Getting Ready for Elder Cook's Visit and a New Comp...

We learned how to make pies in the church with J--, our recent convert.

Hey everybody. Well I will start out by virtually introducing my companion. His name is Elder A-- from Honduras. He has 18 months in the mission. This is his first time being a zone leader, so I am showing him the ropes. The good thing is that he has the desire to work. Well this week was good.  The zone did well. It is still improving little by little. Right now we have 2 baptisms set for the 25th. We should baptize 3 this month.

Here is some wipil I bought. It is really cool.

This week all the missionaries are so excited. Elder Cook is coming this Saturday. We are all getting ready - like cutting our hair, washing our suits, and mentally preparing for the huge machete that his is going to give us. We are all getting ready to be spiritually renewed.

Today was a little interesting.  The sisters had a huge fire in their house. We are going to go later to talk with the owner and see the damage. 

This is Sija.  It is parto of our zone.

The quote for the week is, "Over-anxiety is like pulling up the daisies to see how the roots are doing." Neal A. Maxwell This is just like setting a baptism date with our investigators.  You have to wait for the perfect time. Well I am sure that I will have a lot to talk about with an apostle coming.

P.S. Sorry if forgot to mention that we have had 3 earthquakes this week. Looks like the world is going to end. One of them was pretty strong. It was strong enough to make us leave our house. Love you guys.
