Wowow,
honestly, I have never been so tired in all my mission. Me and my comp just
wake absolutely exhausted. I feel like a zombie half the time, but we are
honestly having so much fun here in Ciudad Jardin!
Tuesday- I had an intercambio with Elder Segovia from Bolivia. It was super fun, we had
a fair amount of citas and we are super excited for Patricia, who is
progressing a lot. She has said in her prayers that she is excited to get
baptized in the true church of God! She has amazing faith.
Wednesday- We had a training with Presidente Baquerizo focused on how to use a new
reference system from the church and how to find new investigators in various
ways.
Thursday- We were able to have a great weekly planning session and we were able to find a new
investigator that we contacted at 8:50 at night on Sunday.
Friday- I was the mission secretary for a day! It was really different but fun as I was able
to run errands with the secretaries, pay bills and such, and after we went
and worked in the area. It was super cool to see some amazing families that
some of my friends on my mission have been able to teach and baptize.
Saturday- We did service for 4 hours and then we were able to have a mini intercambio
with some other Elders. We were able to contact people in a park using candy
and questions of the soul, which was super awesome! It has been a blast with
Elder Sorbonne to contact in very different ways, from just randomly
speaking English to people, stopping cars and giving them pamphlets, to using
social media with members to find new people to teach. I am so grateful
for this time that the Lord has allowed me to work in His work.
I
definitely felt the Lord guiding us as we focused on how to help the Zone. We
felt the need as companionships to give blessings of comfort to our companions and it was a super amazing opportunity.
I truly know that the Lord loves us and
is always willing to guide us.
Love,
Elder
Parson
