Week 33 (Los Alamos, Puebla, Mexico) Great day to be a servant of the Lord!

 ¡Hola mis amigos!


    This week was such a good week but was still a lowkey week. Pday was just another normal pday like every other week. Nothing to talk about for that day. 

    Missionary work was even better this week compared to last week! We ended up giving out  40 Books of Mormon, we found 14 new people to teach, 14 people we are teaching showed up to church and we had 18 lessons! It was so awesome to have all that happen. One cool thing that happened during the week was that we were walking on the street Wednesday trying to give out some Books of Mormon. There was this family of 4 walking back home from school and we both had an impression to go talk to them. We ended up walking and talking with them all the way to their house and randomly let us in! We read 3 Nephi 11 with them and taught a little about the chapter. At the end of the lesson we gave them each a Book of Mormon and asked if they would like it if we came back another day to teach them. They said yes! It was such a special experience and really cool to see how the Holy Ghost works in our lives. 

    On Tuesday we had a companion exchange with the Elders in Resurgimiento. Usually how exchanges work is that one Elder would come here and the other would go to the other area but our President said that from now on all 4 Elders have to be in the same area where the District leader is. Since my comp is the District leader they came to our area. This day was very weird because all of our lessons kept falling through but between the 4 of us we gave out 12 Books of Mormon! 

    That's all I got for this week. Nothing too crazy happened but still see the hand of the Lord in the work we are doing. I hope you all have a good week!

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 ...
