Hola Mis Amigos!

How was all of your week?

I don't have a ton of time to write but here are some points:
- I got sick half way through the week, so every time I ate something I thought I was gonna throw up. This lasted for about 4 days, and is still kind of happening. 
- It was the hottest its been in Mexico since I got here. Haha so for all those that know me, lets just say my white shirts are kinda gross. 
- I COMMITTED SOMEONE TO BE BAPTIZED IN SPANISH! Antonia and her sister Ingrid said yes when I asked them to be baptized, first they said yes and second they understood me.
- Antonia came to church this Sunday and she loved it. She said it was really beautiful.
- We saw some brothers working outside so we went to offer to help. They were a little confused but said yes. So for a hour we helped them and then their mom talked to us of a bit and they want us to come teach them. So that is the power of SERVICE!


Thank you for your prayers and your emails. You guys are all the best. 


Love,
Elder Cheney

Ok so this is my best friend. He is the fan next to my desk.

Hola Mis Amigos!!! Well this week was 100% better this week! We had so many miracles and it just makes me so thankful for Heavenly father and the blessings that he gives us!!! So we had a baptism this week! Hermano Manuel, he came to church about 4 times and he never had time to meet with us. But one time we met with him right after church and for a straight hour and a half he just talked. We didnt say anything. So that was fun haha! But then this tuesday we were trying to get in contact with him because we hadn't talked to him for a week, but his phone is really bad and he had work we thought. But he answered us!! He wanted to meet that night, but!!!!!!! We were walking through the park in our area and he walked right past us!!! He was looking for a job because he lost his, which was good and bad.......But we talked to him then and asked him if he wanted to be baptized in 5 days. HE SAID YES!!!!! So I had the opportunity to then baptize him this saturday. Then at his b...

  Soy comida para niños Hola Mis Amigos! Sorry for not emailing this past week! But honestly its been just a normal week of missionary work. So in my area we received a new set of missionaries! So Tuxtla Chico now has Elders and Sisters!!! So we spent some time looking for a house for the sisters and then spent some time moving them in, moving a full on fridge up a tiny stairwell is not the funnest thing. But I am now prepared to go back home and help the elders quorum.  This week we have been working really hard to find new people and also keep teaching, 1. ANA- SHE IS THE BEST!! She has been one of the best investigators that I have ever had. She has read the Book of Mormon until Alma, prayed for answers and received them! Then she has come to church like for two months!!! BUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTTTTTT, is scared to be baptized. She wants to be more than sure. So we are helping her with that. Pray for her. 2. BRYAN (CHINO)- He is a 10 year old, a...
