Q: How is your Spanish coming, do you feel like you understand what's going on?

My Spanish is awesome. I can understand everything except slang...

Q: Tell us about your new companion

Elder G has 10 months in the mission and was the father of my friend from the ccm (Elder Hoffman). He´s awesome and loves to cook. Especially cuz all of his family owns restaurants. 

Q: What are you currently reading/studying?

I´m currently reading Jesus the Christ (just started) and am studying all of the scripture mastery. They really are some of the best mission prep i didn't know i did.

Sarah (his girlfriend) started her mission papers. how is this my story? It´s not, this is:  We have a set amount of study hours every day. My comp doesn't always want to do them. He said something interesting the other day. "But as we help them that's how we are saved" Justifying leaving early to proselyte. But i sat thinking. Yes that is true. Every person we meet will testify before god of what they know of us. And if we helped them with a smile they will testify of that. But we must always remember that if we were not obedient, These compliments will only bring feelings of guilt and we will be too embarrassed to accept them. 

Be the reason someone does something good. Do something good. Be perfectly obedient in every visit, paper, study, second, and repent and pray often. And in this manner we will become like our Father. 

This is what I've been teaching recently.
