Nothing major to report on this week.
We’re alive and well here.
We had a Zone Conference on Tuesday. I think it went super well. We were
able to teach the missionaries and get them excited about the missionary
work. And we’ve seen the numbers get better and stuff, which is great.
I’ve been studying a lot faith and the Atonement. That’s really what is
most important in missionary work and this life. We always need to increase
our faith and repent. Someone said during the Stake Conference here,
“Revelation Continue reading →
I don’t know what week it actually is. But I did
realize that I only have 6 transfers left after this one. It’s super weird
to think the mission is so close to being over.
This week we had a couple interesting things happen.
Monday: I was transfered, like I said last week.
Tuesday: We worked like normal. Didn’t have a whole lot of success, but we
were out looking for people all day.
Wednesday: We had to go to Arequipa for our monthly leadership council. We
were in the bus for 6 hours, like normal. Continue reading →
I was transfered again! I definitely wasn’t
expecting it this time. Especially because President told my companion
during the interviews we just had that we were going to finish together in
Bolognesi. But now I’m in Granados, Alameda. My Zone/Stake doesn’t exist
anymore. Now I’m Zone Leader of Alameda with Elder Zibeti from Provo, Utah.
Elder Ancajima is now my District Leader instead of my companion. Lots of
changes, but I’m sure everything will work out and that it all happened for
a reason.
We had an interesting week! Very
busy like always.
Monday: We had a free P-Day. Everyone just did their own thing. We
went and look around at the Cachina. It’s a huge flea market with
super cheap things because the people come from Chile to sell, or
something like that. We didn’t find anything too interesting. The
Elders like to go and find neck ties. They’re usually like 1 Sole,
which is like 30 cents. We went in the afternoon, though, so most of
the venders had already left. Then we just kind Continue reading →
So last week one of the companionships in
the Zone had a baptism. One of the Elders is a District Leader, so my
companion and I went to interview the investigators. Everything went
fine and they got ready for their baptism. My companion and I went to
support the investigators we interviewed. 1 hour before the baptism I
got the hiccups. It was the first time I’ve had the hiccups in over 5
years, literally. I thought, “It’s fine. The baptism isn’t for an
hour, so they’ll just go away.”
