This week has gone by pretty fast but kind of slow here too!! It's been good and everything, but also been pretty dang hard! Well, as you know, I just got called to be the district leader here in the Galapagos! Which is kind of fun! I have to talk to a lot of people and have to give talks and encourage them! Which means my Spanish needs to be like perfect... ha ha so it's been a little hard but that's okay! I gave my first one this Saturday to the zone. I hope it went well! I talked about the church and we did a little bonding activity which didn't go too well, but everybody was laughing! I felt the spirit while I was teaching so I hope they did too! I've felt your prayers!
I got a new companion he is from Argentina which is nice that I can keep working and getting better at my Spanish but this guy is super super new! I have to be learning a lot of patience and everything! He looks like Kyson Kidd, but he doesn't act like it! It's just been hard!!
This week has been good, we have 2 new people and baptism dates that we are working with! It was SUPER COOL!! We broke the record here in the Galapagos! I brought over 8 people, investigators to church! I was like ohh yeah!!!! It was the most in all the zone! I was proud, but it was all the Lord!!
This week we had the chance to bless 2 people by the power of the priesthood! I love using that great power that the Lord gives to his worthy men! We also gave a lesson to a person who speaks English! She was ateo! (Atheist) Which was way hard!! I am not used to people being ateo!!
Today we went to the HIGHEST point in the Galapagos!! It was awesome!! All of our shoes got super muddy! It was super fun!! I loved it! The other missionaries didn't, but I had a great time!! We've been waking up at 5:45 to go running everyday too!! ha ha so that's just great! haha I am just really tired! I am sorry, I'm just trying to do everything, and it's hard! But the lord is helping me through it all! Thanks for all your prayers! The Galapagos Islands are soo beautiful, like really I am always soo grateful for the chance to serve here in this beautiful country!! aver... I don't remember what I was going to tell you guys! I had a good week it's just been really hard! I Love you guys, and I thank you all for your support for me! I love you guys soo much!!
