Mangos!!!

So this week we had a little bit of trouble, but we also had a good amount of mangos, haha. It was a fun week. Success wise, we didn't do so well, but it is all good. We will be doing better this week, I can just feel it. Transfers was fun, Elder N left our apartment, and Elder Bj is now our District Leader in our apartment. It is pretty fun to have him back again in the apartment, we get to talk a lot about all the experiences that we had together, it is so much fun. Finally here the mangos are ripe, so we have had so many lately, it is awesome. Elder Bj showed us this way to eat them, basically we mash them up, then we open a whole, and suck out of it. It is like have a mango drink, and it isnt as messy as cutting it. This week we just havent been able to get people to open the door for us, I dont know why. We have also been finding a lot of English too, which makes it hard for us, because we just have to pass them. Where we are, there is one area of really concentrated Spanish, and we have knocked it all, and missionaries in the past have really worked it too, so we have been trying to spread out, but it has lead to a lot of English passing. We might have to go a little bit more back to the complete Spanish area, but hopefully we will start finding more success where we are working, becuase we feel really good about actually branching out and working these areas that have not been touched for a while. We are pretty excited for this transfer, it is definately going to be a fun one. I will try and be better at sending more pictures. I thank you so much for what you do for me. I love this gospel, and I love this work. I know that it is the work of the Lord, and that he has called us to go and preach his gospel. I know that with Jesus Christ we can conquer all of our challenges, and have eternal life. I love you all so much, and am grateful for your support and letters.

it has been raining so I took some cool pictues with my camera, I only sent one of the rainy clouds, but there are some really cool pictures.  We got pretty wet this week, we did a lot of bike riding and there was plenty of rain,Elder Wesley Christopher Bowen
