27 Sept. 2010: Pedro Juan Caballero Week #14

Dear Family and Friends
 
Thanks for your letters! I am glad you got the letters and pictures this week and hope that you enjoy them! This week for me was very interesting, heres the jif of the summery......rain, rain, rain, rain, hail, more rain, rain, rain. It rain so much and not just little rain but it rained until the streets were running with water. Here is an idea...we went to church in our flip flops and our pants rolled up passed our knee the waited at chuch for people to come and out of the normal 35 members that come only two showed up. We went by our investigators and most wouldnt even open their door. So with me my comp and the two members we didnt even have bread for the sacrament. 
 
It was nuts though on saturday it hailed like golf ball sized hail and damaged alot of houses. Luckly our house has a good roof and we were fine. 
 
As for other events we went to santa clara on thursday again for service taking the alemientos to the indians I think the are going to come to pedro juan for conferance. I am way excited for conferance it will be great to hear the counsel the prophet has for us. 
 
We have some great investigators and are still working with Cristobal and his family he hasnt got the preisthod yet because of the rain and our President hasnt comr for like three weeks 
 
Other than that I am love my time here in pedro juan with my new comp Elder Conder. We are doing great together. The mission is great. I know that the Church is true. That Jesus lives and love each of us. I am super excited to here about Davids call. 
 
As for christmas I dont care If you send me a package, I  want money so I can send you guys a package, haha but if you insist I could use a couple ties and new socks.   
I love you ton Love Elder Call

19 Sept. 2011: Luque Week #6

Dear Family and Friends,  I had another great week, we found some good new investigators and brought five of them inchurch,  I feel that the branch is getting better now, we had those first few weeks I was here that were full of so many problems, but I feel that they have strengthened me and the other members of the branch. The attendance is rising weekly. It has been tough for me to come here to amparo and leave all of the people from saldo and the success there but I know that the Lord sent me to Amparo for a reason. I learn alot from elder Roeller hes a good missionary and always positive and animating. I am greatful to finish my mission with him. We had some special changes in our zone and since Wendsday I have been with elder Roeller and Elder Patterson. Elder Patterson is from Canada and is Elder Humphreys` best friend from back at home, its cool because we are great friends.  I am not sure we sill have a baptism before I go, because the girl that was close, needs m...

No I had a great week too, we are working hard and I am really enjoying my time with Elder Che. He is a hard worker and has good views on how to work effectivly. We are working most with the members. Last week we made Little sheets that have a scripture and a little note from us that is for references. We havent really recieved one yet but several of the members have invited and are planning for a time that we can go with them to visit. I am excited for it because we really need it we need more investigators. Several of the members are just great there is a Sister Medina that is like 70 years old that is one of my favorites.

She is just s...

Dear Family and Friends,         Thanks for your letters this week. I am doing good and the week passed by really quickly. It is really starting to cool down a bit here in Paraguay so that is nice. It is crazy that it will basically be cool the rest of my mission. We are really excited for Sergio and Ever. Sergio blessed the Sacrament for the first time yesterday and did great! he was also called or assigned to be like an assitant to  the Secretary of the ward So that wil be good. Ever I am sure will bless the sacrament this week to come it is awesome to see that they are getting so involved and and that they are doing so well. Ever got his sister to come which was a great sign for us his family is opening up a lot they still arent progressing really toward baptism but they will come around, His mom is really catholickind of I guess she knows alot and doest really practice any of it. I am excited to see what happens. The members are helping alot r...
