Week 35- I am not training!!! Wooohoooo!

What you can see across Lake Titicaca is ALL of my sector.
What you see is Jalihuaya... which is the part that we visit least.

Dear Friends and Family,

 

So first off, my companion has transfers… which means I now have to direct the area to my new companion (which thankfully I am not training this transfer) and also help the 2 new elders that are now going to be in my sector too. So tomorrow night, I will know who is my new companion. I am kind of nervous.

 

So this week we worked a TON. We planned a Battle of Talents. The Ward usually doesn’t support a lot in the activities, but this activity had a LOT of success and helped bring unity to the Ward!!  It was great. A lot of the Ward ended up coming and we all laughed and enjoyed the skits and such.

 

Well, last week we went to visit a family that my companion had met a few months prior. The son had wanted to be baptized but his Dad said no. Well, when we went to visit, the mom, Betty, told us that she thought God wasn’t answering her prayers. Well, she told us how her husband had recently left her for a 16 year old and that she needed peace in her life. Well, we went back to visit her and she and her daughter and son are set to be baptized the 23rd of this month!!!  She luckily has a lot of friends in the church to support her because she is going through a lot of trials.

 

I feel like I don’t know what to write this week. This next week will definitely be crazy busy, but with transfers, luckily P-day is tomorrow so that I can rest and prepare for the week to come.

 



My companion and I and Maribel.
We went to Jalihuaya for the day to visit some less actives over there.

Also, we have been working with Romulo. He is definitely SUPER odd. It is hard to get him to directly answer a question. I think he should probably study philosophy because he talks like a philosopher. If he has a question about chastity, he’s not going to directly ask, he’ll ask what is the definition of love. Hahaha so we have had a lot of fun listening to him and trying to figure out what he REALLY is asking. But I have definitely learned patience and to listen and understand the person. He has a lot of desires to follow God, but doesn’t have a solid testimony in Jesus Christ, nor in modern day prophets, so hopefully we can help him!

 

Anyways, I think that is pretty much it. I love you all and really do appreciate the prayers and letters and emails and all of the support!

 

Love Always,
