I have some good news to report! Number One I am feeling a lot lot better! Number Two I have recieved the package! So please enjoy these picks that I have attatched with some of the events that you guys have missed!
Congradulations to Megan for being accepted into Girls state and also for the FBLA state officer interview! Although she will not be running for office she still passed the interview which is a huge accomplishment regardless! Also I am so excited for Kodys baptism this week! He is such a stallion! Im glad to hear that there will be family to see it too! Speaking of baptism I have a strange request...if you could please send me a picture of my baptism! The best one there is! I feel that I will be able to show some people and show them how special it is! Thank you in advance!
I am so jealous of your trip next week! I have always wanted to go and see the sights of Washington D.C. and the surrounding areas! So please Enjoy and take lots of pictures!
This week was a hard working week! Which is exactly what I needed! After being sick I was a little bit lazy and I needed to be whipped back into shape! As you know this weekend was Stake conferece. So Elder S. and I really focussed on our less actives and inactives. This week we visited all our area and taught all the less actives we know! This was really good because I still need to learn the layout of our area. Some places we visit more and I am a little more familiar with but there are some that I dont have any clue!
So with the disobedient Elder, the president has decided that Elder O. and his companion live in a house next door to our zone leaders. The idea behind this, is that they will be able to do divisions and splits more easily. They are really working hard with this disobedient Elder. Well the president also suggested that Elder O. and his companion do a divison with Elder S. and I. Elder S. volunteered for the division with the disobedient Elder, so I had the honor of working with Elder O! I love this guy! He has become one of my closest friends here and is a huge example to me! So Wednesday we tackled our area and had a great time at the same time! He is really progressing with his English and I couldnt be more proud of them! Also he was extremely grateful to have a day of work! So he kept thanking me and hugging me haha. Then on Friday we had a service project which consisted of digging a well! The problem is that there was only one shovel and Elder S. was not feeling too good so I willing took upon myself this job! I love service! Elder S. calls me an adicto which is addict in spanish. He says if service was a drug I would be addicted to it! So I found it a pretty nice compliment!
Saturday was the first part of the stake conference! Our ward paid for a bus to pick up the members for the adult session and also for thesunday session. Our Stake center is in a city called Luque which is about an hour away so this was really needed! Well Elder S. and I didnt attend the first part of the conference saturday because we learned that Cat. was going to be working past the pick up time for the bus. So we both decided that it would be better to teach her instead of going to the conference! Which it turned out very much worth it. She informed us of a problem that she has been having, this problem will most likely postpone her baptism again! Which is sad, but she really wants to be baptized so we just have to be patient!
Sunday was amazing! The Bus was full of members for the stake conference! It really made me so happy to see everyone talking and just a huge family on this bus! Also a few families that we had taught this week came so it was really good to see them! When we arrived to the stake center we were a little late. Which we werent the only ones but this place was FULL. The entire cultural hall was full, the stage was full, and we had to big classrooms with TVs that were full also! So instead of paying attention to the conference Elder S. and I helped people find chairs and places to sit for pretty much the whole conference! It was for the members anyway so I was not too bummed about not listening, I was just so happy to see such a turn out! almost 1000 people came! It was awesome!
Well I hope you all had a good week! Thank you for your prayers for my health and for my struggle with the language! They are truly helping and I am so grateful for them! I love you all and I will be writing more next week :)
Love,
Elder Milton
