This week was a good one. It was my last week with Elder Alamea. We worked hard to find some new people to teach before the next cycle. This week I was kind of frustrated because we have a lot of investigators but they are progressing super slow. They always tell us that they are going to go to church but they don't go. This week Elder Alamea and I were determined to find some more new people to teach. We contacted and contacted and we tried working through the members but there was just no one that was willing to listen. I had another experience this week that honestly makes me so happy and just strengthens my testimony and helps me realize how great our Señor really is. Elder Alamea and I were walking to a cita and all of a sudden we heard un Señor start yelling Elders. We turned around and he begin to say that he has a son that went on the mission and that he left here and then came back and went with someone to the US. He has been there forever and he wanted to know if there was a way that we could get in contact with his son. He told us that he wasn't miembro but his son had told him a lot about the iglesia and that he wanted to be baptized but he hadn't seen the missionaries around in forever. Honestly this was an answer to my prayers and I know the Lord put him in our camino because he wants us to have success in this life. The Lord is so great and wants the best for all of us but it just depends on our diligencia. I think that might be one of the biggest things I have learned here in the mission. When one person is diligent and puts himself metas he can accomplish a lot of things. I am so grateful for choosing to serve a mission and I love seeing the Lord`s hand in others lives. This not only changes their life but it also changes my life.
Well more changes came jajaja. I received a new compañero here in the Rama Juarez. Elder Alamea had changes and I am now with Elder Callirgos from Lima, Peru. He has 6 months in the mission and I am excited to work with him. I am actually really excited to see what the Lord has prepared for us here in the Rama Jaurez este cicliio. We have quite a few fechas and we are hoping to see them progress this cycle and they can take the right path and see the change in their lives. I love this work and my Savior. I am reading the Book of Mormon again and I cannot get enough out of it. Everytime that I read it I learn more and I love seeing the examples of missionaries that there are. It would be so awesome to get to that point and to see so many people converted at once. The obra misional is so awesome and I know these are the last days and the Lord is establishing his kingdom here on Earth with our help. Be diligent and always ask the Lord for help! Happy 2019!!!!! Almost jajaja and I hope everyone has a great Año Nuevo. Oh ya hope everyone had a great Christmas because I did seeing my family!!! Everyone is changing it is so crazy and time is flying by really fast!
