i cant believe we are already in march already it seems like i just had my last birthday a few months ago. the weather here is still nice but it is starting to get a little colder and rain a little more. in winter it is freezing cold with tons of rain, i have never been to oregon but it sounds similar to that. so i am just enjoying the weather while it lasts. all i eat right now is peach and oatmeal and milk in a shake. it is really good and really cheap. the oatmeal is 2 dolars for a kilo and peaches are 1.50 a kilo, which is like 2.2 pounds. so life is good. we still have a ton of people to teach and a lot of them are progressing really well. we had consejo on friday, with president martinez. he talked about pearl harbor and how the us was a sleeping giant up until that point. he compared it with the members of the church that they are a sleeping giant, that if we could wake them up kind of like pearl harbor did to the us, the church here would take off. i think that is true in any part of the world. if the members really woke up and worked together with the missionaries and were their source for finding people to teach it would be amazing and the church would double. i really liked his talk. the highest baptizing mission in the world is provo utah because they are just constantlly teaching all day, because they just get pure references, and dont have to do contacts. references are so much more effective and work so much better. there has been a lot of sales on ties so i have bought a bunch. also these jerseys were on sale so i bought a few. if anyone has any requests of things they want tell me now so i have time to look for them. thanks for everything hope all is well and that everyone is safe. always remember that the church is true, Jesus is the Christ, and if we endure to the end eternal life is our prize. these things i know to be true, and testify of them in the name of Jesus Christ amen
