Week 38 (Huamantla, Tlaxcala, Mexico) Dog Battle 1v5

 Holaaaa


    This past week was pretty good but nothing too crazy happened. Another pday where we did nothing except the usual's lol. 

    Also another good week for missionary work! We found 11 new people to teach, we lent out 28 Books of Mormon, contacted over 70 people, had 11 lessons, but only 2 people showed up to the church that we are teaching. During the week we lent a Book of Mormon to this guy sitting on a bench in the park. He said we could come to his house the next morning but what we did not know is that we were going to have a meeting the next morning. So we didn't get to go. The next day we were knocking doors and towards the end of the street we knocked this one door and it ended up being that guy! We ended up teaching the Plan of Salvation to him and his family! It was a really good lesson and they seemed very interested! Hopefully we can find them a way to go to church.

    I think it was Thursday that we finally got to do some service! We were trying some appointments we had scheduled but those ended up being canceled so we went to an inactive old couple's home to see if they needed some help. They did, so we helped clear out some weeds and grass in their yard. They really appreciated it. It was super hot as well, so they made us wear a hat lol. Also during that I saw a big dog fight between their dog and 5 other strays. So it was a 1v5! To make a long story short the members dog ended up winning and came back with some sick battle scars!

    I also got a sinus infection, still got it but it's all good, I'm pushing through it. It also doesn't help that we are high up in the mountains so it makes it even harder to breathe lol. 

    I believe that's all I got for this week. Crazy how fast time flies so I am just trying to soak it all in. 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!

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 ...
