MERRRRRY CHRISTMAS!

Dear Family, This week was another great week. Not just for us, but for the whole zone. This past Saturday, we baptized 18 souls in the zone. Right now, as a zone, we have baptized 27 this month, and we still have two weeks left in the month of December. This zone has never baptized over 30, in the mission's history, in one month. And it's only the 18th of December and the Lord has given us 27 baptisms! I would love to send a photo of our baptisms this last week, but my companion doesn’t have his cord. This upcoming week, we have about five more people in our area that can get baptized. In our zone, we have a ton of possibilities for the end of this week. My comp and I just got home from our little trip out to Trujillo. A family got baptized this past weekend, but the Dad didn’t want his children to get baptized. So my comp and I, after church here in our Branch, took a bus ride with two other Elders to Trujillo, and went and animated this guy. We told him the blessings kids c...

HOLA FAM

Dear Fam, It sounds like it has been a crazy little week for y'all up there. Great to hear another little girl goonie has been born into the world.  Congrats  Goonie on being a Dad. Hope you enjoy the diaper changing, and all the fun surprises that come in the diaper, and with being a Dad...like getting up at night! Thanks for the pictures. They were great. Well this week has been a pretty cool one. The Zone is rollin' along. We have over 30 possibilities to get baptized this upcoming week, on Saturday. This Zone has never baptized over 30 souls in one month. So the Lord is really working miracles here, and blessing us tremendously. I love being the Zone Leader here. The Elders are so awesome. We are a really young Zone, but we are just trying to humble ourselves, sacrifice ourselves, and let the lord bless us. I love going all over the Zone, to areas in the Zone, helping the Elders out, and meeting their investigators. This past week, I went out to Coyales (the famous banan...

FAMILY

Dear Family, This week has been a really great week. Monday, I went and worked in another area called Coyales with another Elder from our Zone. Then on Tuesday, I went to their District Meeting, which was way out, then I came back into Tocoa, got some stuff from my house, and I went on another division with Elder Panalba in Agaun. We went and visited some families they are having troubles with. Everything went awesome though. One of the families are going to get married now, this Friday, and baptized on Saturday afternoon. Anyways, then on Wednesday, we went to a Zone Leader Conference in San Pedro. We had to wake up at 1:30 in the morning to catch a bus to make it there by 8:30. It was an awesome little conference. We were there till about 2:00 in the afternoon. Then, after the conference, the AP came back, all the way to Colon with me, to do a four-day division. It was pretty sweet. My companion stayed with the other AP in San Pedro till Saturday.  On  Saturday in the after...
