so the worst thing about this week is that i forgot to pull any pranks on my comps today.
but this week was kinda weird. there was a sick elder in the hospital so my companion (im in a trio) went to go hang out with him so i was with the guy whose going to be my companion without the guy who is teaching me to be the secretary. so i did a ton of stuff as a secretary alone, which was interesting i had to send everyone who is going home in june their itinerary and i noticed an elder who had a ticket to arrive in SLC instead of st. george which is kind of a problem.
haha doing stuff without being trained just requires a lot of double checking and logical thinking.
Im good. the area has been progressing as far as i can tell. we keep finding new people to teach and contacting people who accept us but the people we´ve taught like once we´re having a hard time continuing wiht the teaching.
i think last week i told you guys about some lady named guadalupe, mabye not. she was someone who went to an open house at the stake center then someone put an appt, with her and didnt tell us and the sisters were at the church so they taught her and she got passed over to us cause she lives in our area. super cool lady the only part that kind of stinks is that this week is like mexican spring break so everyone gets off work adn they left town for the week. so she couldnt come to church we´ll see if she´s back on sunday.
idk. i think on thursday we went with president all morning to clear up the closed areas. during the wave of missionary work the number of missionaries climbed quite a bit. and now its coming down to normal so in the next couple of months we´re losing 30 more missionaries. which is like 15 more areas that are getting closed. and its not really a number thats going to climb a lot more.
and when they close a missionary apartment someone has to go and get the mattresses bedframes the tables the stuff and store it somewhere. that somewhere is a room here in the offices but it wont be sufficient for everyting.
Ummmm.... what else...... not really sure.
´´I can’t remember what I’ve told you lately… I was admonished to not write to you about some of the things I’ve been writing to you about… sorry, if I’ve made serving harder—never my intention.´´
- mom whats that about? who told you not to write me? And stop worrying that i get trunky when i talk to you. i dont. like on christmas when you like stopped talking to me cause you were worried about that..... please stop worrying about that.
And.... what else. dad my dog looks too fat. haha yes i am looking forward to general conf. always a great time as a missionary.
so little miracles we were contacting in the street and we knocked a door and it was a less active member.
we knocked on a less actives door and before he came out some women did in the door next to the one we knocked and was really nice so we talked to the member and after knocked her door again and she was like ya come visit me the elders visited me a while ago.
a less active family we found has like a ton of problems like drug problems, and its always a little frustrating visiting them because of that. well we get there the other day adn the 16 year old that always was inturrupting and being noisy and stuff was way more mellow and came and listened and opened up and said he wanted to stop drugs and be baptised and go on a mission. pretty cool.
What else.... theres a door that we´ve knocked on and pretty much everytime we knock someone else comes out of the door and we teach them the gospel. and they accept. the problem is helping them continue cause we have like three seperate potential inv. that have had the first lesson or part of it and then when we go back we find someone else. ugh.
thats all i remember at the moment love you guys.
Later. love you guys!
