Week 67 & 68 (Bosques Puebla, Mexico) Zone Leadering part 2

 Hola mis amigos!

    I am not gonna lie I totally forgot to write an email last week jajaja! Nothing too special happened last week so you guys didn't miss much. Although transfers did happen and I do have a new companion. I am training him to be a zone leader. This week I won't forget though. Last pday was pretty fun because a member invited us over to their house to play some games and eat! That was pretty dope! Other than that pretty normal day.

    This week for missionary work was really good actually! We taught 14 lessons, gave out 26 BoMs, found 7 new people to teach, we had 9 lessons with a member present, only 3 people we are teaching went to church but 8 converts went so thats good, we challenged 33 people to be baptized, and we had a baptism!! What a dope week, la verdad.

    Grecia got baptized after waiting like 3 years to be baptized because her biological father wouldn't let her, but God did a miracle. She was baptized and confirmed Friday in Veracruz. We weren't there personally but we were there virtually jaja. 

    We also had leadership council this week and it went really well. I learned so much and we thought of some many things that we can do as a mission to get better and to achieve the standard of excelence every week! We had a really cool and spirtual zoom meeting with our zone about the stuff we talked about and about all the new things we are going to start doing. One thing that I really like that we thought about doing are daily prayers during the day. Not just your normal prayer for the food or when you leave the house but specific prayers throughout the day. We are going to start saying a prayer no matter where we are at 1pm and 4pm to ask the Lord to guide us to his children that are ready to hear our message. Also after every mircale we see we are going to start doing a thank you prayer to thank the Lord for giving us that miracle. Something really cool that even all of you guys that are reading this can do!

    I feel like I have already written too much, but stay in tune for the next email! We are also gonna have 2 more baptisms this week! I hope you all have a 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 ...
