Que tal?
This email will probably be shot cuz I don't even remember
anything that happened this week.
Things of note:
We had zone conference! Our mission is finally swapped over
to the new missionary Handbook which means that now during the week I can read
any emails or messages I get during the week. Still can't respond but it's cool
I guess. A lot of things are changing from a set rule or policy to "just
use common sense". It's frustrated a lot of people just because it's a big
shift from 'know and follow every rule exactly' to 'just do what you think is
best and what a representative of Christ would do'. It was awesome as always to
see President & Sister Rasmussen, they are the best!
We had a few lessons with Gerardo this week, he's doing
pretty good. He's an eternigator but he's honestly progressing at a pretty good
pace right now. He has a really strong testimony of a lot of important things
in the gospel, just doesn't feel like he can get baptized yet (it's a long
story). He hasn't been super consistent with coming to church so we taught him
about the sacrament and how that is the real reason church is so important.
Afterwards he couldn't stop telling us how much sense that makes and how we
changed his mindset about church! It was really good.
We also had a few lessons with the Peñas but they flaked on
church again. They didn't have to work but they took an odd job at a members
house and decide to work through church even though the member told them they
should stop and go to church.
We finally met a referral Yadira this week and she is super
cool. She works a lot though so we will see how much we realistically can work
with her. She has member fellowship already and has a lot of interest. She has
a super cute son named Cesar and he's awesome.
Anyways, that's it! This is the last week of the transfer.
I'll probably be staying here there is no reason for me to leave.
Los quiero!
