Changes!

So this week we had our changes!  So I am now with Elder Mejia, and well it has been kind of an interesting week.  He is a good guy but he is just a little bit weird... He likes to talk a lot which is definately not me... but we do get along pretty good!  So we are looking forward to a good 6 weeks together!  I am super excited about this week here in La Libertad!  We have got some plans to go and baptize this Rodrigo kid that didnt end up getting baptized like 8 days ago but nowhe will get baptized!  So we are really hoping for that!

Also this week we visited Angel and he is doing great!  We were talking with him and I guess that his wife is now thinking about the whole baptism thing now that she saw him go through the process and so we just need her to go to church this next week and the week after and then we are going to baptize her!  So we are super excited for that!  I cant wait for that!  That will mean that I married that family and then baptized them!  

Now for something exciting... So on Saturday we had Stake Conference which takes place in San Benito which is about 1 hour away... and well we didnt have permission to go on saturday so we just went on sunday... But anyways so we were in La Libertad on Saturday and all the members were in San Benito...  And all the members had met in the church to head up there... and so it turns out that we get a call about 1 hour after they had left, from the Branch President, and he said that there was someone breaking windows in the church and that we needed to go check it out... So we went over there and two kids were in the church.. .breaking the windows... so when they saw us they ran... So we had to go look for them which was kind of a waste of time... but it was kind of fun... so we used our contacting skills and we ended up finding their house about 3 hours later after having looked over all La Libertad... and then we showed the Branch President the house and he went over there to get everything figured out on sunday!  So that was a pretty crazy experience this week!

But overall it was a pretty great week this week and we are looking for some success to come in these next few weeks!  My scripture for you guys is...  Alma 5:16... It is a little bit strong but I love it!

Love you all and see you in a few...

Changes

This week has been kind of a crazy week!!!  And a super long one!  But it was super fun!  So we started out on wednesday we did divisions again... and that was fun I was able to go with Elder Salazar and I learned a lot from him and well it was great to be with him for a little bit...

Then on Thursday we had the wedding for Angel and well that was good but it was boring as usual... The weddings here in Guatemala really arent that exciting... but it was really cool to see how happy they are now that they are married... Marriage it is a good thing, do it! So that was super exciting... then on friday we had to prepare everything for the baptism of Angel.. and well we figured out on like tuesday that Rodrigo wouldnt be getting baptized this week so we are planning on him to get baptised the 30th of August... So that will be exciting.. so that made our Friday a little bit easier because we only had to plan for one baptizm...  (p.s. I forgot how to spell baptism, if it is wilth an s or with a z so be patient...)  So then on saturday we baptized Angel and it was so cool!  We baptized him in a river... and that was super cool.. He is probably my best convert yet in the mission!  He is super great!  Im excited for him.

Then on Saturday we figured out our changes!  And I am going to be staying here in La Libertad.. and Elder Loveland is leavin so that is kind of sad... because he was one of my favorite companions...  So I am going to be getting a new companion... Elder Mejia... so I am excited for that!  I have had so many companions... I get a new one basically every change.. but Im ok with that because I am learning a lot of the social skills that I never really practiced before the mission... oops....  But all is well here!

Love Elder Stuart
