Buenas todos saludos. This was an interesting week, first one of this transfer and we got 6 New missionaries in the zone and only 2 went home. So now in the zone it went from 18 to 24 missionaries. 10 of which are still greenies.  But all good things DC was good per usual and then transfers on wednesday was interesting, lots of driving. Cuz we swapped our car and then had to get an oil change and a tire is now low. But still, good lessons with friends and whatnot. English class was interesting and I ende up Teaching a member about the plan of Salvation while my comp taught some english to another guy and the hermanas talked with another guy. Lots of moderating lately but all good, we are having an open house for the Church next saturday and our ward wants us to dress in all White and be greeters so thatll be fun.  Had Zone council as well and the Stake President came which was the first time I actually met him in my 5 months here in Gresham. But it was good stuff, ate some ven...

Hola Hola ¿Qué bola aseres? This week was pretty good, last week of the transfer and this is the first time for me having pday on a Monday since the mission just changed that. But it's ok, change is good, had our ward Noche de Hogar and it was fire. Been doing more inactive work, and not too much finding. But yeah our trio didn't last more than a week, thankfully, it was way too much stress and driving and not much work getting done either. But pretty average week minus on Saturday I finally turned 19 and made myself a gluten-free cake to save my intestines from lots of pain, and went out to Taco Salsa and had dinner. Generally all is well, church was good. We had a full second hour class with our friends and recent converts for the first time since I have been in this ward. And this morning we got transfer news and I am staying with my son and DL still but the zone just got like 6-8 missionaries so they switched up the districts. Had a pretty ok last pday of the transfer...

Buenas todos, saludos It was quite the week this week, good and stressful but hay vamos. Crazy week in a trio covering 2 busy zones and 3 areas total and dividing the time was awful. But we still had fun and did the work. Not in the trio anymore thankfully, lots of stress gone but it was fun. Had all the usual stuff and also was able to go to MLC which is Mission Leadership Conference and get info and direction from the mission presidency and it was good. Got some really good stuff out of it and also had a good Sunday.  Really tired and whatnot but the work dont stop and The Lord carries, literally. DC was per usual and probably decent enough, got a really cool aztec poncho that is sick and a cool hat, really feel like a Spanish missionary now. Really busy ad good day today as well and got lots of things to improve on. But counsel with the Lord in all things and it will all Be ok. Also pdays will now be on Mondays so that's cool, change it good.  Love soccer and am getting pre...

Crazy Is The New Normal

Hey everyone, (saludos) This week has been a good one, Had our noche de Hogar and my old comp from last transfer came back with his family and it was fun. Our soccer night was at a different building than usual but it was fun and definitely am getting a lot better at soccer. I went on 2 exchanges this week, one with the ZL on friday and we had our friend Rodilin pass his baptismal interview and then a member took us out for tacos and it was epic!  Then on Saturday had his baptism and it was not very packed, except for my old comp and his fam, because our members were at a quinceanera. But it was awesome and he bore fire testimony outside of the font before and it was so powerful!  Kinda botched the confirmation a lil but everything was done properly just my spanish cramped during it. But then went to another baptism to give talks for it and it was cool, Lots of spirit-felt days lately! Had a member meal after that, which was awesome and we had some good foo...
