Helllloooooo brothers and sisters.
We
had a super busy week this week! To
start off, on Tuesday, we had a training with the Mission President as well as
another zone that came from tierra caliente, Villavicencio! [side note: “tierra caliente” is a Colombian expression that refers to warmer places
in Colombia below 1000 meters (3200 feet) above sea
level. Due to Colombia’s position within the Equator and in the
Andes every town or city below 1000 meters above sea level is warm(ish)
and therefore called “Tierra Caliente” by everyone living above that altitude.
Bogota is about 2600 meters (8300 feet).
They have colder temperatures on average compared to the other regions
in the country. You can find “Tierra
Caliente” about an hour away from the city].
It
was a super spiritual meeting and of course learned a lot. My companion and I had the chance to give a
training to everyone based on the unity and trust in a companionship, to be
able to work with the spirit. And it
went swell. Haha. I was also able to
catch up with one of my chillest comps, Elder Canales! So that was super sweet!
We
also found a bunch of new investigators this week! It’s the best when we work
with the members, because we are able to find people that are actually wanting
to get baptized! So all of you at home,
share the gospel! :) We were able to find Juan Camilo, Viviana, and Sofia! A Family of 3! Also Jorge and his wife (we havent taught her
yet, but we will tonight). Then another
which was Jose Miguel! I’m super excited for this upcoming week to be able to
work with them!
Friday in the morning with the zone leaders and district leaders
we had a meeting to prepare us for the zone meeting on Saturday!
And
both meetings went super well! Saturday,
we had our open house with the ward. The
whole presentation was super awesome, but the number of investigators that we
were hoping would come, wasn’t what we were hoping for. But we did get a reference of a lady named
Angelica that is super awesome, and she ended up going to church on Sunday! So we’re pumped to be able to teach her!
Thanks
everyone for all the love and support! Stay
safe and read the scriptures!
