VERACRUZ-IN' : The Week of Batallón Mormons

Week number 2 with Elder Reyes week super well!! Jason's baptism went great, despite them calling us the night before to ask to change the hour of the baptism.... We had to change it from the afternoon to 9 in the morning, not many members showed up to his baptism... but besides that it went extremely well!!

This week we were able to find a couple more people to teach that we think really have a lot of potential to progress! We're excited to see how everything comes along with them! Unfortunately neither of them came to church.... which was their loss cause they didn't get to hear me give my tenth talk in the mission!!!!! WAHOOOOOO! Haha! We showed up to church and the second counselor in the bishopric gave Elder Reyes and I the news that they needed us to speak cause they didn't have anyone else. It went fairly well actually, it's really just teaching a lesson by yourself to a group of people without asking questions. I was quite pleased after sacrament meeting ...until, bishop asked me to start the gospel principles class until he got there to take over... of course he got there with 10 minutes left in the class. Safe to say it wasn't my most peaceful Sunday... :)

After church we ate lunch (a sister made us hamburgers, hotdogs, and french fries, it was delish) ... then we had to head over to the stake center to meet with all the other missionaries to hop on a bus to go to Cardel for an activity called, Un Batallón Mormon. This is when basically all the missionaries get together in one area with the members of that area and we all go on divisions to visit less active members, knock doors, and visit investigators. It was pretty fun, especially since I got paired with a member who has a car. Earlier that week on Wednesday we had another Batallon Mormon in the Reserva ward, which was also a fun experience (even though that time my comp didn't have a car).
