Photos!

Fireworks on New Years, the people by our house started a little fire... oops... but it didnt get bigger than what it is in the picture... like 2 inches big... so I guess you could say that they didnt even start a fire.. but whatever...  

Me and Elder Zaugg on divisions

Mutual for the group... we played basketball!

And some little kid that we are teaching (his mom) and he thinks he is rambo...

Que onda!

Well first off I got stuck witha crappy keyboard, and Im sick of fixing the mistakes butthe space bar doesnt work to well so yeah you are going to have todeal with it...  Butthis week was a good week for us... we had a lot of success... With one of our investigators from a long time ago we finally were able to put a fecha for baptism with him... so he is going to be baptized next week so we are excited for that... also we were able to get 2 more investigators in church along with douglas(our fecha)  and all of them came on their own desire... so that was super great!  Also we were able to have a baptism for a kid in our ward that they invited us to go come to his baptism...and to helphim to be confirmed... so that was great...  

Also we did divisions again this week and well I ended up going to the offices of the mission to workfor a day!  It was pretty fun, i was one of the finance elders... so I got to payfor some things and we went to the bank to take out money for all the missionaries and stuff like that for about 3 hours... then we went to work in the area of these elders... and that was a good experience... I learned a little bit more about the importance of the book of mormon... well my testimonywas already super strong about this... but it helped it out a little bit more... so that was a good experience...  

But yeah not much else happened this week... so yeah other than about2 hours ago we killed a chicken and then ate it.. but i mean that was pretty interesting... but youll learn more about that with the pictures...

Love you all!

Divisions

This week was pretty interesting!  We had divisions again, but this time I went with the Elders that are usually in the office... so that was quite the experience.  I went to be companions with Elder Kumpf, who talked to mom on the phone... and Elder Bashaw, who is my grandpa in the mission, went to my area for the day...  So yeah we got there at like three and we went to work in their area, and it was actually a pretty slow day, but we were still able to have some success and find some new investagators..  But when we do divisions we usually do if for 24 hours, and no less...  so I went to the offices the next morning for like 2 hours and it was so weird...  We were doing all the finances for the mission, and Hna. Curtiss, Presidents wife, brought cookies... So yeah It was a little bit different missionary work, just sitting in a chair, doing finances and eating cookies for 2 hours, then I went back to my area... which I was super greatful for...  It is so much better to be working in the field than in an office...  

And for General Conference this week... IT WAS AMAZING!!  Sadly we didnt have many investigators go, because we had to travel like 15 minutes in a bus to get there, so yeah they didnt really want to go.. But we did have 2 people that did watch it and now they want to get baptized...  IT is amazing the power of the Prophet and the Apostles....  This guy that watched it really didnt want much of the church before he saw it... He was staying at a members house for the weekend(his cousin) and so he decided to watch it, but the sad thing is that he doesnt live in oure area, he actually lives in Quiche, which is by Jonnys first area...  But yeah so that was great to see the change in him, but he wont be able to get baptized because he literally lives in the middle of nowhere...  But we are going to work on that...  And the other investigator that watched it wants to get baptized too... So yeah that is pretty amazing the power of them....  

So yeah this week was pretty great... But the next week will be even better!!!  Until next time!

Love Elder Stuart

Divisions again...

This week well Im not quite sure what happened... My mind is kind of blank right now...  But yeah we had a decent week this week, I think but i honestly dont remember..  But yesterday in church we were able to take three investagators to church with us so that was pretty great!  So we did divisions again with the other area Los Campos 1(Im in Los Campos 2) and I went over there again...  This time it was a little bit different, because I went with Elder Veliz, who knows a little bit of queqchi, and we taught a lot of people in queqchi, well actually let me rephrase that, he taught a lot of people in queqchi, because I dont know it...  So yeah but that was pretty fun becasue I was able to watch him teach and learn some new things.  Then we were able to put two dates for baptisms in their area.  So that was pretty fantastic.  

And in our area we have 4 new people that have a goal for baptism on the 19th of April, so we are working really hard for that...  We are really excited for the work that we are going to be having in this area..  But I hope that I dont leave it.. Because I might be leaving here in two weeks, but who knows right...  But yeah this week was pretty good...  We are having some of the most success in this time that I have had in my mission, but it is the only time that I havent really had baptisms, so that is a little weird, but I hope that the success will come within this next month for this area.  Because this area wasnt really progressing when I got there, and it is still a little slow, but I think that it will pick up in a month or so..  But yeah thanks for todo.

Oops that last line was spanglish, but You understand... Right?

Love Elder Stuart
