Hello family!
This week was a pretty good week. A bit difficult, but still
really good. We are starting a new program here in our mission, which includes
saying prayers in peoples' houses to help them with whatever difficulty they
are having. But to start it off really, we did a fast. And before the fast, we
took a whole day off of work to clean our house intensely. And even after a
whole day of cleaning, we didn't have enough time to clean everything. It was
rather tiring. On Thursday we had interviews with President Prieto, so that was
good. Then later that day we had a training with the assistants. We spent a lot
of time that day not working, so we basically lost two days of work last week.
But we still managed to work a lot!
So after the fast that we did, we said a prayer that
basically was one of the most spiritual moments of my life. Elder Stewart and I
both had things in mind that we had written down that we were praying and
fasting for, and we switched lists, and prayed for these things for one
another. I won't tell you guys what I asked for, but I'll just let you know
that I got the biggest spiritual confirmation of my life after Elder Stewart
said one of the things that I asked. I know with certainty that that thing will
happen. I'll let you guys know what it was later, after it happens ;)
Also, our ward got a second counselor yesterday! The ward
had been without one for about 6 months since they got a new bishop, but a less
active that my companion helped reactivate was called as the second counselor!
It was great to see him receive that calling. He's definitely someone that will
help this ward a lot.
One last thing - we just got an email from the mission
secretaries saying that this transfer (which was supposed to end after this
week) will be extended another week. We'll have a 7 week transfer! One more
week with Elder Stewart! Woooo!!!
Well, I love you all and hope you all have a fantastic week!
