It was really sad leaving Cucuta because I feel like I left family again! They really are a family for me. They made me give a farwell talk and everthing how cruel. But luckily I was able to fight away the tears. Later after church we went to visit Kevin and Ivan and their family. We had lunch with them and were able to spend some time togther before I left. They even took us to Terminal to drop me off. And on the ride to the bus station, they all said their last words of goodbye! It was really sad. And then saying goodbye was the hardest thing I have ever done! Kevin and Ivan were both crying, it was super sad! Im going to miss that family so much!!! </span><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> Anyways well my companion or old companion Elder Hildebrandt is trainning!!

background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Wow that sounds like a pretty crazy week! But that is good that you found time to enjoy it! Im glad that everyone is having fun with football and soccer! que pasó kayman porque no quieres ir a colegio? Pero esta semana va ser mejor para ti, verdad? </span><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Well anyways this week went by super fast I feel like the days just get shorter and feel like there in never enough time to do all the things on our list. And sometimes it can be a little stressful, but Ive been trying to control my stress, and let it build me instead of impact me in a negative way. But our area is huge and we are only 2 missionaries in the ward so that isnt the greatest with so much ground to cover, but hopefully they will send more missionaries soon! Well I dont have a whole lot of time because we are having a super Pday with Pres. Laney so this is why Im writing right now in the morning. Anyways this week went by super well! We had a lot of good lessons! I think the best lesson we had is when we went to visit Kevin and his step dad Carlos. We talked with and shared a message and Carlos told us how he wants to support kevin and the decesion he made to be baptized. And he wants to come to church and wants to go to a baptism to see how it is! So that was legit! Hopefully they will get baptized this up coming week! </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> Also we had an open house in one of the churches it was usper cool we just contacted a ton and brought a ton of people to come and get to know the church it was a huge sucess! And it was great just loosing all fear and talking with everyone there! We have been finding some new invetigators so we will see how that goes this up coming week. But other than that it was a pretty great week.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Well I hope you have another great week !

Then we had a lesson with a less active family that we are trying to rescue they are super awesome. We talked about doing the samll things so that God can do bigger things in our lives!</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Also they gave ys a ton of coca cola so that was legit!</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Mericoles: We went to San Martin where we climbed the hill to visit another less active family. It was good but I don't know for some reason this ward has a lot of feelings against each other or in other words there are many problems between the members! Which makes it really hard to work with. But my companion and I are trying our best and making the most with what we got. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Jueves: We had lunch with a lday who has a son in the mission. She is really catholic but she was excited to meet us and has a lot of questions for us. So we are going to see if we can help her. Then we had a lesson with an investigator who doesnt want to fullfil the things we tell him it is always have you read the book of Mormon and the answer is always no :( So we had a heart to heart lesson with him and told him that it is the only way to find out is for himself. Sometimes it is just to easy that people take it for granted. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">we also got a water filter, so no we dont have to buy giant bags of water. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Viernes: We went and had a lesson with a less active youngman who was baptized not to long ago, but doesn't have a lot of support from his family because he is the only member so it is hard for him, but hopefullly he will come back to church. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Sabado: We had servicio it was cool we had to do alot of work but it was cool and it is always good to do something different. Then in the night we had a lesson with Kevin and his Family. It was good. Also we were able to talk with his step dad , and well he is intersted. So now we have 3 more in the family who are preparing to be baptized , hopefully they can get married and get baptized as soon as possible! </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Domingo: we talked a lot about marriage in church lets just say TRUNKY! jaja no jk. Later we went to San Martin and had a good lesson with the Arenas Family. The mom is member and her kids are less active. So we are working with them because the MOm has the goal to be sealed as a famly which is great.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hoy: the sister missionries made lunch for us from their counries and it was the first time i had cerviche and it was pretty good. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Anyways that was pretty much our week!

We had a few good lessons, but I think what made my day was we were walking to a lesson, and we saw a man sitting down on the sidewalk, And he had a huge smile on his face, and we walked pass him, but then I got a huge feeling to turn back. So I looked back and he was still smiling at us so we turned back to talk with him. He was really receptive to what we had to share with him. We were able to set up another day to visit with him, or well in this case other missionaries because he lives in a different area, but it was super Legit! </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Miercoles: New Companion! Elder Hildebrandt .... Can you guess where he is from? .....no .... you think the last name is american or from a different part, of the world but not a latin name. And well your right. my comp is from germany!!! Haha well his great grandpa, he is actually from Peru. He is a really cool guy. He is really humble, and super funny. Also he knows pretty good english so that is legit!

So that was cool and the spirit was way strong! Then Later the sister missionaries called at the last minute to inform us that they had a baptismal interview. We had to run to the area in a small bus that took up most of our day. But we were able to meet with A_ a reference from a member, so that was good! Now we are starting to find more people to teach! </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Sabado: We had our district meeting, and then afterwards our president had encouraged us to practice english to help the missionries learn so we sang the Hoki Poki to help them learn the parts of the body so that was fun! later we had some good contacts in the street, and then we went to visit K_ and his family , and read the book of mormon with them!</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Domingo: After church we went to San Martin, we had a few good lessons, And we found a new family who are super awesome so we will see how it goes with them! </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hoy: We went to Ventura plaza to go bowling, but the sister missionaries showed up late so we didnt have time, so we had an Ultimate air hockey battle instead, and My comp and I won!!! </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Anyways that was pretty much the adventures of our week.

And the dad isnt a memeber so we will see if we can teach him too! Also this week we were able to do a lot of service for members, less actives , and invetigators which was legit. I love doing service! I which I had a mission where all it was was serving! but teaching is also service which is cool too! yesterday after church Kevin´s mom made us lunch so that was cool! they are really aweome! And we are teaching the whole family now ! We also discovered that thursdays there is a pizza place 2 for 1 deal ! so it is like 7 dollars for 2 big pizzas!!!

One because my companion is sometimes a little slow in the morning so some times he misses his personal study and then takes the time of our companionship study for his personal study. So that drove me a little crazy. And then in the night we had to cancel 2 lessons to go to ward council which didnt take place because no one showed up!! Here they dont take ward concil to seriously, but the bishop is trying so we will see. But I did learn to index while we were waitng for the Bishop so that was cool, because i have never done it before jaja oopps. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Viernes: We had intercambios with the zone leaders which was good.

Anyways intercambios where good, we went and visited a part of their area that is really humble where almost everyone lives in shafts with tin roofs and walls and dirt floors. That was a really humbling experince. And the people there were really receptive so that was cool! </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Sabado: I read a talk about forgiveness, which helped me so much with my companion I talked with him and now we are on the same page which is good, but it is an amazing talk form the last conference!!!

But some of things that I learned this week is that there are people prepared every where to hear our message, if we are only willling to open our mouths to share this beautiful message. Also enduring. This week has definetly been one of the hardest in the mission, with having lessons, because no one really had time, and also no one is really progressing, but at the end of the week we had 2 amazing lessons with 2 less actives, that we havent been able to teach in like a month. It was a huge tender mercy from God! </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> Anyways Sunday was super cool! The talks were really great about the importance of mothers in God´s plan. Later in priesthood there has a brother visting form Utah and he didnt speack spanish at all and didnt really understand it either, so I had the privledge of translating for him, that was cool, Because it was the first time I've done it in the mission! Anyways in the class we talked about living by the spirit and not by the law. But the only way can do that is if at first we are completing with law. It was super inspiring for me, and really powerful!</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> Also we had tranfers this week..... pause for dramatic effect.......
