Wow sounds like you all have been pretty dang busy... especially Blake
with the girls:) hahaha Does that kid have a beard or what? Because that might
be the key.. jk haha.
Well it was another really fast
week for me. I really can’t believe how fast time is going by these days… it’s
pretty dang crazy. We stay so busy in the barrio, there is so much work here. We
are always teaching and Elder Rodas is really great. He loves to have the best
numbers, so we pretty much be tearin it up right now. Which means doing a lot of work haha:)
Another Elder from my MTC zone moved into Valles today. His name is Elder
Jones. So I’m with my whole zone from the mtc. I really find that kinda strange
but it’s so cool.
There’s an Elder named Elder Marecos. He from Paraguay
Dang, there are so many people from home out on missions right now…that
is really great. The mission really changes us dudes for the better. I’m
really glad I made the choice to serve a mission. I look a lot happier now in
all of my photos than before the mission. It’s like I got the spirit of Dios
with me or something.. Oh wait yeah that’s right, ha I always have the Holy
Ghost with me. I’m so grateful for the Holy Ghost and the strength and
blessings and guide I get to receive everyday!!
So this week Elder de Hoyos and Elder Martinez, and President Jordan
came and talked to all the missionaries.
It was a really awesome experience and pretty spiritual. I
got to take some really good notes. I’m not going to lie though…. I almost
fell asleep. I couldn’t believe how
tired I got hahahahaha. But it was really good and learned a lot from
these members of the 70.
So this week none of our investigators
with baptism dates attended church so we were pretty upset about that…mainly
because we put in a lot of time and work with them. We have 4 baptism dates for
the future. One we will be able to baptize pretty soon. Her name is Vanessa she
is a really smart girl like 11 years old. She is ready for
baptism.
Oh yeah, we worked out today!!! My companion wanted to go to the gym and
so we went and worked out. He is pretty ripped. But I am
more beautiful:) My companion played semi-professional soccer so he has a
lot of energy and walks super fast. So I can walk super fast now…like
faster than mom walks so that’s pretty cool:)
This day is the day for cambios (changes) so I have another cambio with
my companion. The cambio now is a normal one though, back to 6 weeks. We had a
short 3 week this last cambio because a lot of missionaries came to the mission
this week because they finally got their visas.
So I love my area so much,
Valles is so awesome!!! The people in every area have some much love for me and
they all treat me like I’m their grand child… I love it! They ask me what’s my favorite food and they
make it haha.:) I’ve eaten so much pizza since
I have been in Valles so that is really good haha:) My companion is
pretty serious but he isn’t as bad as he looks in the photos… haha he isn’t
good at photos:)
Well, I love you guys so much!!! My time is about up…I hope everything
is going good. Send some pics of baseball. I haven’t got your package yet… But I
will I hope.
Love you all so much and miss and
pray for you guys always! Goodbye, love you!
mucho amor:)
