a visitor called brother
I apologize for being so lazy on my emails and not giving a whole lot of
details but this week was good! Of course the main event of Alex and
the crew coming out and going out to lunch with them! That was soooo fun
and actually really cool cause part of me thought that it would be a
little tough but was selfish and wanted to do it anyway but it ended up
being really good actually as I talked to all of them about my mission
and helped me realize although it is a little hard I love it! There
really is no other place I'd rather be although I do think about it all
sometimes I know that I am happy here although things are rough. So as
far as our teaching pool there isn't a whole lot going on but we have
been trying really hard. Our focus right now is a mom and daughter Maria
and Lilly they are just soooo awesome they just moved and we helped
them a bit but they are really starting to grasp it all we asked them to
be baptized and maria said yes but she doesn't know how to swim! It was
super funny! THey are really are main focus. We are teaching this
family that just loves us the Herreras and their story is their son got
baptized and is in our ward but thats it. So we're working with them
just bringing our love for them and they're feeding us. They're coming
slowly but they're coming. As far as the whole training thing it is
tough. I've really had to take a step back and really think about
everything mainly just like how I can do it and stuff it has been super
hard and It's going though. All I'm trying to do is just be the best me
and try and pick myself up and work work work. I guess that's all I can
really ask for! So I guess crazy story for the week is Elder Ledezma and
I went and tried to visit this investigator we haven't been able to see
her so we thought we'd go try it was a long ride but luckily some
member picked us up and grabbed our bikes but as we got there there was a
nice tv thrown outside with holes in it and just looked like madness.
Basically all Hell broke loose in this house. The lady just found out
her husband was having affairs and she was telling us how she saw demons
and stuff and basically it was out of control! I really had no idea
what to do/say plus she was freaking out in spanish so i caught like
half of it! It was just nuts then finally after a long time we left and
as we're about to leave we got a call from Elder Vega and he just got
scared when he was pooping and saw blood so he immediately thought to
call me! Apparently I'm the poop master of the mission! hahahahah but
other than that everything is going well. I really got a pick me up
yesterday when I felt like I had to reprove my district a bit about
dinners so I did but afterwards that night one of them Elder Fischer,
really showed his appreciation for me and told me I was doing a great
job as DL and I really needed that so everything is awesome. Yesterday
we had stake conference too and Elder Villareal of the 6th quorum of the
70 came and he spoke and it was sooooo awesome just talked about
everything really but it was the advice he gave us missionaries after he
said as a mission pres i had elders come in at the end and tell me they
wished they would've worked harder, DONT HAVE REGRETS! It was awesome!
We had an RM talk from NY NY south and He knew Elder Sharif so we took a
picture and he was gonna send it to him small small world. Sharif is in
Bermuda!! hahah Well family I'm excited to hear from you all and
probably won't be able to call until like 6 my time if thats okay?
sundays are super busy! But i'll try and call during the day cause we're
trying to skype but we're looking for members that have it so plan on
at least a call at 8ish yout your time and maybe skype! I'll call you to
confirm that though earlier! I love you all!!
Love,
Elder DD
