And he saith unto them, I am he of whom it is written by the prophets; follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Matt. 4:19

Well last weeks email was great. Elder Smith's opening sentence included: "I love it more and more each day!" I would have to say that so far the experience in the Guatemala MTC/CCM has been nothing less than amazing for him. It is also definitely a bonus that he gets to play soccer for hours on P-Days :) His group visited the temple this past week to talk to the members there so they could improve their Spanish. Josh and his companion Elder Boyer love the group of Spanish Missionaries they room with. He said they are the greatest companeros de cuarto of all time! Apparently one of his roomies Elder Sierra is referred to as the Justin Bieber of Honduras! :) Elder Sierra is Josh's companion on Sunday's and they get to go into the real world and teach which Josh was pretty excited about. He is getting A lot of teaching experience which will be very helpful, they teach about 3 lessons a day. Josh has been out now for a little over one month and happily I can report that he said the time is flying by. He really loves the people he has met and he thinks the CCM president is the greatest. His name is President Nicolaysen. Not sure what country he is from. It is the rainy season in Central America but Josh say's so far it hasn't been bad. It rains a little about 2pm every day then it is fine. We are grateful that his experience so far is so positive. We feel really blessed as a family that Josh is able to have this wonderful experience. We know there will be some hard times coming but for now it is all rosie in Guatemala!! We love him very much and know that Heavenly Father will look after him and allow him to have the experiences he needs to help him grow. Bye for now :)
