Seis Semanas más en la Santa!

It was a good week that passed by as normal not much i can complain about. It was the last week in the change so kindof of a intiapating or nerve racking week. But ill go ahead and just break the news that i do not have changes or my companion. Its pretty interesting truthfully the first time in my almost 20 months in the mission that me or my comp dont have changes. We can now say that the curse has been broken if you take my time out of the office ive never had a companion more then one change or a been in a area more then two changes so now its broken. Its going to be a little wierd but im going to enjoy it this is a great area and me and elder Judd get along very well so its all good. Then next change ill probably be out and to my last area for my last two changes.

Anyways back to this week and all that happen kindof of a full week. So on Tuesday we had consejo with all the lideres it was pretty good. Just alot of learning and everything. Then wensday was the next good full day. We had interviews with president Bowler it was good getting to talk about the zone and my mission and everything i enjoyed it. So that day was filled with that interviews classes and all that good stuff.

Then on thursday we judt follwed with the plan that we have set for the stake and trying to get the family home evenings set up and everything in the ward and with the investagators. Its been going pretty well for us and everything. Me and my companion found this awesome family about 2 or 3 weeks ago contacting and theres 5 of them 4 that listen and we have now gotten 2 of them to come to church and everything. Anyways we did a family home evening with them on Saturday and we watched meet the mormans it was really good we had alot of people there and it anwsered alot of there questions and everything i believe. This family is real cool on sunday before church they even invite us over now to eat pancakes and eveything its really cool they will be great members if everything continues to go well.

The we have this part of our area that is just a mountain kindof and it cool because theres alot of people that live there and all. So we decided to set a few hours to go up there and do some contacting to try to find some new people and everything. This part of the area is kind of isolated for being so high up the mountain. They have no water system so every 3 days they have to hall water up the mountain. We went over there and much have contacted for like 3 or 4 hours and just everyone rejected us. We talked to so many people but no one wanted anything. In the end we were glad to have given it a try but i dont belive there is anyone waiting for the gospel in that area at least for right now no.

Other then that everything is just gliding along. They changed one of our area in our zone into elder so were going to have some new elders in the zone and all of our zone is training which is pretty cool every area eaither starting training or ending there training this change its real cool. The yeah 6 more weeks here in the Santa Maria zone valle de angeles. Ill take it a real good place to stay for my 3rd to last change but whos counting right mom:)

Preaching the Gospel to all that are willing to listen!
