Unexpected Visitors!

Elder Stabenow had a few unexpected visitors today! A family from our ward was vacationing in mexico and they saw a few missionaries and asked if they know Elder Stabenow,  They told them that he was just down the street at a Bus station.  He just happened to be in that area for a zone conference. What a fun treat!

Busy Week and Lights Out!

Elder Stabenow and Elder Reyes

This week was really good. We saw some good things happen this week. We were able to have some people accept a baptism date and they are really progressing really well.

Some other events that happen this week is that we took a trip to Ingenino which is a town an hour from Ucum, and yes our area is that big, but we basically work in 2 towns and if we have work in the others we go there as well. But Ingenino is not the end of our area we could have gone another Half an hour to reach the end.

Here in Quintana Roo there are no mountains, but i heard at the end our our area we can see the mountains of Guatemala. We are also very very close to Belize it’s about 10 minutes from us. But over all this area is one of the prettiest.

Also in the Photo our lights went out! So it was really fun to have a candle night.

I hope everyone is having a great day and I love you all and wish the best for you.

Keep on Going!

Lights out!

Letter from 2 weeks ago....


I am very happy about this week, we finally had some investigators go to church and some that could be baptized very soon, but we will wait and see. But it has be very nice to see how the lord works in other people. And it was a blessing to see a few examples this week. That is one of the blessings of the mission. Seeing the lord work through others and preparing the way and the hearts of the people.

Many times we are walking in the sun all day, but I am okay with that because of the things that we witnessed this week.


Thanks for the love and support.

Big Changes:Trainer & District Leader!

Elder Stabenow with his new Companion Elder Reyes and his very first Companion Elder Calderon!

Hello everyone.

I am now a Trainer and a District Leader! My new companion is called Elder Reyes. He is just off the plane and is very excited to work. I am really excited to work with him.

It has been interesting to see one missionary ending his mission and the other beginning, they both teach me new things.

This week in Ucum we received a lot help from the members in the work that makes us super happy. I am very excited for this transfer,

thanks for all the help and love and support.

One Year Down!!

One Year!


How Crazy is that! On my one year mark Woke up just thinking a lot about a year ago and what a difference I feel. However my companion was not feeling so well so we went to the doctor in Chetumal and we found out he has Salmonella. So he needed injections for 4 days so I had to learn how to give an injection to someone, and it was not in the arm or the leg, and I believe you know where I am talking about. Haha!

But back to the 1 Year I have learned a lot, but I still have a lot to learn, but I am so grateful for the lessons that I have learned and the Blessing it is to be here in my mission. I am now just looking ahead and trying to make it the best mission I can. It’s up there, up ahead and that is where we need to face. Look for you mark which is in Christ.

I love this blessing to be in the best mission in the world "La Misión México Cancún", what a blessing it is to have a mission in my life.

I know this is Christ´s Church. We have a living day Prophet and Apostles, Joseph Smith was a Prophet of God, and through him The Church was Restored!

I love this gospel, I know we have many people to help in this life. Thanks for all the love, prayers, and everything else that you have done for me.






Thanks for your support

Elder Stabenow and Scooter!

Sorry for the big picture it is the only way to upload pictures at the internet cafe here.


But everything is really great here in Ucum. This week we were basically setting ourselves up for the next week. But we are working hard on finding new investigators. But everything is really peaceful here. Its a really calm place in the mission and i love it. This week we also had a Noche Mexicana and it went really well. It was actually one of the first activities in this Branch. It went really well and we believed it helped a lot of people there.


Thanks for the love and support that all of you do!

Special transfer! Ucum!

9/12/2016


Hello everyone! I hope everyone is doing great.
This week was an interesting one on Wednesday night I got a call from the AP´s and they said that i need to pack up my stuff and go to Ucum, so now i am here and with Elder Marchant. I have already met him and he is finishing up his mission this transfer. I don´t know what the changes are for but it was between 3 pairs of missionaries. But I am here and it is a cool place and I am excited to work here.

 I was sad to leave Elder Alger and José Maria Morelos, but I am needed here now. I hope everything goes well here and we will be finishing this transfer hard for Elder Marchant. 

To be honest I have been great and really blessed. Thanks for the love and support, it means a lot.

I love you all!

Still In José Maria Morelos!

Hello Family and friends.

I am still here in mi Pueblo.


But now I am with Elder Alger, He is from Bolder City Nevada. He only has 2 more transfers then he is going home. But I knew him from my first transfer and I have not seen him since until now.

This week we got to open a little group to our branch, there is another village 3 miles from ours called La Presumida and we got to do a sacrament meeting there, because it is difficult for them to go to Jose Maria. But we had some investigators come to the services and it turned out very well. It was great to see that.

I am excited to stay here in Jose Maria Morelos another 6 weeks, so we will see how it goes.

Thanks for the love and support
