One week to Remember

Well this week was one of the hardest weeks of the mission for sure for many reasons! So this week we had new missionaries get here on tuesday which is always super fun but its a little bit of work for us here in the office! And that is fine, i love that! What made is dificult is that on thursday we had a whole mission conference with all 182 of us missionaries! So tuesday and wednesday we were super busy with the news and setting up for this huge conferance with Elder Christensen from the Presidency of the Seventy! Now if that wasn't a stressful day I don't know what is a stressful day hahaha! Being in the office, we were in charge of setting up everything for this conferance, keeping 182 missionaries in control and reverant, and on top of that I had to reimburse around 50 missionaries of exspenses that they had this month! So ya lets just say it was a long day! We woke up early around 630 and didn't get done until around 9:30 at nights lol! And on top of all that this week, me and Vaz still had to pay a bunch of rents to angry owners when ever we had a few seconds to spare lol! FUN TIMES

So ya the week was long! But finally after 2 long weeks of working super hard here in the office and on our house and basically not working at all in our area... we finally made it back to the lovely neighborhood of Sol Naciente :) I missed the work so much! Something I learned this week was definitly the joy one gets from actually spreading the gospel to everyone they care about! This gospel really is a blessing! Sometimes we get a little lazy and don't want to go out and spread the gospel but it really is the one thing that brings the most joy to me in this world!! 

To end the week we had a super dope stake conferance  with Elder Levrino from the Seventy! He talked on how every single one of us members of the church are "full time missionaries" we have the blessing of having this gospel and we need to share it! It was an amazing talk! The stake I am currently in has had a lot of trouble with this lately and he really knew how to help and say it in a loving manner! 

So sorry this email is a little long and not funny at all.... but the next one will be better! I love you all and hope you have a wonderful week!

Oh quick semi funny story from this week- So we are currently are living in the mission home right next to the room of President Correa! And this week he looked up a 3 minute video ( in english ) just to say that we need to make our beds better! Jajaja then he went up to our rooms and taught us all how to make our beds hahaha! That was a pretty funny moment :)

 Mission Conference....First time President Correra had the entire mission in one place.  And boy was it a lot of work!






Playing Monopoly as we wait for the new missionaries to finish immigration.  Appropriate for a financial elder!
