How's It Going?

Hey Mom,

I have been doing really well here. THe bus ride was insane, it is so crowded in this city and roads were getting blocked off and masses of people were just driving over the medians. It was pretty cool though. The CCM president's wife takes most of the pictures but I am not sure who did it at the airport. I see Jospeh every day or every other day about. We don't talk too much but it's nice to have a familiar face. My companion, Elder Hansen, is from Glendora California and played water polo and was on a bad team just like me. We actually have a ton in common and he reminds me a lot of Nathan Scott. And as far the districct goes it is about half going to my mission, then we have 2 guys going to McAllen Texas, a guy going to Peru, and the 2 Hermanas are going to Peru as well. The pizza was really good, and it is actually on Tuesday nights so that is the first meal the elders get when they arrive which is nice. On Sunday we have a more relaxeed schedule where we can kind of study whatever we want but we do have study time and meetings with different leaders. Oh and I got randomly shecked at the airport which kind of sucked but no whammy machine, I just had some guy tell me he wanted to look through my bag. And my companion and I definitely know the most Spanish out of anyone in our district. We also sit next to Latinos at meals so we can get some authentic practice.

Love,

Elder Seibert

Hey Everyone, I hope you all had a good week. Down here in Paraguay things are going well. I am loving my new area and, and my companion Elder Castro has a ton of energy, so we are gonna kill it. It has been beyond HOT this past week, like almost 110 with humidity. But we are still out everyday trying to teach people about Jesus Christ. Maybe this will sound obvious to all of you, but I have been thinking about how important it is to share this message we have with everyone we know. The gospel of Jesus Christ and all that he did for us is so important. I am so grateful for the knowledge that I have about Jesus, about his plan for me and how I can be like him. As I try harder and harder each day to be like my Savior I can see that it is not easy. He never had it easy as long as he lived and as long as I am trying to be like him it will never get easier. I am so happy to be here in Paraguay and serving the people who live here. Love, Elder Seibert Pics: me saying goodby...
