Week 16






 I just finished my 10th week in the field...... crazy


Had some funny things happen to me this week.  I had some (greenie moments)  hahaha.  

1st.  I was talking to one of our friends and she asked me "where are you from"  and for some reason I thought that she said "do you have a girl friend".  So I said no no but when I get back I'll have a girlfriend but not right now.  Then my comp started laughing at me and I had no idea why.  Then she looked at me all confused, I was confused she was confused, everybody was confused about what the heck I just said. 😂😂

2nd. We were talking to this one friend of ours, and I didn't really understand what he was saying so I was just sitting back.  Then I saw him start laughing I wanted to be involved in the conversation, so I stood up and just agreed with what he was saying by saying "aye me too man!".  Then everybody started laughing at me and my companion started to die laughing and I was sitting there so confused and I had no idea what was going on.  It turns out that he asked if we could have girlfriends on the mission.  My companion said we could but they can't come visit us in the Dominican.  And we can't have relationships here in the DR.  And then this dude said something along the lines of.  "Oh man I couldn't go 2 years without a girlfriend “ and right after that is when I stood up and said "Yea me too man!"  So yea... #greeniemoment 

But other than that, this week was really good. It rained a lot.  We met a really cool family that is ready to be baptized, we had the restoration lesson with them and their faces lit up and it's the best experience to help people discover the truth!

   This is gonna be a long one... This week was very busy.. Monday was pretty normal.  Tuesday we had Zone Conference and I got to direct the meeting which was pretty cool.   Wednesday we had Zone Council. My companion and I taught our zone about the things we learned in MLC last week.  After that we had exchanges with La Victoria. I went with Elder Mortensen. Lit exchange, we had fun out there.   Thursday we exchanged back and we had some really long morning lessons.  We didn't get back  until 2pm  (lunch is  from 12-2:30 ). So we only had lunch for 20 minutes until we had to go to work again. Later that night the APs text us and tell us that the President wanted to do MLC AGAIN on Friday.   It was a pretty good MLC. We made good plans for our Zone. Then Pres bought us all Wendys🤝. Pres left early from The meeting and all of us debated about changing P-day and weekly planning day. It was pretty dope. We got bac...

  Wepa! Lots of contacting this week A lot of our old friends that were progressing towards baptism stopped progressing.  So that sucks.  But it's ok because we found a few diamonds in the rough this week!   Thanks to everybody who wished me a happy birthday last week it really meant a lot to me!  This birthday was really good.  I ate a dozen krispy kreme donuts and some hamburgers🙌🙌. We got robbed again!!  Homie just keeps playing with us.  This time he took my phone and some other stuff from the other missionaries.  That's the 4th time this has happened lol. Ricardo could not get baptized this week but we're getting there!! I took a bunch of  pictures this week but the phone got robbed so they got lost. We're going to the temple this week!
