This past week was amazing!

This past week was amazing and a lot of cool things happened. First, we had a good week of proselyting and we were able to find some good people and some good families. It's sad that I won't be able to teach them for very long but it looks like they can progress really well. 

This week I was able to go and do a work exchange in my other area of Talara. We had a pretty good day there and I was able to pass by some people that I taught there and also say bye to my convert and some other members. 

I also was able to go to Zorritos today for pday and say bye to the people there. It was sad to say bye but I know that I will at least be able to have communication with them after the mission. 

We had a meeting with Elder Gong, Elder Godoy, and Elder Falabella this week which was so awesome. The Spirit was really strong there and they have such strong testimonies. It was nice to get to meet each of them and learn from them. 

Love y'all and see y'all soon!

Gave my final testimony

We had a decent week here in our area. We are seeing a little progress here and finding more people little by little.

We had our multizona this past week and we had some cool experiences. We slept the night in Piura and I was able to pass by and surprise some of my converts for a few minutes. They were all doing well and are still progressing in the Gospel. In the multizona something really cool happened as well. Yaris, one of my converts from Piura Central was invited to share her testimony and the experience of her conversion. It was awesome to see her and see that she’s still doing great. I also had to give my final testimony which was kind of weird but now it’s starting to kick in a little bit that I’ll be going home soon.

Other exciting news is that Elder Gong will be here Friday and we will get to meet him and have a little meeting with him and the whole mission. 

Love y'all!

We are starting to see some progress in our area

This past week was really good. We are starting to see some progress in our area and the zone is starting to improve. We were busy doing work exchanges throughout the week and we were able to see miracles in our own area and in the other areas. It doesn’t look like we will baptize this transfer but this area will have at least 1 next transfer. Things are going well though and we found some good people this week. We found a mom and her daughter who used to go to church and were closed to getting baptized but the mom wasn’t married. However, he doesn't live there any more and is separated from her so we will try to work with them and help them.

This week will be busy because we have interviews and we’re traveling to Piura for our multizona.

Love y'all!

Still adjusting and getting to know our area

We had an alright week here. We are still adjusting and getting to know our area but we are starting to feel comfortable. We are starting to find people little by little and a few of them have potential to progress. We’re just going to continue to work hard and hope to have some miracles in these last few weeks. Not too much has been going on but we're preparing for the multizone coming up and also for when Elder Gong will come. 

Have a great week and I love y'all!
