Elder Zach Bailey's Puebla Mexico Mission

  Hola a todos!     Another super fast week and a lot happened. Last pday was actually crazy. While we were getting ready to leave for district council it started just raining cats a dogs, its like the sky was falling! We literally had to walk through a river. It was actually pretty fun but the only bad thing is that all my stuff got soaked. It was an experience.     Tuesday at night we found out that Elder Zepeda would be getting transferred  to where the secretaries are to wait until he goes to Brazil where he was originally assigned. It was a hard goodbye but I know he will do great things in Brazil. During that call with Pres he told me I will be training again! I got another greenie!      Transfers happened Thursday but I wouldn't get my comp until Friday so I had to go to Puebla to work with some other Elders. Friday I found out who my comp is. His name is Elder Whetten, he is from Chihuahua, understands Spanish  but doesn't really...

  Hola!     This week was honestly pretty bad, not gonna lie. Pday was pretty normal but we went to Tlaxcala to have a pday with other Elders  and played volleyball. It was pretty dope. Then when we left we didn't get home until like 10:15 because of all the traffic because this day was the day no one sleeps, literally. People were on the streets all night just partying and getting drunk, it was wack. Don't worry, we made it back just fine just with a little pain in the rear end lol.     Missionary work was not good at all. No one wanted to listen to us, everyone was just in party mode all week. We didn't find a single new person to teach, we had no one go to church that we are teaching, we did have over 70 contacts and we gave out 12 Books of Mormon. I don't think I gotta say much about this week.      We were supposed to have a baptism but it didn't end up happening  but we have faith it will happen this week.      Satur...

  Hola!     This week was basically the same week as the last one, so I won't have a lot to wrote about. Pday was normal, but my comp wanted a haircut but they cut it really bad, which kinda made me laugh. Oops. We also were playing volleyball which has been really fun. Unfortunately, I squatted down a little too much and rip..., yeah, ripped my pants. A little embarrassing but I just covered myself with with someone's jacket and finished to game. A member also bought me a pair of pants so that was nice.     The week wasn't that bad, we are just having trouble with people coming to church, even members. Mainly because of the fair. We are going to work even harder, especially with the members help so we can get people progressing because we have a lot of people who can and who want to be baptized but its hard for them to get to church. It's not that its hard but they just find excuses that's all.      We ended up finding 5 new people to teach, we o...

  Hola a todos      Sorry for not sending an email last week everyone, I got sick last Monday  and basically slept all pday lol. Nothing crazy has happened the last couple of weeks but were pretty good, not exactly how we wanted it to go though.     We were supposed to have like 3 baptisms the past couple of weeks but they didn't end up happening because one needs to get married still, which is a huge problem here in Huamantla and the other due to mental difficulties.      Other than not having baptisms missionary work overall was very good. In these past two weeks we found over 15 new people to teach, we had over 20 lessons, we gave out over 50 Books of Mormon, we contacted over 200 people, and we have over 10 people with a date to be baptized! The work is moving along really well but the hardest part is finding people that are actually married and want to go to church.      I believe it is officially the r...
