Week 10 (San Salvador el Seco) Spaghetti With Meat Sauce... My Favorite

 Hola a todas!


    This past week was really good but also really difficult at the same time. Last p day we finally got to play some sports! We played soccer, basketball and volleyball. It was so fun to finally play sports! 

    Tuesday we were in a trio with one of the AP's Elder Covarrubias. He is dope and is a really good missionary. We ended up putting 5 people on date for baptism with him! One family of 4 and a reference. He taught me a lot and I learned so much. 

    Wednesday and Thursday we were in Puebla for a multi zone conference. It was really fun, we slept at the secretaries house, ate pizza,  and played UNO. Then Thursday was the conference. It was good but I didn't understand anything, so that's great, lol. Hopefully the next one we have I can actually understand more so I can give you all some wisdom haha. Thursday was also Thanksgiving but they don't celebrate it here so we didn't do anything for it. I did get to call my family so that was nice. I ended up heating up and eating a frozen burger, and Pringles my parents sent me haha.

    Friday was probably the most boring day ever. The only thing that is worth writing about is that I had my favorite meal at a members home. Spaghetti with meat and red sauce. It definitely reminded me of home.

    Saturday and Sunday was our district conference basically stake conference. It was good and could understand a bit but it was honestly a little difficult trying to stay awake. After the Sunday conference there was a whole bunch of rice, meat, and tortillas for everyone! I also love how everyone eats tortillas with every meal. It's definitely a nice addition to meals. While eating, my comp accidently got red sauce all over my white shirt so that was nice. 

    Not much happened this week and I didn't take many pictures only because I have been here for a while and haven't seen anything new. 

I hope all is well with you all!

Love, 
Elder Bailey

Week 93 (Atlixco, Mexico) Transfers

Image
Hola mis amigos,     This week was good but also a little sad. Pday was a normal pday like always.     So as you can see by the title, I got transferred. I wasn't expecting it at all because I only have one more transfer left in my mission, so just a little odd but that's life. I spent Tuesday night and all of Wednesday saying bye to everyone. Jose, a really cool member, gifted my comp and I paintings he painted himself, pretty sick. The goodbyes were pretty hard but I'm used to it by now. But these goodbyes were a little harder because I had made some amazing relationships with a lot of the members.      Thursday I officially got transferred. We headed to the offices and I had to take a van with like 12 other missionaries because we all got sent pretty far away. Saying goodbye to Elder Young was hard as well, one of my favorite comps. I am now in a city called Atlixco. It is actually very pretty over here. A lot more green when you go down south in Pu...

Week 86 (La Libertad, Mexico) Bautismooo

Image
  Hola mis amigos     Another good week here en La Libertad 2. Last pday was just a normal chill pday, nothin crazy.     This week for missionary work was a lot better. Finally got into our groove. We ended up finding 13 new people to teach, taught 16 lessons, 6 out of those 16 were with a member participating, contacted over 60 people, gave out 29 BOMs, had 2 of our friends go to church, which were refs from a member and we had a baptism!! It was a really good week.      The baptism was great. Rosa Linda was ready since the first lesson. Such an escogida. She was so emotional and the spirit was so strong. She also asked me if I could baptize her. What an honor. It is such a special blessing to be able to help one of Gods children find the correct path back home, to our real home. I love missionary work.      Elder Young my new comp is getting used to the mission just fine and I love how he has no fear and not afraid to make mistake...

Week 75 (Xoxtla, Mexico) Hay que trabajar

Image
  Hola hola mis amigos      This week was a weird, crazy but also good jaja. Pday was just a normal pday. Hopefully we do something interesting next week.     Oh yeah, I also got transferred to an area called Xoxtla. It's a little far from the center of Puebla but it is a really good area. There is so much work to be done. Also the area is divide into two so 4 missionaries in one area. During the meals with the members it's pretty fun because all 4 of us eat in the members home pretty crazy actually. We do that when we have intercambios but here it's everyday.      We are basically opening a new area because, where we work, the Elders before us and before them never went into the area jaja. We don't know any members there and there was like no one being taught. So this week will be a lot of getting to know the members and finding people to teach through our personal efforts and hopefully a lot through the members.     I don't really...
