I am completely fried. My sunscreen does not have any effect on me. And it is HOT!!! It got up to 100 today, and with the humidity, the heat was incredible. And it is just starting!!! I have never experienced heat like this in my life. When I return in a couple month is when the heat stops and the rains start. So I just have to deal with it for the rest of my mission. Let's go!
This week was great! We went on divisions
twice with some Elders that have not been working very well and that
have been a little disobedient. I had the opportunity to go to their
areas and to help them out. It was a really good learning experience for
me. I helped these missionaries better their teaching skills and I
helped their investigators come more unto Christ. We had a great lesson
in one area and their investigators accepted a baptismal date for the
18th of April. It was very uplifting for the Elder I was with and I felt
that I left that area having helped that missionary feel the spirit of
his calling. I love being a Zone Leader. It is very difficult and
draining, but the spiritual experiences are increasing ans I feel even
closer to my Savior.
This week, we were also able to have a
baptism. Ronny was baptized and confirmed this week. We found him my
second day here in Villa and he was very prepared. He went to the
General Conference and he had a very spiritual experience there. He
accepted being baptized right off the bat. He will be a great member of
the church.
We also had a couple interesting
events that happened this week. First of all, someone busted into our
ward building. They broke the back door down and entered, trying to get
into the clerks office, but they could not. So they vandalized the whole
church with ketchup. It was a mess, but they were able to get it all
cleaned up and ready for Sunday. It really disgusted me that someone
would do that. They even vandalized the pictures of Christ. It just made
me hurt inside. But they will be judged. And I fear that that day will
not be pretty for them.
Also this week, we
were on our way to do divisions when we passed by the stake center and
there was a man laying down outside of the gates. As we approached, we
found that he was abnormally thin and pale. Then a fear entered into us
that he was dead.... Because it did not look like he was breathing and
he was laying in a puddle of yogurt and his eyes were wide open and he
did not respond to us. So we were like uhhhh what do we do. So we
called an ambulance. They came and we found out that thankfully he was
not dead and that they were going to take care of him. What a relief. We
pass by many drunks laying in the sidewalk completely passed out but
this guy was different. I was glad that we were able to help him.
Well that was my crazy week. This week will be even crazier I believe. I will send some pictures here in a sec. I love you all.
