Transfer News

Image
Hello everyone this week was a short one since we had p day wednesday and now today so not much went on this week.  This week we got transfer news and it was a boring transfer I guess. Almost my whole zone is staying the same with changes to 3 elders I believe which is crazy. Me and my comp are staying together and are staying in the same area. The area I'm in is super pretty and the people are really nice, it is just hard to find people because of how small the area is so a lot of people have already heard about the gospel.  This week we got to paint a member's house. She chose yellow and it looked pretty interesting when we were painting it but by the end it didn't look too bad. it took me back to when I would stain fences in daybreak hahaha. I also was given the assignment to throw down a 15 minute talk Sunday and was told late Friday night so that was awesome. I think I'm getting more used to speaking with people cause I didn't find myself nervous when it was ti...

What's up everyone, this week went super fast which is always good and things are well. Me and my new companion get along super well which is good and are working hard as well.  First off got bucked by a goat this week if you wanna hear more you can message me haha. This week not much happened that was too crazy, I had to go to immigration today to do some paperwork to get my ID. It was fun to see some elders I haven't seen in awhile but also exhausting so it evens out. This week we made some big progress with a family that has been listening to missionaries for years. They came to church two weeks ago but we could tell something was missing. After a long lesson and a good talk we talked out some questions they had and believe they will start coming to church weekly which will be awesome. We are also talking to a little kid we met playing soccer. He came to church once but we are hoping he is actually interested in the message and not just playing soccer with us haha. Other tha...

New Week New Comp

Hey everyone, so much has happened this week but I still feel like I don't have much to write about haha.     This week we had exchanges and I got to go with my first comp elder marker who is awesome and we get along so well. It was a relief to kind of go to an area with progressing members and be able to just teach as planned. He's my zl right now so I get to see and hear from him quite a bit which is awesome. school     As some of you may know my comp I had went home because he finished his mission mid transfer. It was a little weird to hear someone talk about going home because I'm still relatively new to the mission haha. Anyways, this week I got a new companion and his name is Elder Ocampo. He has a little over a year on the mission. He is awesome and went to Jordan high school. and me and him click pretty well. I think it'll be a good rest of the transfer and hopefully a good next transfer with him too.     Anyways not much has been happening with our...

New Year

Hi everyone, I hope everyone is doing well. The work is for sure going here and I love it so much. I love talking to everyone and I'm starting to get to the point where I can just talk to everyone and just joke around with them which is awesome.      This week even though it was new years we didn't do much. We had zone conference and it was so awesome. I had my interview with president and he is the best and you can truly tell he loves us. After that we just did our usual work for the rest of the week. This week I was able to get my comp out of the house more which was really good and we saw the success of working hard which hopefully helps him want to work hard everyday! He leaves Tuesday for his house which is so weird to me. I'll get a new comp Monday or Tuesday and most likely be with them for 2 months.      Anyways, for the new year we went to bed at 10:30. Woke up at 12 to all the fireworks and sat there until they stopped around 12:30 and tried to go...
