P-Day update week 75, 07/24/2023

Buenos días a todos!!


Well not a lot happened this week that was very memorable! We've been working to find new people and we've been helping a few of our friends get ready for baptism!!

New PMGs shrunk down into books!

I'll shoot in some bullet points of the highlights since there isn't too much to mention this week!

-Started off the week with a meeting with the stake presidency where we talked about the missionaries and the stake! We're excited to get some more things rolling as we work together!

-It's been a little hard when it comes to the ward. Everyone is great but everyone is leaving, we found out that almost ten members of the ward are moving away in these next couple weeks which is super sad! But it just means we have to work harder to fill the roles in the ward with new people!!

The spirit? The force? Who knows.

Cool sunset

-it's been raining a lot and I find myself with a small cold so please pray I can have a quick recovery and be back to normal soon!

-We put two new baptismal dates with our friends Derrick and Margaret! They come from a family where the majority are members! We hope to help them be baptized in August, and they went to church yesterday which was awesome!

-Our friend Eddy who is the member of an inactive family but still hasn't been baptized has been progressing very well!! He's been praying and reading The Book of Mormon! The next step is to get him to church, please pray for him that he might have the strength and courage to attend church this coming Sunday!

Little burger and wings place we found that wasn't actually that good haha!!

Encarcelated cat

Well thats about it! It's been raining a lot here so the heat hasn't been too I tense and we've just been working to find new people!

My quick spiritual thought is just a reminder to put your whole trust in the Lord. He knows so much better than we do. If we trust in him and give him all of our worries and anxieties he will take them and help us feel free! He is the master here and will come to help lighten our load if we give it to him!

I love you all so much! I'm sorry this is a shorter letter but I hope you all have a great week and can find happiness in doing good during these next few days!!

-Elder Garnica

Hola a todos! Espero que hayan disfrutado mucho su semana y que hayan disfrutado mis correos!! Well well well, I don't know when this happened but we got to my last email. These past few weeks have been a little bit of the same but there are some cool experiences I wanted to share with y'all!! Amairany's baptism! First we finally finished all the house inspections in the mission! After three weeks and many many hours of traveling we visited the 68 different houses in the mission and made sure that everyone was living in good conditions and properly cleaning their home! We saw some really cool quite clean houses, and some very not cool very dirty houses, it was definitely an experience!! One of the coolest things is that with this trip I officially got to see every single area of the mission, from Teocelo in the south then to Cerro Azul 9 hours all the way to the north. I'm so grateful to have been assigned to the Mexico Xalapa Mission, it is the greatest mission on the ...

-Miracles (Doña pili, Francisca, y Elio fam) Muy buenas tardes a todos ustedes! Espero que hayan tenido unas semanas excelentes!! I know I haven't written an email in a couple weeks, but really there wasn't too much to talk about the last two weeks! We've been super busy running around doing a lot of administrative stuff, but this last week we had some really cool experiences!!! MTZ/TEZ Zone Conference! To start off, there us one thing I should mention that happened a few weeks ago, like you all know every month we have a MLC. We usually do one month in person here in Xalapa and one month on Zoom, this month it was on Zoom! We had been thinking a lot about what we wanted to do in the meeting, and we came up with a few different ideas! We talked a lot about how revelation works, specifically what our stewardship is. This came up due to our recent focus on Standards of Excellence, a certain number of new friends, lessons with members, church attendances, etc. That we should a...

It's been a week! Not necessarily a great week, but a week nonetheless! Not too much happened so it'll probably be a shorter letter this time. Before anything, I'll let you guys know that I was once again sick this week. This whole week I've been wrestling with a nasty cough and just really bad cold-like symptoms. One day I called the medical coordinator of the mission who is also the President's wife and asked for some advice. She told me it might just be allergies and prescribed me Benadryl at night. Unfortunately it didn't really work. So I just decided to hang on for a few days. This morning I woke up and I couldn't smell :// I went to the pharmacy with Elder Mendoza and we bought a Covid test, we also had an extra test result block thing. We headed home and I took the test. Oh, he got me! That's right folks I have COVID! So that's why I felt like death this week. That means I'm just going to have more time to study this coming week!  Positiv...
