Well this week was good. It went by super fast but it was good. We are pretty much reopening this area so we do a lot of contacting which can be a little tedious to contact for entire days, knocking doors. It’s the work and we were able to find some positive people. We have found a few cool families and stuff but still have a lot of work to do to get this area started. The new area is good but really the same it’s just on the other side of the street in the same ward. My house is a lot bigger and we have water all day so I can shower normal and lunch is good. Everywhere you eat it’s mostly rice any ways so it’s the same. The area is flatter and has better roads. The water in my new area doesn’t taste so much like a pool so I think it’s all good but I was thinking about still using my filter. On Friday the president told me that I was too skinny and that I had to gain weight so for lunch I ate lunch which was rice and scrambled eggs then I ate half a pizza because we ate pizza as a zone and then I drunk a litter of grape Fanta so at least I’ll gain some weight haha.
This week some of my old investigators from my old area were baptized so that was good to see. This is a good area here it just needs to get going. We have done a ton of work though. This week we did a lot of work with members so that was good. There is a kid named Brayan here. He will be a good missionary. In my old area he worked with us every Tuesday from 9 in the morning until 9 at night and now that I changed he came here on Thursday to work with us. He worked on Tuesday with my old companion and then Thursday and Friday with us.
Friday we did divisions. It was funny because the ward had a missionary come home on Friday but he wasn’t to be released until later that night at like 6 and his family thought that he had to be in a companionship with the missionaries. They didn’t know that he could be a companion with his dad or mom or friend. Really it doesn’t matter much but the mom asked us if he could work with us on Friday because he had to be with the missionaries so we were just like oh of course. Poor kid, as soon as he got home he had to go to work with the missionaries haha. He said he hadn’t even slept in the last 40 hours. But it worked well because he showed my companion where a bunch of less actives live and me and Brayan found some good new investigators.
The work is doing good. Last P-day we ate pizza as a zone and today we are going to go eat with the George’s family. When they found out that I was still around they told us to come over on P-day for carne asada. That will be sweet. They are such a nice family.
Also this week we had the zone interviews with the President. They were good. It was chill. I get along well with the president so the interviews are good. His wife always checks our apartments so we had to stay up late cleaning. Our apartment was super dirty from the other Elders. Now it’s not too bad we just lost points for a dirty fridge.
Peace and Love,
