week 70 La Kennedy

SO my new area is super cool. Also I have discovered that if I hand out candies while contacting, people tend to be more positive, who would´ve known. 

So it´s true what I heard. The baleadas here in the Kennedy really are the best. They are ridiculously good.

Right now I am in a trio, maybe I´ll take a pic. But it´s only been for a few days. My new companion is Elder Padilla. He is a new missionary, waiting for his visa to go to Mexico in January. So this will be my 5th companion that is new. Woohoo. 

My area is super small, in fact I drew a map of the area in my agenda. It´s THAT small. But it´s great.

Don´t have a lot of time to write, love you all hope you all have a rad week.

Love, Jake.

Lazer Cat, Hna Aplicano my grandma, Alice, my best friend´s daughter, AND this is what a pulperia is with my favorite pulp owner. And Elder Gamez creeped up on me.

week 69 La Kennedy

Changes Changes Changes

So I`m peacing out of the mountain, and heading out to La Kennedy. It`s actually not that far away from where I am right now, but supposedly it`s a really nice area. So, cool.

My new companion is Elder Fonseca, he is actually in a pic with me from earlier, when I jumped super high, yeah. That pic. He is from here in Teguc, he`s just waiting for his visa to go to Canada on his mission. 

I went and said goodbye to a bunch of members yesterday, and said goodbye to my abuelita Hna Aplicano and she gave me a big hug. I love her. She told me to make friends with her grand daughter in the states, her name is Andrea Gourley and she goes to BYUI cough cough Eryn look her up.

I`m just pumped for my changes really.

This fast Sunday, Alejandro got up to bear his testimony :`) I died.

It`s just been a great week. Hope the pics convey that.

OH also, well there was a Consejo this week. Basically just a leadership meeting that I went to, and it was cool. But the crazy thing was this infestation of grasshoppers. I forgot to take pics the day of, but this is the day after, when they were all dead. There were so many it was crazy, the picture shows nothing.
