Well I’m on really early today because I won’t have any time later on. I’m with the zone leader and another Elder right now. There’s a bunch of changes going on right now. My companion went to another part of the zone, and one of the old zone leaders is the new assistant. The new zone leader is elder Long, my trainer haha! It’s gonna be pretty fun actually. We´ll see what happens with this new change. I'm getting another gringo, so my Spanish will probably continue to suffer but what can you do. I’m still looking forward to it! Other than that, nothing else is new. We have a really really cool investigator right now who’s really progressing. Hopefully I’ll be able to send more details next week. I’m not in my area right now and don’t have any way to send pictures. Also one of the sisters died this week! like went home if you don’t know missionary slang. We had a little bit of a party after the district class for her. I say party, but not really, we took pictures, sang a hymn and ate some cake. It was pretty fun. But yeah. That’s my week. Super interesting I know haha.
Hijole pues, I don’t have much to say! Ive been seriously slacking on the journal thing... I’ve decided to just stop make excuses and just write every day, but the problem is getting to bed on time. The sisters really like to talk in their nightly reports. What can you do. Well my newish comp is Elder Anderson (If I didn’t say so last week) and he’s a tall white kid from Arizona! He’s also homeschooled all his life soooooooo needless to say we have a lot more in common than I did with Elder Custodio. He’s great. I don’t know if I said so but I had the chance to baptize a 73 year old lady two weeks ago! She wasn’t our investigator but its a long story. Right now we´re are seeing some pretty good progress in some investigators. It’s super easy to tell the difference between people who act and keep their commitments than those that don’t. The Lord works through our faith when we put ACTIONS behind our belief. That may be obvious but its kind of interesting to see in action with people investigating and searching for the church. Faith is more of putting a hope and belief behind our actions. That’s why some people can do all that they have to do in terms of actions, but still don’t receive an answer, its a lack of the belief/hope, or, its just not our time to know. A lot of times its the latter haha.
Well nothing much else to say except that yesterday we left our house keys in the car of a member and got locked out of our house until 9:30 ish. Also we will be skyping at 6 next Sunday (in the afternoon) just so you know!
May 15, 2017
Well I don’t have much to say, but this week has been a good week. We’ve decided as a district to apply certain parts of chapter 9 from PMG this week to see how that can help us find nuevos. Long story short, It worked (funny how that works when we follow the church leaders). We were able to find quite a few people. Not all of them will progress, and one has pretty much denied further lessons, but it feels like we´re doing something now. Like we are really searching for people to come unto Christ. Sad story, our investigator O. started working on Sunday..... And we haven’t been able to meet with him for more than a week. I’m a little bit worried about him.
Other Than that we have a zone conference tomorrow, so it should be really cool because president went to this big mission president meeting! Also I don’t know if I told you but they just changed the number of attendances needed to be baptized from 3 to 5!!!!!!!!!! SUPER COOL. But it doesn’t make that big of a difference for us haha.
Bueno eso es todo!! adios mis amigos! Que tengan una buena semana!
