Here are a few pros and cons to serving a mission....
They didn't have any water at their apartment for a few daysso they had to shower with a bucket and a cup!!!
Watching out for dogs in the area is important since Matthew has
been nearly bitten a couple of times.
He and his companion walk everywhere they go but they were just given
cell phones to make life easier!!!
He is serving in a beautiful location in Los Cabos on the
Baja peninsula.
He is not a "greenie" any more, because he is serving with his
second companion who is from Canada.
Most important he is serving the Lord and teaching the
people of Mexico about the Savior and the restored gospel.
They have had two baptisms and many contacts.
We are very proud of him and happy that he has taken the
opportunity to serve a mission. Our whole family is blessed for the
service that he is giving to the people in Mexico.
Good job Elder Sorensen!!!!
The above picture is of the other Elders who he arrived with and
his Mission President, Pres. Johnston from Rexburg, Idaho.
Hopefully more pictures will come soon.

I don't know about you, but that went fast!
RaeAnn, Can you even believe it's been six months?? Taylor's 6 month mark will be on Aug. 6th and they have a baptism scheduled for that same day. You should put Matthew's emails and pics on a blog!
It went really fast Jen!! Matthew's letters are short and sweet and his camera's battery charger was broken so I don't have any pictures yet. But we sent him a new charger and he just received it....so....hopefully
soon!!!
