Week #67

Dear Family!

Well once again here I am! Everything sounds super good! I was super happy to see that Kody got second place in the pinewood derby! That is super sweet! So please tell him congrats for me! Also to see his birthday was super sweet, I cant believe that guy is nine years old! Everything sounds super sweet with school and with work so I am super happy! I hope that the Family Home Evening is going good and strong with the goals that we have talked about! I pray for them everyday! 

That was a good little poem about faith! I did give a talk 2 weeks ago about faith, so the next time I might have to use this poem! But it is super important so that we can receive and participate in the grace that Jesus Christ has given us!

I am struggling trying to think where to start in this email...well maybe from the beginning of the week! So everything went super good for the B Family and Sister N! They just need to get married which they didn't have enough money after the divorce of her husband R so unfortunately we didn't see a baptism this week but they are super excited and geared up to get all of this done! On Wednesday I did a division with Elder H which was really good! I got to help him a little bit in his training and he took my advice really well and is doing super good! He is 24 years old so I am glad he doesn't have pride in his age! So we were in his Area and I was able to help him because he got lost! Haha I have been here too long! But they have two investigators that are going to be baptized in March! So I was able to meet them and it was super sweet! Next on Friday was Elder S's birthday! He turned 23 and I was so tempted to go to his house and throw flour and water on him while he was sleeping BUT I was struck with compassion and decided to arrange a mini surprise party for him. So on Fridays he normally has a bible study class and I told everyone to go and to bring something to eat or drink and we would surprise him after his class! He had no idea! He was asking me why so many people were coming to his class! Haha so it was a great little surprise and we made him a cake so I think it had more affect than wet flour at 5 in the morning! haha This week would also finish the training of Elder S! He was super excited and super ready so I was super blessed to have a obedient companion and he has learned a lot as well as I! 

I think I have found what we lack in San Pedro! We have been extending assignments to members and trusting them more! They are such young members so we are always hesitant to give them a something big to do! But we were stopping their spiritual progress! So instead of having just gospel principles we divided into Priesthood, Relief Society, and Primary! Still teaching the Gospel Principles in the adult classes but now there are more people with assignments! 

Well the news for the changes...which is still super weird to me! Yesterday at 10:15 I get a phone call from the assistants and it was President McM which I recognized his voice right away! He asked me how I was and all that good stuff, and then told me he was finalizing all the changes and he asked me if I could work in the mission office...well of course I said yes haha! But the irony of this was I have been telling my companion Elder S since he got here that he would be an office elder because he worked for the church in Peru! So the karma caught up and now on Tuesday I will be heading down to Asuncion so begin my training to become the new Fichero which is the guy in charge of all the housing in the mission. So despite the rumors of being an office Elder I will do the best I can and complete what the Lord wants! So my new PDay will be on Saturday so I will be writing more super soon! But thank you for writing and all the love and support! I will see you on Saturday!

Love Always,
Elder Milton
