Week 60 (Bosques Puebla, Mexico) Intercambios con los Asistentes (Exchanges with Assistants to the Mission President)

 Hola mis amigos!


    This week went by so fast, its crazy! Last pday we didn't really do anything just a normal pday.

    Missionary work was good but we are still having trouble with getting people to church. We found 11 new people to teach, we gave out 27 BoM, only contacted 37 people so our ratio from people contacted to books given out was so good, we taught 16 lessons, 5 of those were with a member, only 2 people came to church which was a big bummer but this week we are going to work even harder so we can start baptizing again!

    This week we also had exchanges with the assistants to the President, Elder Lee and Elder Johnson! It was really dope. I learned so much with them and especially how to work better with the members which will help a lot. It was just 4 Americans in one apartment so it was pretty fun to say the least jajaja. 

    Nothing to crazy happened last week but it was still a good week. This week we have transfers and we will find out Tuesday night if one of us gets transferred. I honestly have no idea what will happen. Anything could happen because we are receiving 20 missionaries and only 2 are leaving so it will be crazy. In my next email we will see what happens.

    Well that should be it so I hope everyone has a really good week! 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 ...
