Missionary Moment - Puerto Rico San Juan & Dominican Republic Santo Domingo West

Good Morning all! Cómo tu eta wey klk mis locos! (Thought you'd enjoy some Dominican, no cap that's how they speak around here! I'm gonna have such a Dominican accent when I get home! 

 

I don't want to start off my saying this week was a bit uneventful but It was a little uneventful...this week was full of odd twists and turns, keeping up with the movement made me exhausted to sleep at night! Unfortunately it's so hot on the island now that sleeping comes at a cost of being soaked in your own sweat! Sometimes if your not careful it might be the sweat of your comp! No I'm just kidding haha 

 

This week we had Zone Conference! 

 

Pretty cool 

 

They talked much about kindness, Christlike Kindness that we all need to prevail as disciples of Jesus Christ. Something I for sure needed and me and my companion aren't too close..thanks President 

We also had the privilege of moving out one of our members! It's pretty sad actually, basically she was married to the branch president but he kinda just dipped so we were without a president for about 3 months (yes, I have been in this area without a branch president for the entire time until just yesterday actually) but yeah because he left she couldn't afford everything on her own which forced her and her two daughters to move out. So we got that all taken care of on Saturday and blessed her new home yesterday. Pretty cool member! 

 Our new branch president is a 21 year old return missionary whose father is his secretary and no counselors! Much better than what he had which was nothing.. 

 We're also finally ordaining members who haven't received priesthood since baptism get that now, I love participating in those ordinances! Needless to say our small little branch is on a very slow upward  climb to greatness! 

 This coming week is much one that I've had before because Marcalles baptism next Saturday and all it takes is a little chocolate in his face to keep out those cigarettes and tons of prayers!! Please pray for my boy! All he wants is to be baptized! 

Stay cool! 

 Miss and Love you all tons!!
