August!


We went to the temple this Tuesday! Super great! We left in the morning and took the train! We went with my convert Johnathan, and Leyder who is an awesome member who is sending his papers in this month! We got to the temple, and Johnathan wasn't ready! He got a little nervous, and to help him out, He baptized ME! So I got baptized by my convert! It was pretty cool! We ate Subway, and I saw Lesly! My other convert from Bello Horizonte! It was super awesome to see how she is doing, and she is getting married with a Return Missionary Venezuelan! Awesome!! 

We found a whole bunch of cool investigators this week! Lots of interesting people, but None ended up at church! But we did find a girl of a less active family who have been coming back to church, and we didn't know that she wasn't baptized! Mini miracle! Her name is Celeste and she already knows everything, and has read the Book of Mormon until Alma! So we are super good with her! 

Someone slipped me a fake 20 sol bill buying pizza at night the other day! Chambone....

We are trying to teach the family that were going to get married! Alberto and Patricia! They showed up to church after a week of trying to contact them! We will see!! It all depends if Patricia makes that decision!

We are going on a lot of divisions in the ward to find more people, to cover more ground! We are contacting a lot, finding new references! All of the good mission stuff! We are trying to help the ward unite itself! Because they don't even do activities! We have been trying to do one for a LONG time, and I hope it finally happens!!

Thank you!

Hey! We had another Baptism!!! Celeste Lopez! One of the quickest baptisms I have seen! We found her I believe 2 weeks ago and is the best! She is the daughter of a less active member! She had already read up until Alma, and knew all of the Plan of Salvation! So we taught her the commandments, she attended church, and was baptized this Saturday!! And it is a little bit of a miracle, because they are finishing Vacations, and now they have 0 time to talk to us! They are completely busy! So it was basically her time for the lessons, and to get baptized!  Before the baptism at 7, (8:30 Peruvian Time). At 4 we ended up at a service project with the Elders quorum! We destroyed a rock wall behind a house and had to carry the rocks/Dirt in buckets. Then we all took turns with a sledge hammer at a big rock in the middle that the Jackhammer couldn't touch. But we left to try and teach someone, and then right to our baptism! But it was great! Last P day, we just ate at a Mexican Peru...

Hey everyone!!! These two weeks in Casablanca are super great! We have a ton of investigators, members to help, and our ward is pretty nice! The only problem is, it is placed on 4 large hills! well... 6 I believe, but I have the 4!  There is a long road that leads up to nowhere, and the right side is mine, and we split the other side for the other two elders, Jardine and Cruz! I am here with Elder Delgado! From Manta Ecuador! I saw him in my first area for 2 transfers, and already know him a little bit!  I am not District leader anymore, I kind of didn't want to this last transfer, it got super super hard! My district had a lot of problems! And I didn't know how to handle it! But I did learn a TON! And I was able to see Elder Godoy from the 70 in a training, so at least I was a leader to listen to him! He came and basically said, wow! You guys are the best mission in the world! And then we asked questions for 2 hours.... It wasn't really a training more of a motiv...

We need more INCAS!

Hey howdy hey! So this week we started off with another District Monopoly, I didn't win this time... Sadness! But we had some Family home evenings, and it was all great! Then on Tuesday we cleaned up pigeon poop from one of our investigators Abi! We found some baby pigeons, along with one big dead one!  But the rest of the week was pretty normal! We spent one whole day knocking on doors, and found maybe 1 person, but we still haven't had an opportunity to teach! Haha! So a lot of people, but not too much success here!  I have been drinking Mate! It is the best! It’s an argentine thing, and I am thinking of buying myself a mate! Its super good like a bitter tea, but you can add sugar! We go and drink it with Junior before we have to sleep! It’s a fun way to sit and talk!  We had 12 investigators in the church this week! Lots of people needed to attend and didn't! So we have plenty of work! Really it’s just teaching the same lessons, and then helping with...
