Baptism Week

Image
Pretty crazy week this week but all good and finished off strong with a Baptism!  Pretty chill start to the week on monday and Tuesday. Wednesday we had Zone Conference and it was fire, probably one of the more spirit strong Conference for me honestly. It was awesome then just a few lessons that day and Book of Mormon night which was also pretty good.  Thursday is when it started to get a lil crazy, so our roommate got sick so we went on a half day exchange and I took his New missionary into Spanish for the day and we had some fire lessons and lots of work, then the next day had Zone council and did a half day exchange with the ZLs. That was also good, good lessons and Keiver passed his Baptismal interview and we played soccer. (Me in my church clothes cuz we didn't have time to change) Then saturday hit another half day exchange with our roommates and I stayed and worked on the Baptismal program. It was fine, then switches back and went to pur ward Thanksgiving dinner and it ...

Another Week Serving The Lord

This week was definetly a week. Didnt feel like it but it was, pretty interesting as well.  DC was pretty good last week, President Botchways showed up out of nowhere and scared me. But it was good then helped some people pack up to move a lil but they were not ready so we couldnt do too much. But then had a pretty chill day.  We were trioing on Wednesday since our roommates comp got his Visa and went to Taiwan, it was pretty average day, him and my comp act quite younger then their age sometimes but it was fine. Had our Noche del Libro de Mormón and helped some sisters move apartments. Me and my comp fasted on wednesday night and Thursday morning for our friend Alejandro to have a change of heart and not get baptized in another church, we dont know if he did or night cuz he hasnt really answered us...but yeah had some good lessons on Thursday and a lil ZLC.  Did an emergency shopping run on Friday since we had like 0 food in the apt minus all the snacks my mom sends me. ...

Hillsboro For Another One!

Hola a todos saludos This week was a good one, lots of milagros and bendiciones. English class this week was less of a success as in our friends didnt really show up but lots of recent converts and members did! Went on exchanges on wednesday with Elder Burger, he is finishing his 2nd transfer and is awesome. Had prayers answered, from trying to get in contact with friends to making food more filling. We had a lot of lessons this last Friday, just one after the other and then a fire soccer night as well. Went on exchanges again on Saturday with our roommates and I stayed Spanish with Elder Cefalo, who is a reassignment to Taiwan and is leaving this wednesday. Sunday was kinda good, a lil slow and rainy but good. All the missionaries going home shared their testimonies over zoom and it was sad seeing people ive served around go home and made me realize I only have less than a year left. But yeah anyways we got transfer news and im staying in Hillsboro with Elder Gordon, so more work to b...

Hola todos!  This week was insane, started off with our pday being on tuesday so we had dc on monday and all that stuff. Weekly planning had a colorful discussion with my  comp but made some goals and destroyed them this week. We went crazy getting members to lessons and getting New people. Had a pretty busy week and all had fun stuff For Halloween the entire West half of the mission got together from 6pm-9pm and there was a basketball tournament and also a movie! So I watched the movie which was a new one about missionaries called "Escape from Germany". It was really good. I was on Sim for a day since my comp didnt want to, but had a fun soccer night and English class went really well as well. Pretty normal things though, church was awesome since we had people show up. The last 4 weeks we have hit 0 everyweek until yesterday we got 7.  Fasted all day which was awesome, I was about to end it at dinner but didnt feel like eating even though I was really hungry. So I didnt ...
