General Conference 4/4

 Hey guys what's going on? 


This week was good, it's always hype to be a missionary during general conference. Some of my favorite talks was from my homie Dallin Oaks, Elder Soares and Elder Christofferson. They all just kinda talked about locking in and upping our game as disciples of Jesus Christ. We had some friends come to the church Sunday morning and so that was hype. They all really liked it.










Other than that, it was your average week. We are trying to find more people but the hard part is we start the day off with like 4 or 5 confirmed lessons and then they all fall through and we just don't know what to do lol. But we are seeing little miracles everyday. 


We were able to talk to Pablo this week, he's a 22 year old who has been inactive for a while but wants to come back. He's super cool! He wants to serve a mission, and came to every session of conference and took notes. We had a service activity helping a family move, and then after it started pouring. But we had confirmed with Pablo and so we just send it and literally starting running through the streets in the rain. We got absolutely soaked haha. I also rolled my ankle pretty bad but it doesn't hurt anymore and it was just a fun time. 






Today it was funny because we went to a big mall to pick up the suit I bought last week and we saw President and Hermana Lythgoe there! Today is President's birthday and so he was buying himself a new suit. So that was a fun little interaction. Also a little awkward because we were supposed to ask permission from him to go to the mall but we forgot 😅 but he didn't say anything haha. 




Scripture of the week:

Alma 33:22-23
...cast about your eyes and begin to believe in the Son of God, that he will come to redeem his people, and that he shall suffer and die to atone for their sins; and that he shall rise again from the dead, which shall bring to pass the resurrection, that all men shall stand before him, to be judged at the last and judgment day, according to their works... And then may God grant unto you that your burdens may be light, through the joy of his Son.

A theme I noticed in the conference was definitely repentance. I liked sister Runia's talk about how heaven isn't for the perfect, it's for the forgiven. So let's just keep relying on Christ.

Stake Conference and Last Transfer

Image
  What's up homies. Ya so these past 2 weeks were pretty good but also weird. We had stake conference and also zone conference with Prez and the wifey. Stake conference was fun-ish, just a long 2-hour meeting haha. But they had some good messages. But my comp and I were super tired and slept through a few talks, but we were hidden in the corner so don't worry about it.  But ya also we had the zone conference.  That was fun but also strange to think that I only have one left! It was great, talking about setting goals and that the Lord is speeding up the work and we need to as well.  President announced some big changes in our mission, which will really make it like a normal mission but it's gonna be very different. For example, we have district council at 6pm on pday. So we don't work at all on pday. Now it's gonna be on Tuesday morning so we can work at 6 on pday. We also are now supposed to be out of the house by 10 in the morning! I'm really happy about that o...

Party Week

  Hey y'all how's it going. So this week was another good one! We had 2 family home evenings this week and both had a lot of friends and fun games. One was with the family Varon, mafe, los elderes, Alex and Andrea, and Helmer on Friday. Then on Sunday night we were with Maribel y Sebastian, family Varon, Nancy and her kids, and Diana y Johnny. Both super fun!!  Also on Sunday we moved houses because the rent in the house we live in is going up a ton this month, so we are switching it up. Although we were very busy, we didn't end up moving our stuff until around 10:30 at night lol. The new house is nice, with a pretty fancy couch. Our bedroom is nice cuz we have a big window that gets good airflow, natural light to make it easy to wake up, and a decent view!  But ya other than that just your average week here. We had almost all of the recent converts in our area come to church, and 2 new people! Like I said, they are willing to come once but for some reason they don't co...

We Good

  Howdy there partner. This week was a good one, just working hard to get people to come to church and get baptized so that they can recieve more joy and peace in their lives through Jesus Christ. And this week was pretty good! We had 4 people come to church this week, and most importantly Carolina came and she has a baptismal date for June 29th! Imma miss it by a few days but it's chill. But ya it was a good week. We had a fun little activity on Friday and it rained so not many people came but we had some friends pull up and we shared about how to prepare for the second coming and the book of Mormon helps us a ton. Then we played a little game and that was fun. Then had a small treat and headed home.  Also I've been enjoying a lot more fast food this past week. I've only got a few more weeks to enjoy the delicious salchipapa and buñuelos so I'm trying to live it up. We had a little family night with the family Paniagua Diaz and that was fun. Shared a video from the chu...
