Hola
Familia!
Okay
I have to admit, mom, my week wasn't very exciting either. I sat down and as I
was reading your letter, I realized, hmmmmmmm..... yeah not to much but I will
do my best to expand on the stuff I have to make it worth reading :)
So
first thing, last pday we went to....... wait for it.... play bowling!!!
surprise! haha but it was really fun and I pulled off a 163. (the picture dad
sent me of me bowling when I was 5 is awesome!) While we were in the bowling
alley, you wont believe what song came on! Mr. Jones! haha it made me think of
all the times going for drives with Dad in the Fiat when we had that. like 1000
years ago :)
On
Wednesday, we had transfers again. (The worst part about being a Zone Leader)
we were in the bus station for a solid 12 hours on Wednesday. Tons of
missionaries passed through and it was fun/boring/long/exhausting haha but we
had 8 changes in our zone. I am really excited to see how everyone works this
next transfer, we have seen a lot of people happy with their new areas/companions/districts.
We are also trying to see how we can help more as Zone Leaders so that everyone
is excited and working hard. Everything starts with setting the example so we
have been working on everything to set a good example.
We
are still working with D, R and their families to have a big baptism
on the 31st of May. That will be my last weekend in this area and it would be
sooo cool to be able to finish on that! D and O his brother are going
back to school which has been a little hard because we cant visit them that
much, but we are still trying to have FHEs and stuff to help them!
We
met this lady named G this week. We feel like she is very prepared to receive the gospel and everything. We were going to go on Saturday and we had
planed to give her a baptismal date but on friday night someone broke into
their car and lit the whole thing on fire. It was torched bad.... We felt
really bad but there is nothing we can do ya know?? But we are going to go
tomorrow I think, her daughter is only 12 and already started reading the BOM.
I
had to go do my fingerprints for my visa again because they lost the last ones,
that was actually really fun because we got to spend time with the secretary
Elder Hill, he is really cool and we get along really well. I will have to go
again next week to finish the papers for my visa. Luckily they do all the work,
i just have to show up and sign a couple of things and wait in lines haha.
Sister
N gave us an awesome reference this week! her name is I, (kinda an odd
name but she is cool) She was gonna come to church but had to go to her Sisters
house. She is 19 and her mom died about a year ago. She had a lot of great
questions about the church and when we invited her to go to church she was all
in! She is going to come to FHE tonight and we are gonna continue teaching
her!
Well that's it for this week, i hope you are all doing well! have another great week
and think about what time will work best to call for skype! next week we can
organize all of that! love you guys!!
