Man do I love my new area!!! This place is awesome!! Here the members are super generous and energetic about missionary work. Just in these last few days we've recieved at least two references and they also have told us times when they are available and said they'd love to come with us......... I FEEL LIKE I AM DREAMING!!! I am going to love this area so much!! These last few days have been pretty crazy because in the mornings we've had some service projects and all the members want to have us over so they can welcome us into the ward. They also say that in about a month I'm going to be super fat so if you have any simple workout plans that'll help burn fat quick let me know haha.
The investigators that we've met with are super cool. They are super excited and we put a baptismal date for the 17th and they're super excited about it. Their dad is a less active member who is coming back and wants his kids to be baptized. He is so determined that he asks for the pamphlet for the next lesson that we're gonna teach so he can go over it with his kids before we come over.... WHAT? I'm super excited for this area.
Some things about this area:
-Our house is huge and pretty decent. It doesn't have air conditioning so that'll be rough during Semana Santa but I'll send pics of the house that I took.
-The church is two stories and really new. It's about 2 blocks away from our house which is super close!
-My comp's name is Elder Sarceno(put a squigly mark above the n b/c I don't know how to on this keyboard haha) He's from Guatemala and has about 9 months in the mission so not much more than me. He's super animated and is super excited to work so I'm pumped
-This area is a ward and on sunday there were about 150 members so pretty cool. The weird thing is the schedule. We share the building with another ward so we have Priesthood first hour than sunday school(gospel principles with our investigators) and then Sacrament meeting last. Church starts at 8:30 too so that's also weird.
I love it here and I'm super excited. It's kinda dangerous to have a camera with you so I may not be able to take as much as I did in my last area but we'll see.
LOVE YOU ALL
Elder Beardall
