What's good everyone!! Crazy week, here it goes.  So as far as the title goes I was in an exchange and a dog came up and bit me on the leg. And it was bleeding. And then the next day another dog came running at me and I gave it a nice right foot to the jaw. Yeah, I hate dogs. Also during this exchange my comp got hit by a car over in my area. Kinda nuts but he's ok.  I also got super bad blisters out of nowhere this week not sure why and I kinda got sick again. And my comp fell super hard and hurt his shoulder. Kinda seems like satan was doing everything he could to take us out haha. Because this week we were able to invite 7 people to be baptized. Sadly they all have some issues so they don't have a date as of yet but that should happen this week.  A few weeks ago in zone conference the president talked about finding and baptizing whole families. Right around this time we had 0 people progressing and O as kinda freaking out. But these last 2 weeks we've found 3 complet...

Hello everyone! How's it going? I hope you all had a great week this week. I had a really great week. Nothing too crazy or out of the norm, just working like crazy as usual. This week I got to do 2 exchanges which was awesome. I love doing exchanges because I learn so much and I build relationships with other missionaries. We had an exchange with a companionship called Yvy ja'u which means we eat dirt in guarani. I stayed here in pjc but Saturday morning I had to leave at like 4 in the morning to go pick up my companion and then come back. That took like 8 hours in total and I was completely dead the whole day haha. So basically all of our friends that were progressing are now not progressing, and so we had to drop like 15 people at the start of this week. That was kind of discouraging but we kept working and man did the Lord bless us. We contacted a guy in the street and he told us that he had never heard of the missionaries before but his cousin is a member and he had interes...

Hey everyone!!! How's it going?? So this is gonna be short. I couldn't find the time to write today and I'm so sorry. I'm just letting you guys know that I'm still alive haha. I promise I will write a better email next week. A few highlights  - Got pretty sick yesterday  - Jhully got baptized!!! - had another exchange. Which I always love -found a new neighborhood full of people to teach  I love you guys so much. Sorry for the bad emails. See yall next week!!

What's up y'all. Sorry this'll be short again. But this was a pretty crazy week and super busy. We had a lot of meetings and a lot going on but it was really fun. This last Monday we were going to go to Asuncion for a mission leadership conference. We were on the bus when people started throwing stuff at the bus and stopped it in the street in protest of the election. So the bus turned around and went back. So we had to participate by zoom which was a bit sad. And I had to have the interview with the president by zoom too so that was a bummer.  Our friends are progressing well. We have a baptism this Saturday. And the people that had to get a divorce actually don't because their wedding doesn't show in the system which is nuts and a miracle so he'll get baptized.  We're also going to put a date with a family in about an hour so that'll be great.  I don't have more time but I'll see y'all later!!!

What's up everyone!!! Had a great week here in pjc this week. I'm really enjoying my time  here. I like it a lot more than the city. So Imma just go day to day because a lot happened.  Tuesday: We had exchanges with another companionship that's really struggling and were really discouraged. So I went to their area and we just went crazy and talked to literally everyone we saw. Later that night we showed up to a member's house and a guy we had contacted in the street was just there. We taught him and set a date. Super crazy experience and a miracle. Wednesday: Pretty slow day. But we found a guy with a lot of potential. Thursday: We had zone conference and it was super good. We had exchanges with the APs after and it went super well. We found a pastor of a church and taught him. Super interesting Friday: We were eating lunch with our branch g president when we started hearing lots of gunshots really close by and a lot of yelling. Kinda nuts. A while later we were walking...
