Just another day in the office, errr week I guess. Except we had more elderes going home. We had one group that went home a few weeks early for their classes. The sad part was I know way too many of them and it was sad to see them go but good to see they served so well for these two years!
On tuesday Elder Viñas of the quorum of the Seventy was here and he met with all the zone leaders, and then we had lunch with him! haha It was pretty cool, and I heard lots of good things from the conference they had! We are definitely going to really crack down now. I think this year hasnt been going quite as planned, but it is time to get to work and just go get it done!
Wednesda, Elder Peteresen y Elder Castillo came down for their last few days in the mission. That was cool that I got to see them before they left to go home. The sad thing was the temple was closed, but on the plus side we got to say goodbye to everysingle one personally! I still feel so young in the mission, but every change more and more missionaries are going home that I know and it is just kinda crazy to see so many good Elderes go home!
Sadly this change has required a lot from us in the office, and so we have had near the same amount of time to be out in the streets and teaching. We have been working like crazy and its interesting because since I am training Elder Valladares to do everything, it goes a little bit slower, because he has to remember and learn how to do everything! We are still working hard! I cant believe we are already halfway through the change. Next thing I know I am going to be out and about and 100% focused on the work again! WOO HOO! LUNCH WITH THE MEMBERS!! WOO! haha In the meantime I will enjoy these last few weeks that I have here in the office! I love the mission! its so great!
One funny note, one elders parents came to get him and his dad actually served in the same mission (Viña) and his old mission companion came with them! And (dont get lost now) his dad´s old companions wife was talking with me and I asked about their family, and she told me their oldest child was a 19 year old girl. She then continued on and offered to introduce me to her daughter when I finish in a year!!! HAHA! It was kinda funny!
Well thats all the excitingness of this week. I love it, I love my family, I love my life! Cuidense todos!
