New Sector, New City--December 17th

Well i am now outside of the city tijuana! And i am now in the city Ensenada. remember Derek Mcdaniel went to mexico, he came here.  From what i have seen so far its a very nice place. Not anything like Tijuana. here there is a lot of tourism and cool stuff. The catch is i am opening up a sector!!! So i am actually lost. just a little bit. I came from Tijuana, and my new( old) compaion came from San Luis, so we don't know this place. Speaking of my companion, its elder Ramirez! thats right my Old companion from about 6 months ago en the Ward Los altos!! They have put us back together and we are happy to be here.

So last week it was good, like a said i knew they were going to change me so it was a sad week with saying goodbyes and stuff. Then Thursday, saturday, and today it rained so it made it just a little sader. But i am glad to be where i am. Plus the conference we had with the De Hoyos family. Really powerful him and his wife. She challenged us to read the book oh mormon more in her talk. She even told us that Joesph Smith translated the Book Of Mormon in 85 days! so she gave us the challenge of reading it in 85 days! While reading it to highlight Jesus's name or surname that appears. So we will see if i do it. i have started, but i do admit it will be hard but it will be good.

I am so happy here. yesterday we had several people come to church so i have left a lot of work in that ward for the next missionary. And thats how it is. The lords work keeps on rolling! and its great to be part of it. I have been so blessed in my life i am forever in debt of my heavenly father for that. I am glad to be here serving him and want to be an instrument in his hands. As of tomorrow, i am the "oldest" missionary in the field. Well there is 8 of us. But we become the oldest in the mission. so i have got to make the most of it.

I know that our hevenly father is watching us. I know that he has angles here helping everyone of us in our journeys! i know that Jesus is our Savior. that because of him, my life has a purpose. He loves us, and i love him.

Hope you all are saying your prayers, having family prayers, having your family home evening, reading the scriptures, and LIVING THE GOSPEL!

and remeber that everyone loves a missionary,

Elder Olsen
