Sending another companion home...again!

Hey!
So last week of the change!  They moved the changes to this Wednesday so I have no idea what to expect. My companion is going home so hopefully they will send me my new comp before so that I don’t have to waste a couple days just tagging along with the zone leaders.

Besides that the work here is doing pretty good. Still kind of recovering from the change and taking 2 missionaries out and putting new ones in. It’s pretty tough but we are working on fixing that.

This week we finally got to meet with an investigator that the other elders had here and we brought her to an open house we had at the church. It was good and like 20 or so members showed up. It was really good for her because they taught a lot of things to her.. I hope it wasn’t too much because she was the only nonmember there. I don’t think the ward here completely understands that when they invite people it is about a thousand times more effective than us inviting. When they invite it’s a lot more personal. We invited like 10 or more people there but only our investigator Dayana came. She’s the sister of Lady. Who I’ve talked about in my last emails. She’s 20 and has a kid that’s 5. Not married. It’s pretty tough but she has a lot of support from her family. Her parents are really protective of her and so that’s why it’s so hard to talk to her sometimes because her dad doesn’t really like us and they’re pretty catholic. She’s really interested so it’s pretty important that we catch her attention and get her a desire to learn more while we have this chance.

This week we had a little get together with one of the members from Amiltzingo.  It was really cool. The members are super cool, they are almost all converts to the church so they all have these super strong testimonies like as if they were born in the church with the amazing testimony of missionary work so they treat us super good. I kinda feel bad for how much they actually do for us but it’s nice and makes me love being a missionary.

Well that’s about all that I have for this week. I’ll let you guys know what happens next week!!!!!!!!

I love you all!
