2018-10-01 Meeting New Friends, Trying New Things, Seeing New Places.


Made a new friend. . . . .

. . . . . and met some others.


Tuesday: It was a good day. We had our district meeting. We set goals for our district and we started this group prayer call. Every night before we go to bed, we call and have a prayer for our investigators to attend church. We did this because all of our numbers for assistencia (attendance) are super low and we need to get it up. After the meeting ended, we had our final goodbyes because there are a couple hermanas in our zone that are dying so we said bye and that was it. Right after, we had divisions with Elder Rasmussen and Elder Apaz. They are from Castex and their bus didn’t come until the following day so they came into our area to proselyte with us. It was great! Me and Elder Rasmussen got 6 new investigators and it was good. I learned how I need to handle certain situation I did not know how to get out of and it is all good.
 





     District activities.  We had so much fun!





 

Wednesday: Today was divisiones con Elder Taylor again.  We were in his area.  For lunch, we made grilled cheese sandwiches!!! Super piola (cool) and we were so glad we made them. We haven’t had them for a while.  We later went out and had a lot of success in his area.



Thursday: Today was an ugly day. It rained and poured and there was literally no one outside. We helped the zone leaders paint a room in the house because it was really bad. Hermana Bentley made them paint it so we helped with that.



Friday: We had a good day. We had a lesson with one of our investigators and it was really good. He let us in and we talked for a little and it was good. He has a lot of questions of the soul and we tried to answer them as best as we could. They were all from Lesson 2 but we did not give the pamphlet for it last time so we taught lesson 1.  It was a great lesson! He is super piola (smart) and I can tell he has been prepared for us by Heavenly Father. He is super open and I can tell he is trying to find the truth and the way and we are here to help!  Hopefully we can continue to progress with him and he can come to church!



Saturday: Today, we went to Castex for their Capilla Abierta. It was about a 2 hour bus ride to there and we hung out at the chapel and helped out. We did good. We found a group of jovenes (youth) and they all came! It was genial (very good)! Their chapel was super weird and chico (small). It was like a small church like and evangelico iglesia that looks like a tienda (store) turned into a church.  Their pila bautismal (baptismal font) was even a pop up pool! 















Sunday: We went to church and then we celebrated a birthday of a Hermana. She is 86! dang! It was good. They had a lot of food and a muy rica torta (very rich cake) with candy and a whole bunch of stuff on it!







Monday: We made pizzas with the other Elders and they were so good!  Barbecue chicken pizza!  Yummy!



Learning to make pizza from scratch-pizza crust in the tool box, other breads to follow.
