MONDAY - Pretty normal pday. We emailed and then headed right to the church after stopping at McDonad's. We played for about 6 hours!! I was so sore! We got back and showered and got ready for the noche de hogar we had with the serranos and the morales. We ate hot dogs and then the morales gave us a ride home.
TUESDAY - HAPPY BDAY ADAM!!! also the anniversary of my mission
president and his wife. 30 years!! We didn't have a district meeting
today due to the meeting tomorrow so we went ahead and went to the
office to send my bike. It took forever!! We finally got it packed up
and sent! DONE! We left and got back just in time to head to dinner with
the Ordaz family and it was way good. Elder Trover got sick in the
process. We then rode all the way down to the south of our area to teach
Jason and it was way good! He is super ready and we bumped his date up
to my last weekend in the mission! We then headed to the Cruz family
real quick to start a list with them and then headed home beat!
WEDNESDAY - Interviews today!!! President told me not to slow
down, to sprint to the finish line! It was a long meeting! Our zone is
huge so it took some time. We got done and went back and had a ton of
stuff going on. We had a lesson with Jason and just taught a few of the
commandments and then Christian came with us to a dinner with Liz who we
got to know and just talked about baptism and other questions she had.
Way nice girl. We then went and played the "magic chair" with the
Montelongo family and they loved it. We are going to do that with my
family when I get back for sure! We got dropped off after that.
THURSDAY - Planning!!!!!! we got done and headed to dinner with
the Ayalas with all 6 of us. We have two new elders who are waiting for
their visas to go to Mexico so they are with the other elders now. We
had a quick lesson with Alberto and then we had a lesson with the
Galdamez family who invited us to a pentacostal family night thing? Then
we had English classes which went well. The weather is getting better
here, our bike ride home was perfect!
FRIDAY - We tried to finish planning today, I've never been so
tired in my life!! I have to finish strong though! We taught the
Orellana family and she is a girl with a son on his mission but she is
super less active so we went in and shared a scripture with her. We had
to schedule a late dinner at 7 with the serranos because the Xivir
family canceled on us. We headed to have dinner after our lesson and had
some good tostadas. Christian puts on the playoffs! UGH!! biggest
distraction! We have a prayer and then get out of there to try and get
up north again and have a quick lesson with the Figueroas. SOUTH NORTH
SOUTH NORTH! lots of biking today.
SATURDAY - We had the zls come over in the morning for a bit and
then we headed to our coordination meeting at the church at two. We
stayed and planned an activity before booking it back down to our
appointment to be picked up for dinner. We got picked up by Ramoncito to
go eat pupusas and my companion and I ate 4 each. A TON! He was joking
around that he is going to come to Utah and marry Aubrey hahaha, he is
kind of a weird guy. We had ice cream after and then headed home. We
tried to have a lesson with the Soreano family before the night ended
and didn't catch them there.
SUNDAY - Good sabbath. We had Jason there at church and he is
still solid as ever. We planned a temple trip with him and his girl
friend and we are super excited. Its weird when you're sitting there
listening to things the branch has planned knowing you will not be there
ha. We got out and waited an hour or so for president Gomez to take us
to his house to eat dinner where we didn't get back till 7:30. We tried
to visit one less active before coming back to do numbers. The south
part of our area is sketchy! But we came back alive :) Thanks for
following! love,
Elder Jackson
