So this week was super loco!
Tuesday was transfers and as always it's a mess because
everybody has more stuff than we can fit in the cars. So it was crazy. I got to
Caguas at like 2pm and we went right out with Elder Noble who finished his
mission. A recent convert took us out to get like milkshake things and then we
went and talked to a few other people so that he could say goodbye to his
investigators before he went home to the DR. I was super lost because Caguas is
huge and Elder Paniagua (my comp) walks extremely fast and I have a hard time
keeping up with him. Maybe I was just really accustomed to Elder Suero, hahaha.
The rest of the week was spent pretty normally, went around
to all of the investigators so that I could get to know them and all that. The
recent convert that took us out to milkshakes is super cool and has one of the
strongest testimonies I've ever heard from a convert. It's really amazing.
Okay but the most interesting part of my week was Friday, I
had an exchange with a Zone Leader because I'm a new District Leader and they
have to train me and all that good stuff. So I went to Aguas Buenas, which let
me tell ya is all hills and a lot of agua. I was not prepared for that day. We
got up and did some P90X workout video which wore me out (remember this is at
6:30am) and then we went out to work and ended up walking up and down hills all
day. ALL DAY in the rain. It was one of the most mentally stressful things I've
ever done.
But the next day was the worst. My body was super sore and
we went out to work and I just couldn't take it. And since Paniagua walks super
fast that didn't help at all. But we worked and ended up walking a ton because
nobody was home. This day also kinda stunk.
That's really the week right there. I'm pretty stressed out
because the district has a bunch of small problems that we have to work out, we
need to be better about finding new investigators and setting baptismal dates
and having lessons with members. All things that will come, we just have to
find the way to work through it.
But Caguas is super cool and the ward is really awesome.
There a ton of members here and they love to help us. And Caguas baptizes a ton
so hopefully we can baptize in the ward like every week. It's definitely
possible here!
Love you all! I know this is the work of the Lord and that He
is helping us in every step.
