Ward Hopper....I hardly know her!!!
Well, transfers came.....
I'm staying in Villa Maria, but I'm moving over
to the neighboring ward La Madrid! What's awesome is that I'm now with
Elder Reynolds (my workout buddy lol)! He's way dope, but we got a little problem.
He has 5 transfers in Argentina and I have 2 transfers, which
means we're both still green! This is gonna be fun, being a couple
of gringos running a huge area! It's gonna be way loco haha!
So we did have a baptism! Mayra chose to
be baptized this last Sunday, which was awesome! On top of that, Douglas
and Kevin who were baptized the week before came and were confirmed.
We had some disappointments this past week
too. Clever and Elias who were baptized with Douglas and Kevin did not
come to church to be confirmed. We are not sure what has happened, but it
hurts. We were absolute buddies with them. They were so freaking excited
to see us every time we showed up! Now they don't pick
up their phones when we call and if we do catch them they just don't have
that fire anymore. We have literally no idea what happened. Satan
has been really working hard on them, and it sucks that I'm no longer in
the ward now, so I will be praying and hoping things get better and that Elder
Summers will continue to work with them. Also, it was really sad to
lose one of our investigators, Katerina, who says that she is not going to be
coming to church anymore and that she doesn't want to be baptized.
Finally, I'm done with my training!
Truthfully, I'm also freaking scared to know that both Elder Reynolds and I
have such little experience in the field, this is going to be interesting.
Thankfully, we both love to work hard, go to the gym and take care of ourselves
in general. We're best buddies, so I know that at least I'll have a fun
transfer haha!
Oh, and I finished the Book of Mormon in
Spanish! If I can do it in Spanish, I know you all can do it pretty
easily in English. Please go read it so that you can feel Gods love for
you. Thank you for the love. Thank you for the prayers. God bless.
Love,
Elder Pomar
Ps. Got to say goodbye to Elder Johnson :(
Pps. On top of that, I'll send pics of the
baptism next week!
