Villahermosa: Week 30 "Cambios"

10 junio 2014

¿Que tal? 

Hello everyone! I had a very eventful week! 
First off, I have reached the 8 month mark in my mission. Feels like no time at all. 
Monday night we made brownies in the church to celebrate. They were so good. 

Tuesday we had District Class, and after we had a little get together/ fiesta type thing because the next week was changes. So we brought brownies and the sister brought cookie cake. It was a good time. Also Tuesday is when it just started pouring out of no where and we got soaked. Just drenched. And it really has not stopped raining until today. 

Wednesday we got a call from a young man in the ward saying that he wanted us to come and talk with his friend. so we did. He was 17 and we started teaching him the 1st lesson about the Restoration. It went super well and i challenged him to pray and if he received an answer, to be baptized. He accepted. We got super excited and we asked for his address to go and visit him and his family. Then came the disappointment. He did not live in our area. So we passed the reference and moved on. It was a bummer but at the same time it lifted our spirits. 

Thursday we had a family night with Abish and her family. I brought all my muffins and cookies. They loved it. They had little things to cut out cookies and it was so much fun. i am going to have to send pictures next week because the computer is being stupid. sorry.

Sunday we got a call from the Zone Leaders telling us that Elder King was leaving. It was sad and happy. But they also said he was being replaced by Elder Rios. I started getting so excited because I was going to have my first Mexican companion. So monday morning, I sent off Elder King. Then I waited for a while with some other Elders until Elder Rios arrived. We saw a bunch of Elders come off a bus, including Elder Clarkson who is now in my zone, and there was not one Mexican. I was like wait, this can not be right. Then the whitest American came up to me. His name tag read: Elder Rios. So that was that. Another Gringo. From Utah might I add. It was pretty funny. We all got a laugh. He is really awesome though. We get along great. 

Well thats all from me! Have a great week. Love you all.  Hasta Luego. 
 
Elder George
