307 days

Sorry for not writing ya'll last week. I was a bit busy. But I'm trying to change that. This week has had its ups and downs. I had a good time on Monday. We relaxed at home a good while. Then after that we went to the institute building to see some members there. I met mamma Yates, a member that loves missionaries. We talked for a while and also played some ping-pong. We had a good time. After our preparation day was over, we went to the St. John's elders' house to start our exchanges. I served in that area not too long ago. I had a blast being back in my old area. We visited a lot of my recent converts and most of the members of the spanish group. It brought back a lot of memories. I had a great time that exchange. I hope that I get to have a lot more like that.
For a few days my companion was feeilng sick. He had an upset stomach and felt really bad. A lot of members say that it was a virus, but I think that he ate something that didn't go well with his stomach.A few days ago, we found a girl that was looking for the church. She was an active member in Mexico but she moved here two years ago and she has been inactive since. We encouraged her to go back to church and to invite her boyfriend. She looks like she really wants to come back. Lets see what happens!
We had a bar-be-que with a bunch of the members of our spanish group. We went to Hermano Diaz's house to eat with them. They seriously bought a whole cow. We so much! And the worst thing is that by the time we left, there was still food left. And it was a lot of people, around 30. It was good though. I had not eaten that much in a while. An ex-missionary visited us there. He was companion with my companion a while ago and we talked for a long time. He is also my trainer's trainer. It was nice!
On Sunday I had my first confirmations. First I confirmed Leticia Luna and my companion confirmed Alfonzo, her husband. After that I went to my last area to confirm Jesus Gutierrez. It was a neat experience to be able to confirm some one a member of the church. It took us a while but we finally did it.
