Hey guys, so I finally left Universitario. It´s been a sad goodbye. I have really came to love Universitario. I will never forget the experiences and memories I have had there and the people I have come to love there.
We had the baptism of Mayra Càceres Saturday. She asked me if I could baptize her. I feel like the fruits of my labors finally paid off. After 6 months, Mayra finally got baptized! It was a tough effort and my companion and I fought for her and tried very hard. We felt like the Lord did his part. We showed our willingness and he put his hand in the work.
A lot of goodbyes this week. I don´t like goodbyes. I like to just work and move on, but It was quite sad to leave there. So many families and people that I will never forget. (Familia Caceres, Familia Trejo, Familia Gomez, Familia Santucho, Graciela, Jose Paz, Obispo Salinas, etc) I didn´t think I would cry but man the tears got to me. I hope I can visit there again.
I have been transferred from a strong ward to a weak branch. I have left The Ghettos of Tucumán to The Fields of Jujuy. It´s so weird. I actually don´t feel like I need to worry about getting robbed here haha. I have been called as District Leader. This is my first time and I am excited and nervous at the same time. My companion is Elder Mejia. I lived with him in the same pension in Salta. I get along real well with him. He is from Medellin, Colombia. I call him Pablo Escobar. We have a district of 6. Elder Mejia and I, and 4 sister missionaries. Let´s see how this goes....
My papi, Elder Cloud, is our Zone Leader so I´ll get to veritfy with him and do divisions with him haha.
I feel like the challenge is upon us now. I am excited to get to work here. It´s gonna be a test but I know we can do wonders here. I am excited for the challenge. I know Elder Mejia and I are gonna find some new people and baptize some great converts.
Sorry not much time, but thank you for all the love and support!
Ciao!
