Its a new year and with people ready to make changes, the missionaries will be there to help. (1-4-16)
Well, as I expected it was a very difficult week, and one that didn´t have a lot of sucess, but we worked super hard! So there is one thing that we can control on the mission here, and that´s contacts, so we made a million contacts this week, the problem is that no one is looking to commit to anything and so it makes everything all the more difficult. So mostly we visited those investigators who we knew would accept us and we could share a message with them. It´s not much fun to leave the house everyday knowing that you might have 1 or 2 lessons and the rest of the 6 or 7 hours you´ll be knocking doors, but that´s a part of missionary life here. The good thing is that overall , with what we had in mind and the goals we established at the begginning of the week, it ended up good with us reaching most of our goals.
This week i went on a division with Elder jacobson, an elder who only has 3 weeks in the mission. It was awesome, and scary, because I didn´t have a brazilian to rely on. But we did awesome, and he speaks great Portuguese for only 3 weeks. I was super excited for the division, and it ended up being really great, and my comp really helped to excite the other area when he was there. It´s cool, because he´s a DL over 3 areas that are training missionaries. So he goes to the other area and trains the trainer, and I get to try and help the trainee if I can.... But I hope I helped a few of them out, and honestly, miracles always happen with divisions.
Me and my companion are super excited about this week. We are going to destroy some areas, it´s a New Year and the parties are over. People are ready to make big changes in their lives, and guess who will arrive ready to help them make these changes, the missionaries! Anyway, I´m super ready to get back into the swing of things! Also, on other thing, we´re having a World Wide conference for all missionaries on Jan. 20. I have decided that it´s something really big, and this is my conclusion. The church has established relations with China, and with the opening of a country with 1.8 billion people, they are sending all missionaries under 1 year to serve there. But anyway, that´s my theory, we´ll see what happens!
