Well its not Monday... but here´s the news just the same! :)
Well well pretty nuts week!!! First off last Monday night my
comp. packed up all his stuff and then Tuesday we went around to say good bye
and stuff then about 4 we got on a bus to Coban! we passed by Santa Cruz and I
got off there and we switched with one of the elders from Santa Cruz that was
also going to the cap for changes, so those two left in the bus and I stayed in
Santa Cruz with an elder from Idaho elder Suiter! He’s cool and we are pretty
good buds cuz they are part of our same branch!
Anyway so I stayed with him in Santa
Cruz Tuesday night and we worked hard! Then we worked all day Wednesday in his
area again! It’s cool to change and work with different people gives you new perspective
and new ideas! Anyway then we slept there Wed night too, and Thursday morning
we went to pick up our new comps from Coban! My new comps name is Elder
Lomeu!!!! He is from Sáu Paulo Brazil! Crazy!!! But he is awesome! He has like
4 months in the mission, he was in the MTC in Brazil for 6 weeks learning Spanish,
and then he had to wait in a mission there in Brazil for a few weeks till he
got his papers to come here, then he was in the cap! So ya he is awesome! Has a
big heart and super nice, But he is cool so! Anyway so ya he came Thursday and
we have been working sense then...
As far as our investigators come! Well we are working hard
but we obviously need to work harder, this Sunday we again had 0 inv. at
church! so sad!!! But it’s not like we didn´t try!! We had like 10 that
said they were gonna come! and we passed by for a ton of them in the morning! 4
were like oh ya we just need to get ready and will be there at 9!, then others
we went by were like oh ya sorry I can´t, and then like other were like ya
sorry my husband just left and so maybe will come later! ugh!!! So frustrating!!!
I decided we need to work on finding more investigators, hahaha but no we are
gonna look for more, and keep working hard with the ones we have too, as far as
baptism dates... we don’t have any!!! haha like I said we have 6 people that we
have plans with to put dates in this week!! But we are also trying hard to get
them to church!! cuz really they need to come to church before they can get
baptized! :/ but ya! haha working HARDDDD... I’m so tired all the time!!! I
think the biggest temptation in a rule to break, is not like watch tv, or
listen to music or swim, the biggest temptation I have is to just go home and
take a nap!!!! hahaha I’m not gonna lie there has been times that I have prayed
that me or my comp will get sick so we can have a day in the house to rest!!!
haha but ya the lord is helping me keep going!
About the mission split, well ya I’m officially in mission Coban!
but idk when the name will change or when the new prez will come... but there
is some word that prez Watts is gonna came around and give us one last good
bye, and I’m sure we are gonna have a big meeting with the whole mission and
our new president, but as far as when... no idea!!!
Elder Vestal I did not ever get to see haha, he called one
time and we talked for a little, but just that one time... but I heard he was
awesome! He was born (first area) in San Cristobal just like me! Anyway, oh
also found out that the other 3 guys from my MTC district, including Elder Brindle
are in mission Este!!! :( I’m out here all alone!
haha but that’s ok! Anyway I’m excited for all the changes
and to keep working hard!!!
Love you guys!!! Hope all is well and you’re not doing
anything too crazy fun without me!!! hahah
I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
Elder Kumpf!
