Week 85 (La Libertad, Mexico) Entrenando

 Hola mis amigos


    Last week was pretty crazy. For pday we went to centro with 4 other Elders in our zone. I bought some ties and new pants because something funny and pretty embarrassing happened while we were there. I was going to buy pants anyways so I went to go try some on just to see but turns out that I ripped my pants without even knowing jaja. Who knows how long I was walking around like that jajaja. I didn't like the pants I tried on so we hurried to another store and bought some nice stretchy dress pants jaja. It was pretty funny not gonna lie.

    We also had transfers last week. We got a call Wednesday morning from Presidente! He called both of us as trainers! Its my third time training and I forgot how much I love it. 12 out of the 14 missionaries that arrived are American so my chances of training an American were very high. To my surprise I am training an American jaja. My new companion who I am training is Elder Young. He is from California, he is 19 and has a desire to work. Hopefully the Lord lets me finish his training, because the 2 other Elders I trained, I didn't get to end their training. Vamos a ver. 

    Missionary work was good but not until the end of the week. Tuesday we had intercambios with the zone leaders so we weren't in our area the whole day. My old companion had been in the area for a while so he wanted to say bye to a lot of them, so we didn't get much done. Thursday we tried to work but here in the mission the new missionaries that arrive get put with some Elders for the day to give them the "welcome" but there was very bad comunicacion about when the Elder who was going to stay with us was going to arrive, so a little better that day but not much. Friday was when I picked up my new companion and that's when it started to get better. We ended up finding 7 new people to teach, we gave out 20 BOMs, contacted around 40 people, taught around 10 lessons, had 2 of our friends we are teaching go to church and one of those friends is getting baptized the 12th of May! This week is going to be a lot better, I can feel it.

    Friday night on our way back home we ran into members who are from another ward and a completlt different mission. They stopped us and asked if we had eaten dinner and we said no so they said hop in jaja. So they took us to eat some tacos in our area and had a good time. It was very nice of them and made our night. Also something funnt was that the Dad of the family has the same birthday as me jaja. 

    I believe that is all that happened last week. I hope you all have a great week. Read your scriptures and remember

Keep grindin,
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 ...
