Hey Guys,
So this week was a great one! We worked hard and did what we could this week to be successful missionaries. A lot of people were gone this week because it is the week of the new year. So here on the 31st and 1st a ton of people go to the beach to swim. Like almost everyone. S quite honestly we didn't have quite as much to do this week because lots of people were gone. But we did have the opportunity to visit a good amount of people this week. Right now we are working a lot with the family of one of my recent converts, Jennifer. Her Mom goes to a different church but we are teaching her Mom and her siblings. They are super cool. They aren't super interested but we are doing what we can. Maybe with time they will soften their hearts.
I spent the 31st(the last part of the day before we had to go back to the house) with some of my investigators. The Hechaveria family. They are such loving people. They have a ton of love and respect for the missionaries and that is something that I really appreciate. They fed us panes con pollo which is basically bread with chicken and other vegetables in it. Its REALLY GOOD! I ate 2 with them and they gave me a couple to take home and I ate those the next morning. So it was a really fun time. They are also our most positive investigators right now, but its hard to get them to come to church they always say that they cant come because they have some other thing to do but were working with them and doing the best we can.
So this week was a lot different because it was a holiday week and a lot of people were gone. But we did our best to go out and find and teach these people. It was also kind of a hard week because my companion and I were both missing home a little around this time of the new year. But this week will be better, I know it!
Also some big news is that this week their are CHANGES! So I don't know if I will have changes or not but I will find out tomorrow. I am thinking that I will because I have been here for 4 changes but we wont know till tomorrow night and you guys wont know till next Monday but I will be sure to let you all know.
Also would like to talk a little bit about setting goals. Goals are important and all of us should make it a priority to set 2 or 3 goals this year and to achieve these goals. When we set goals we are setting a measurable personal standard for us to meet and when we meet this standard we improve. This month or January is a great opportunity to set these goals that you can work on for this year of 2016.
Anyways, I love you guys. I am sorry I don't have a ton to talk about, I promise to have more next week just not as many people were around this week because of the Holidays. I hope you all have a wonderful week and I love you all so very much!
