We got our first email from our Mexican boy and I cried the whole time I read it. He is a happy boy but going through the regular growing pains of a new missionary. He has to walk up and down steep hills all day long in Acapulco. He says it's like hiking the Y all day long. I hiked the Y! It's really hard! He is with a companion that doesn't speak any English which is actually good because he will learn the language much faster but right now he is struggling to understand anybody. Also, it is ridiculously hot there and there is no air conditioning anywhere. Jensen is burning hot and sweating all the time. He can't go into a nice air conditioned apartment or church or member's home because there aren't any cool places there. Luckily, he loves his companion and the work so while I cry and pray for him I know that "all this shall be for his good" and he will learn and grow tons while going through these experiences. Only one more missionary after this. Whew!
