Dear Loved Ones,
Sounds like everything back home is going alright!
Shout out to Hailey for rocking that dance recital! If you
can figure out how to send the video, that'd be cool!
Shout out to Elder Fredrick for once again being a spiritual
GIANT! *and for calling me yesterday*
Shout out to the family for going rock climbing. you ROCK!
:)
This week went alright I think. In the past few weeks, I've
felt like we've been seeing more and more progress with investigators, and a
lot of our numbers have been on the rise! a lot of things really have been
going pretty well for Elder Muniz and I! This week seems to have been a little
slower for us, but we've been working really hard, so despite our lower
numbers, I feel like we've done as much as we can.
The first (slightly boring) update was this Saturday, Elder
Muniz and I were asked to give a training at a Zone Training meeting! I had
asked Elder Muniz to give a training a couple weeks ago during a District
meeting about how to work with members. And whatever he did, he did an
excellent job. So they asked him to give the same exact training again, but
this time, in front of a larger crowd. It was the same as the first one, except
for this time, we split it between the 2 of us. It went pretty well I thought!
:)
The only investigator that we're working with that is
getting close to a baptism is Mariela Irama. She's just a miracle. I love her.
Unfortunately, one of the requirements before a baptism is that she would need
to have attended 3 or more sacrament meetings, and she works on Sundays.
Tonight we're giving her a church tour and teaching about the sabbath day.
We're going to ask her to request this next Sunday off so that she can attend
with us. I'll let you know how that goes next week! :)
Transfers are next week, so I MIGHT be moving to a new area
soon. I'll find out before next week if anything changes. I've been in the same
area for about 5 months now, and I LOVE IT. I've really gotten pretty close to
the ward, and I feel like I've really helped quite a few people here. But I'm
still excited to see if I'll be moving somewhere else! honestly, it doesn't matter
to me either way. It's cheesy, and I'm sure everyone says this as a missionary,
but this really is the Lord's work. No matter where you're living, or who's in
your area, there's always someone there who will benefit from coming closer to
Christ.
Here's some random pictures for the week to make up for the
less-than-exciting update! :)
This is a traditional Mexican sombrero that an awesome
member named Jose Largaespada gave me :)
Just a random dog that came up to the window while we were
painting a lady's house. Elder Muniz and I helped it to have more swag.
