Well this week was pretty awesome. We had a lot of stuff happen:
1.
Well this last Monday I was with my companion, Elder Mayhua, and during
the night we got a call from Elder David (assistant) and he said that
we actually did have transfers and that Elder Mayhua was leaving to
Santa Anita and that I was going to receive a new companion. So right
now I have a new companion and his name is Elder Serrano. He is from Venezuela and he has a little more than 4 months in the mission. For
having so little time in the mission he definitely knows a lot and we are
going to be blowing up this area.
2. So right
now, due to missionaries going home on weird times, there are 3
assistants to president in the mission. And right now one of them have
the assignment to be a traveling assistant. and what they pretty much do
is go to an area and work with those missionaries and to train them.
Well this last Friday Elder Erickson came to our area and we seriously
blew up the area. My companion and I are super excited to be working
like how Elder Erickson showed us and we are definitely going to continue
like that and find more and more people.
Well this week was pretty awesome and I am super excited for this transfer
and the next one. Right now our goal for baptism for this month is 2 and
our pre-goal for July is 6. But this week President wanted us all to
see the devotional that President Nelson did with his wife for the
youth. To be honest President Nelson is super awesome and that
devotional was super inspirational. If you didn't get the chance to
watch it I would recommend that you take the time this week to watch it.
But for those of you who did get to watch the devotional President
Nelson invited all of the youth to do 5 things:
1. do a 7 day fast from social media
2. do a weekly sacrifice to give time to the lord
3. Do a thorough life assessment (stay on the covenant path)
4. Pray daily for ALL to receive the blessings of the gospel
5. Stand out. Be different. Be a light.
I
have already been talking to some of the youth in my ward here in Peru
and those who are actually doing it right now are telling me about all
of the experiences that they are having. If you are doing these things I
would love to hear about all of the experiences that you are having.
