how I can help Elder Garcia and it has worked. But I am kind of worried about Elder Garcia again this last week he was really homesick and told me he almost called President to go home when I was in the shower. He has also been struggling sickness. With all of these things sometimes I feel like we are leveling off instead of improving and some days I feel like we go backwards. He loves to spend time with members. There are a lot of times when I feel like we could be more productive doing something else but when I share that idea sometimes he doesn´t like it. This week I set a goal with him to reach the normas and we almost made it but Saturday he had a fever of 102 so we didn´t get very much work done the next few days. I am really going to try hard to reach the norms this week, seeing as it will probably be my last week here. 


This week I have been so stressed and I let my comp know it. I have been exhausted, my comp is not helping in this moving process and I have had bed bugs for a month. I think I am turning into mom on the mission. Everything is planed and needs to work. My comp is like dad, sorry dad, but worse he likes to wing it. I packed my stuff, everything from the house and cleaned the whole house. When the mover showed up my comp hadn´t even touched his suitcase. We had other missionaries help and one said why didn´t you help your comp. I almost killed him. At this point my comp was sitting outside watch the sun rise. He didn´t pack his own thing the other Elders did it for him. I finally told him to get moving and he did sometimes, I wonder what he's thinking. My comps favorite phrase is "No me importa" or "I don´t care". But it is all over and we are in.  I finally bought a new bed and changes are in a week so my replacement will have a new bed and new house he should be happy. 


This week has been really cold I heard it hit -1 one night, I have been fine but my comp hates it. I attached a pick of familia Gonzalez. The girl on the left will get baptized the 28th. I am still in my suit because they left on Sunday for vacations and my comp didn´t want to walk to there house so we took a taxi from lunch. Last week I sent a letter to Ben Clark and Ben Thompson from USU, I hope they get them, we will see how the mail is here. The second pick is from Zaydas baptism I don´t think I ever sent it. I have some sweet news. Elder Nygarrd told me in November Elder Bednar or Oaks will be visiting the mission we are going to have a huge meeting with this mission and the other in Montevideo it is going to be sweet. Could you should send me a conference addition in English I can read it in Spanish but I don´t like it as much. So if you can that would be sweet. Anyway that is about, it take care. ç

Love you 

Elder Wray
