Hey everyone! This was a pretty good week with my new
Companion!
My
companions name is Elder Sotoski and he’s from Brazil!! He is an awesome guy! We work really well together and I am super
grateful for the chance that I have to be able to teach him the ways of the
mission!
This
week, not a ton of stuff happened. On
Tuesday, I had to go to the Mission Presidents house to have a training meeting
and pick up my new companion. I had to
wait like 8 hours to be able to find out who my comp was, and when they
announced who our companions were, President Baquerizo said that my comp wasn’t
going to be arriving until Wednesday at 3:30. After the whole day of anxiously waiting, I
had to wait a whole other day! haha I was super excited to meet my new
companion. I could see that the Lord was
truly testing my patience! haha! But I met him! He’s just starting to speak Spanish, so a lot
of the time he will throw a lot of Portuguese in there and it confuses me! haha
but it’s great, because I’m starting to learn Portuguese as well! haha!
We
have this thing called 12 semanas (weeks) that we use to help out the new
missionaries, and I challenged Elder Sotoski to put a baptismal date in the
first lesson. Last night we had the
chance to put a date, and my stud of a comp totally did it without any fear! It
was awesome!! Can’t wait for what’s
ahead!
We
ended up giving Sandy a new baptismal date for the 30th of July. I explained that it was my boy- Elder Wilson’s
birthday and that she needed to make that day a special one! I don’t think she thought it was as funny as I
did!
This
upcoming week should be a good one! I’m
excited to see what happens!
Love
you all and I hope you keep reading your scriptures!
