Another great week in
Tihuatlan! This upcoming week is transfers so this might be my last
which would be super sad. This little town gave me a lot that I will
forever be grateful for. Let's talk about the week!!
Last
week at our District meeting we all agreed (for some reason) that if we
didn´t hit our companion goals for the week we would have to wax a part
of our legs. Of course we only set high goals out here in Tihuatlan so
we came up short and had to get M X waxed into our legs (Mexico Xalapa).
Super fun time, and the smooth m x on my leg is a nice change as well
as a reminder to hit the goals that we set. Goal setting is something
really important that I have learned and come to love here. It gives us
so much direction and when we set high, but reasonable goals the Lord
blesses us with the help and direction we need.
This
week we had a lot of disappointments, a couple HUGE appointments fell
through that we needed and it didn´t feel like we made huge progress
with our current investigators. We spent a looooot of time walking, but
were able to figure out a lot of our plan for the upcoming week. We are
hopeful for a lot of progress this upcoming week. We have a really small
branch, with many members who are inactive or less active. Because of
that one of our focuses has been on reactivating members. It has been
interesting to visit a lot of these members and see how the gospel can
re-bless their lives. We have gotten a couple of these inactive members
to come to church these past couple weeks and I have visibly seen their
change when they go. The Lord blesses us immensely when we keep the
Sabbath Day Holy and attend church.
I am starting a new exciting section to this email!!
Tortilla Count this week: 46
Honestly disappointing start to the tortilla count update but I will hope for more next week.
Love and miss you all!
