Where the Wild Things Are (Midland, TX)

Goood morning folks how are we all doing?

I hope we've all been able to have a good start of this new year. This week here in Texas has been kind of up and down not unlike that of a roller coaster.


The start of the week on Monday evening wasn't anything special, we called folks and had a lesson with the one fam we usually do on Mondays nothing really new there. The next day was new years eve and we had to be home a little early that day but in the afternoon we gave a blessing to someone who's about to start a mission and later we had a few lessons which were good.


The next year we had a day busy with meetings and stuff, we had one lesson with our friend who had a baptism date for that week right before his interview, and that evening we had a correlation meeting with our ward mission leader. On Thursday we had a lesson with some of the guys we taught on Tuesday and their friend they're pretty cool they've come to church a couple of times now and are exited to learn we taught them about the whole Joe Smith thing and they were excited about it. They came to church on Sunday. 


On Friday our day was full of planing and service as usual, but those guys we taught just mentioned came and played volleyball with us along with 3 more people. 3 of them were brothers of Fernando who's the main dude but we'll try and start teaching all of them. Saturday was busy we called everyone and stopped by most of them to invite everyone to church, it was a busy day but went pretty well. Then on Saturday evening we had a long lesson with someone in his house I thought I was about to die in. But we made it out and then he came to church the next day so it worked out.


The last day was Sunday, we had a decent amount of people there including some who were mentioned earlier, and one of them we called after and he said he really enjoyed it and said he found the church he would go to for the rest of his life. The rest of the day was pretty normal we had a few lessons. 


So yeah wild things unfortunately the baptism of our friend Christian needed to be rescheduled for another date in the future to be decided but it ended up being good. Sorry this email went a little long I'll let us all get back to our Monday. 


See you

The Wild East

 Goood morning how are all of us today? Here we are again another week to write another letter. This week was somewhat eventful so here's a brief explanation for some of the events.  On Monday evening some other missionaries came into town to a mini exchange here in Hobbs but we were both working in our area. We knocked doors the whole evening and met some interesting people. Tuesday was pretty normal, we had district council then did our singing service then later in the day we went and did English class. After that we visited some members who are pretty cool then we had a lesson with someone who we just started teaching again.

It is well

Goood morning gentlemen and ladies. I suppose a letter is due seeing that this is in fact my last week in the mission field. It's been pretty awesome being out here and definitely the best decision I ever made up until now—is serving a mission. I don't really got too many profound spiritual things to say here so might as well give a little recap.  It's been really great being here in Hobbs and all the other areas meeting all the people specifically the Spanish ones. This last week we met with lots of cool people and taught them. On Monday we met with our friend Mario who's on baptismal date and he's doing well. We talked about the plan of salvation and he said an epic prayer at the end. We also met with 2 other people were teaching who are doing really well and we talked with them about baptism. Tuesday was also good we had a lesson in the afternoon and then English class and some other lessons and stuff On Wednesday we had an exchange with the other elders here in ...
