Week 30 (Los Alamos, Puebla, Mexico) Getting offered an a "Drink"

 ¡¡Hola!!


    Pretty boring week not gonna lie. Not much happened and another slow week for missionary work. Didn't do anything for pday so I can't really talk about pday lol.

    Missionary work was slow this week again. We were supposed to have a baptism but didn't happen because her husband wants to get baptized together with his wife so it isn't a bad situation. It should happen next week though! We had like 30 contacts, only gave out 7 Book of Mormons, had like 15 lessons 6 out of the 15 we had 6 members join us but literally no one went to church. When I say no one I mean no one. Our goal is to have 15 people we are teaching go to church but no one showed up. At least Diana, the most recent convert, who I baptized is doing really well so that's good. Don't worry though we are working really hard and will do better this week!

    Now I will explain the title lol. On Friday we were heading to a member's house to have a family home evening with them and some of our friends. While we were headed there an inactive member has this little pop-up shop that sells these types of drinks that have alcohol in them and she offered us one. We of course said no haha. She did end up making us one but without alcohol lol! It was very good but it was very blue so it made my mouth very blue. 

    Yesterday my comp and I had the opportunity to help some members move. It was very fun to get to do some service again! They didn't have that many things but the desks and dressers they had were pretty heavy so it's safe to say we got a good workout in lol. I also had to sit in the back of a pickup truck in the bed of the truck because there were only 2 seats and there were 4 people lol. First time ever doing that and it was really fun. I was safe momma. 

    Not much happened this week, so I don't have much to write about. My comp and I are doing well, we are getting along and work really well together. I also did not get sick so that's a plus! I hope you all have an amazing week, and thank you all for the emails and prayers!

Con mucho amor,
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...

  Hola mis amigos     Another great week here in La Libertad. Pday last week was pretty boring because the other Elders didn't play spikeball so we had nothing to do jaja.      This week for missionary work could have been a lot better but was still good. We only found 2 new people to teach but they are escogidos and one already is baptized jaja, gave out 21 BOMs, only had 9 lessons but 6 out of the 9 were with a member participating, we had 4 people go to church and one of them will be getting baptized the 12th of may! It wad a good week especially since my comp and I had our first baptism together.      We found Matias last Monday and invited him to be baptized that same Friday and he accepted! He is a maquina jaja. Great kid. This week we might have another baptism so stay tuned jaja.      The open house of the temple ended last Saturday and we are finally starting to receive more references. Also now our ward is huge.

Week 91/92 (La Libertad, Mexico) Bautismooooo, y ¿Pueba Sur?

  Hola mis amigos,     I think I forgot to write again last week, but I honestly don't remember because the weeks go by so fast. I honestly don't remember really anything from 2 weeks ago so I will just talk about this past week jaja.      It was a pretty good week here in La Libertad 2. We only found 1 new person to teach but she has potential, we taught around 8 lessons, contacted around 50 people, gave out 20 BOMs, 1 person we are teaching came to church, well technically 2 but he got baptized yesterday! Overall it was a pretty good week.      The baptism was really really good actually. We found Erick by contacting him in front of his house, giving him a Book of Mormon and setting an appointment to come back and talk about the BOM. 4 weeks later he was baptized! He is going to be such a good miembro.     Wednesday we had a small little get together with another zone, Presidente y su esposa and just chilled and talked. Also told ...
