Week 54 (Huamantla, Tlaxcala, Mexico) 3 in a row!?!

 Hola mis amigos!


    Another fantástic week here in Huamantla. Last pday was really fun. We had a whole zone get together and just played a whole bunch of sports all morning and after noon. I got burnt jaja. It was really dope though, definitely made me miss sports a little more jaja.

    Missionary work was also awesome. We found 13 new people to teach, we gave out 27 BoM, we invited 14 people to be baptized and 8 accepted, we had 14 lessons, we had 10 people we are teaching watch general conference, 88 contacts and 2 baptisms!! It was such a good week and really didn't get to work that much because of general conference but still a really solid week. 

    On Thursday we saw a crazy miracle! It was like mid day and we were going to the park to give out some BoM but we actually ran into Marlen. Her and José were working on getting married so they could get baptized. We knew that but we didn't know how close they were with it. We talked with her and ended up saying they are getting married Saturday and want ti be baptized the same day! It was crazy news and was not expecting that at all! We were witnesses to their wedding and my comp and I each got to baptize! It was so cool to be apart of that and they definitely have a special place in my heart.

    General Conference was sooo good! I learned so much and always feel inspired to be better and get better. I challenge all of you to go back and listen to or read all of them again and try to get something new out of it! I know I will! We literally have the opportunity to hear the words of a living prophet and his apostles!

    Not much more happened this week but overall a great week! I hope everyone has a great week! Think Celestial! Keep grindin!

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. Yeste...

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 ...
