I went on splits with the zone leaders this week. It was so nice to get a break from my companion. I was with Elder Reed who has 22 months in the mission and that was good. We were contacting and this guy starting to try to argue doctrine with him and he just got really confused and started to just talk about Trump haha. The next day I got a new companion. I'm still in the same zone. My companions name is Elder Critchfield. He's got 10 months in the mission and he's from Utah too. He's a nice kid and has a lot of patience with me. I'm doing good. This area is poor so hopefully I don't get robbed. We have more cockroaches. They just like dirty so that explains our house but its all good.

Other than that, our house has cockroaches, a lot of them, I don't understand pretty much anything anyone is telling me and I can speak even less then that, and none of our investigators ever come to church.... I'm pretty confident though that if I could speak Spanish that I could get them to come. Its really hard right now. I'm praying a lot and know it'll get better.

This week has been good for the most part. I don't understand much but I'm learning. Very slowly but I'm learning. Other than a few things its going well. I really want to be able to know Spanish so that I can share the joy of the gospel. Right now I can only share a simple testimony but I know this church is the true church. I love this gospel. A guy came up to me crying and saying can you help me? I want to change my life. I want to stop drinking. Will you preach to me?..... There are people out there that are looking for the truth but don't know where to find it. That is why I'm here.

Hey family I made it to Monterrey safe. Its a lot cleaner than Mexico City from what I can see. Thank you for talking to me for a little bit. Remember to share the gospel with others and don't forget to read you scriptures daily. Love you guys. -Elder Geddes
