Potential

I am excited about the baptism we had this Saturday ya!!!! It was a kid who is super great and his grandpa baptized him. Everyone asks if he really is 8 but I saw his ID and well, he is. But he's a great little kid and should do great. We never had to encourage or stop by for him to get him to church, to the interview or the baptism. He just came and was always super excited.
Last week I was super pumped for the work. We had some people fall through last week but we have some great potential this week and this month and for October. It's crazy to think of how fast time flies here. We are already planning October.
Oh and today I got the dreaded "Trunky" Email from the Mission Secretary. They asked for my flight details of how to get home and my parents info. So he should buy that flight fairly soon. Dang it's crazy to think about.
But this week went pretty well. Everyone is working great and we have potential to start doing some super great things. I know that the Lord will help us out a lot when we just put our part in. Either way things are going great and I know that the Lord wants to bless us if we just get lost in the work.

Also today was funny cause we started wrestling with the other elders and then they started flipping over the beds and just making a mess but it was pretty funny. I really thought it was pretty entertaining. We were all pretty tired afterwards. But it's funny cause I remember seeing things like this when I started my mission and saying like "dang this is weird" but I guess my humor has changed haha.
Either way things are going great and I'm excited to see what we can do in the future.

My new hijo

Well this week I got the news that I would be training again. This time it would be different though. I found out that he would be a gringo. So I'm a ZL that is opening a sector and training a gringo. So lots of stress. But the good thing is that my comp is super smart and he will be great as soon as he starts to understand the people more. He already speaks really well. Way better than I did. He just needs to get the ear for it and he will be super great. I'm not too worried,
But we hit the ground running. The ward mission leader showed us around the sector and then we placed 2 dates for the 13th of September. We even have more opportunities but we just gotta keep working.
Our ward had had really low attendence for a while so they had threatened to make it a branch. They said that if there wasn't 100 people at the ward conference then it would be a branch. And we had... 118! So we got saved. It was the highest attendance since like January. So we just gotta keep working and it will keep going up. But don't worry. I am just glad that the ward is ready to work.
So this week I really got to see how many blessing the Lord gives us if we just put our all into the work. I remember getting to the field and feeling horrible for a while but after just trusting in the Lord, I got to understand the language little by little. But overall its just great to see all that happens to give us success. But either way things are going super great.
We had alot of oportunities to do good this week and we were able to do it. I know that the Lord is with us when we put our effort into the work. I know this is His work and that it depends on us on if we want to receive the blessings. I know that this is His church and that is was restored by a prophet. I know that it is currently lead by a prophet and that it will always be led by a prophet.
I'm excited to see what blessing we can receive this week.
