WEEK 61: Achievement Unlocked: 17 New Pople at Church??

-

 Gooood morning, good afternoon and good night depending on when you read this. 


This week was a grind. Every day we were inviting people to church, confirming more visits and teaching baptism. This past sunday we had 9 new people in our sector come to church and 8 new people in the other elders sector come! (We share a ward with 2 other elders) for a total of 17 new people 💪

As of right now we have 3 people on date for baptism and at the end of this next week we will have 6 people with a baptism date 

This week the other elders and I made this one food called patacones (you gotten try them) 

Today for Pday were going to go play soccer and then chilling in the church and watch movies and stuff 

Spiritual Thought: 

Today I feel impressed to talk about free agency. And I'm going to put a video down below for you all to watch. I watched this video with the other elders one night and it does a really good job explaining what is agency and how we use our agency. 

Act for Themselves


I love yall so much! Y espero que tengan una buena semana!

WEEK 18: Achievement Unlocked: Happy New Year!!

 Feliz Año!!  I'm not gonna lie the New Year was CRAZY here. There were fireworks going off literally everywhere. All along the horizon and people were lighting fireworks off in front of our house so they were above us too. It was awesome.  There are these things here called munigotes and they are paper machete statues of every USA thing you could think of and at the end of the year they fill them up with dynamite and just light them off in the streets. We weren't able to watch any unfortunately because we had to be in our house at 6pm yesterday.  Last night we played 5 crowns because one of the elders in my house brought it from home and we had sparkling cider as well. It was super cool because that's what my family at home ended up doing for new years as well. It was cool to live that tradition 4000 miles away lol. We had transfers this past week and I am still in my same area in the peninsula with my Guatemalan companion AND we're finally not in a trio anymore....

Week 99: ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: BOM Miracle

  Wsg yall  First off I just wanna say that the Book of Mormon is TRUE. Like holy cow every single time I read it there is no doubt in my mind that God truly called prophets to the Americas and he called them to write their history and dealings with God  Increíble  This week we contacted a evangelist-Christian with the BOM. We asked her if her kids wanted to accompany us in the lesson but she said no because they follow her and her religion. She explained to us that she already knew Christ and that she didn't need to know more about him. We offered to give her the BOM and she said, "No but please give it to someone who has an open heart and is willing to listen to your message" So we left.  A couple minutes later a truck pulled up next to us and called us over. He explained to us that he was the son of the lady we contacted and he said, "Give me the Book, I want to read it" WHATTT milagraso.  1 Nephi 14:1-2 1 And it shall come to pass, that if the Gentiles ...

WEEK 29: Achievement Unlocked: The Office

  This week started off like normal. A little slow, not really teaching anybody, the usual. My comp and I started making plans on how to improve the sector and we were talking about writing a song because we got permission to play guitar throughout the week.  This week was also transfer week. My comp and I didn't think much of it because we white washed the sector, which means we both started at the same time. We hopped on a call and I heard, "Elder Johnson has transfers". WHAT. How the heck do I have transfers? I was distraught, sad, angry. I didn't want to leave the sector or live with new elders and a new companion. I also had only been in my sector for 1 transfer. I eventually said bye to all the members, and packed my bags.  Transfer day. We drove to the office and I was nervous. I didn't know where I was going or who I would be put with. The way transfers work here is that the zone leaders tell you that you have transfers, but you don't find out what you...
