Week 89/90 (La Libertad, Mexico) Conferencia de Estaca

 Hola mis amigos,


    Sorry for not writing last week, no excuses just totally forgot jajaja. The past two weeks have been pretty chill. Really nothing crazy has happened.

    The past 2 weeks for missionary work were pretty slow. I don't really remember the exact numbers so I will just make an estimate. We found around 10 new people, taught around 20 lessons, gave out around 40 BOMs, only had like 1 or 2 people go to church that we are teaching which kinda sucked, we contacted around 100 people and that's really it. We are working with this family of 5 but really only 1 is progressing but hopefully he can get baptized soon to be the example for his family. 

    Sunday we also had Stake Conference which was pretty good. The family of 5 didn't go which didn't help but overall it was good. I think the best talk was the talk my President gave jajaja Presidente Montejo. After the conference we took pictures in front of the temple with Presidente and talked for a bit about the new missions and new President. He also told us that this week we will have an interview with him to find out what mission we we be going to or if we are staying in the North (the area is getting a third mission called the Puebla East mission, currently North and South). So next week stay tuned for that and transfer news. 

    Work has been kinda slow but we are trying to get things going. These last 12 weeks of my mission I will be trying to work really hard and just keep grindin

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 Puebla. We are also supe

  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. Yesterday we had a total of 274 people go to church! It was

  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 us if we are in a new mission. Yup, I got reas
