I'm Sick of Taxis!

Hey everyone, I hope your weeks all went well! This week we had a lot of traveling, so I'm pretty tired of busses, and taxis. But life goes on, and all the travels turned out to be worth it! 

 

 

Monday we went to Xalapa, so that was incredible! I got to eat my one hamburger for the transfer, so I'm content. Tuesday we had our Leadership council, and that is always a good time. It's always a blast seeing all my friends, and listening to the President's revelation. But it was 12 hours of travel in 2 days, so I was happy to be home. 

 

 

Wednesday we had our Zone Council. I felt like it went pretty well. We really have to work hard as a zone again this transfer, because pretty much all the missionaries got white washed. I also convinced everyone to shave their heads, so that will be fun. 

 

 

Thursday we went up to Espinal to teach the family of 5, but sadly they weren't there. So we went back on Friday when only the mom and the kids were home. We had really good lessons, and invited them to baptism. The Mom pretty much said yes, but I want to wait till the Dad gets home, so we will be visiting them again next week. Also on Friday we had a lesson with Elena, our miracle from Zozoculco. We also taught a really good lesson with her, and her 10 year old daughter who we just found out exists! So we put a date on her daughter as well! That family is just so ready for the Gospel! 

 

 

Sunday was pretty relaxed as well. We went to teach a reference that we received, and she is awesome! We had a super amazing lesson, she pretty much already knew everything. We also taught her sister who was just as interested! It was sweet! 

 

 

That was about it. Nothing really exciting happened. I really have built a strong testimony about how Jesus cares about the one. I have traveled about 2 hours a day just to teach one person, and it's a cool thought. Although It's exhausting, I'm grateful the Lord is using me as his instrument. He really loves all of his children, and I testify to that. I love you all, and hope you have great weeks!
