He arrived in Mexico City

-

 Charles arrived to the Mexico City MTC (also known as CCM, in Spanish it's pronounced se se M A) on Tuesday, August 29th, 2023

We got a short and sweet email from him that evening: 

    "Hey Mom, I made it to the CCM safely. Tell everyone I madera italiana safely. Talk to you soon!"  

I think he was trying to say "made it here" safely. I'm wondering if he was talk texting. hahaha! 

This is Elder Garthe's District in the CCM

  I'm in Oregon now!!! I'm serving in a Town called Hermiston. And my area is huge. It covers like 1/5 of the mission. And last transfer my area was actually split into 2 areas bit this transfer they were combined so I have been super busy with a bunch of lessons which us super awesome. I've had the chance to meet a bunch of really cool people. Of which I could go talking about but this email would take way to long. So I won't   But I'm still in a Trio so I have 2 New Companions (Elder Larsen and Armstrong) both being from UT. Elder Larsen actually was in the same district as me in the CCM (México MTC) so it's been super fun being able to reconnect with him. Our apartment used to have both Spanish companionship and now were one so we have the entire apartment to ourselves which is nice.  Also fun bonus is that my companionship is entirely made up of missionaries who have either been out the same time or after me so it has allowed me to branch out of my comfort z...

  All right, all right. After last weeks hilarious abomination of an email, I felt that to do y'all some justice I will spend some time writing a good one right now. This one will be dense and well written. First off, Just started a new transfer and my companions all stayed the same, same with our district. It definitely caught us all by surprise but it'll be fun. I had the chance to go and visit the temple this past week and it was a super good experience as always. We have be consistently teaching this woman named Salome. And she is such a dawg. She is slowly learning and progessing but that's because she really wants to understand and comprehend the things we have been teaching her. We are hoping she will be able to come to church this next when one of our members invites her  . Another blessing we have seen come to fruition is all of our work we havw been putting into relationships with the members. A lot of the inactive members we have been working with have been reach...

  Alright I have decided that sending a email every week isn't going to happen. But I'll definitely keep y'all updated with the good stuff. Jan 11, I had a District Exchange in Basin City. It was my first time being there despite having multiple district exchanges. But I have just been banished in Connell. But Basin wasn't anything special so, I guess that was a bummer.  But Elder Rivera is hilarious and so he made it super fun. We had this lunch with this one white lady in their ward and she made sourdough bread for our sandwiches. So I was like alright this gonna be good. Turns out it was not. She made SUPER crispy and so I took the first bite and it not only sounds like a trash compacter but it spills crumbs all over my shirt. Super Not Chill. Jan 12, The temperature had dropped to ridiculously low. Cali Boy over here was not prepared one bit. Normally it wouldn't matter but that day we got a flat tire because of low tire pressure.    And so we had to get out of ...
