Week 84- Photos from the past forever

Photos Sent From the Past Forever

Week 73

This week´s been pretty slow, to be honest, haha. 

We stayed in the house all day for Christmas and New Years. We were allowed to watch a couple of Disney movies, so we borrowed the mission´s projector and watched some Disney movies :) We also played Monopoly ALL DAY. It was pretty legit. 

Next week we have to have all of the stuff ready for when the new missionaries arrive. Elder García also goes home on the 12th, and I will be with Elder De La Cruz, from Guatemala. This upcoming week we´ll have tons of time to find new investigators, which I´m excited about. 

Thanks for all of your support, love you all!

Week 71 - Merry Christmas

So this is the only P´day that we´re going to have before Christmas, and I´m almost positive that because we´ll be Skyping our families next week, I´m not going to be writing for another two weeks.

Everything´s going good with my new assignment. We´re in a trio now because my future companion, Elder De la Cruz, had his comp go home this week. So now we´re going to be in a trio for the next three weeks until Elder Garcia goes home to Quito. I´m doing good.

I´m super excited for Christmas. All of the office Elders get to eat at President and Sister Dennis´s house. So that´s pretty neat. The entire mission went to the temple last week, so that kept us pretty busy. We get to go this week.

On Tuesday, Jefferson is going to do baptisms for the dead for the first time, so I might get to see him there.

I took a ton of pictures from last pday, but my memory card just got corrupted, and it´s not letting me send more pictures. But that´s okay, I´m sure we´ll be able to fix it.

Love you all, Merry Christmas!

Here are photos of Office P-day.

Week 69 - Working in the Office

Well, this week´s been quite a twist. I´ve been sent to the mission office.
I´m the new  Materials Secretary. I´m in charge of making sure that everyone has all of the stuff they need in their houses and to proselyte.
I´m also in charge of all of the mail that the missionaries receive. It´s pretty cool.
We get to be around President Dennis a lot.
We also live in front of the temple. Also, I get to know like, every missionary and where they live.
So yeah. I´ll be writing on Saturdays from now on.

Also, my new comp is Elder Garcia from Quito. He has 23 Months in the mission....

Week 67 - Christmas Conference

This week definitely had its ups and its downs.

With the ups, we had a baptism! Jostin was baptized and confirmed. That family´s doing fantastic. Also, we bumped into Jefferson at stake conference. I almost died of joy. He´s doing super well. He received the Melchizedek Priesthood! He said that as soon as he completes one year of being a member, he´s going on a mission :)

We had a lovely Christmas Conference with the whole mission. President Dennis focused on Family History Work. We are now teaching Family History and Eternal Marriage as a part of EVERY lesson and EVERY contact.

Also, today´s my companion´s birthday! We woke him up early and sang to him while he blew out his candle. I had Elder Herrera secretly buy a cake and a Coke for later tonight (My comp still has no clue) So yeah.

And well, with the downs, we had NO ONE at Stake Conference. So that was a bummer. We had to drop a lot of investigator this week, but that means that this week we´re going to find new people :)

So yeah. Happy Thanksgiving!

Week 66

Saludos From Monte Sinaí,

So this week´s going to be our Christmas Conference, and because of that we are having our little pday today from 9 to 11. So yeah.

 This week we have a baptism! Jostin, the son of a single mother whom we reactivated, is going to be baptized and confirmed on Friday =) He has to be confirmed at the baptismal service because this week is also stake conference.

 The Zambrano Family, a family of three, is preparing to be baptized on December 5th! They had a date for the 28th, but it fell through because yesterday they left at 5 in the morning to Bastion Popular because Their grandmother had an accident. But, they accepted their new baptismal date very well, and they´re reading in their Book of Mormon and experiencing changes in their family =)

The Castilla Family (Less actives) are going to be rescued this Sunday, and Their 9 year old son, Jared should also have his baptismal interview. Juan, our recent convert, recieved the Aaronic priesthood yesterday! He´s doing fantastic. We´re working with his sister now.

 We also had an amazing investigator go to church yesterday. Luis. We´re going to extend a baptismal date with him for December 5th.

 And yeah. I´m stoked for the Christmas conference. We´re probably going to the temple. Next pday is my comp´s birthday, so that should be fun too.
