Laura came to church on Sunday, but not her husband. We love him to death, but he just wants to do the things we leave with him at his house to do. Some
of the members of the branch are going to stop by and visit him. Also, Camilo and
his wife came to church again! They are awesome and have come to church like seven
weeks in a row! I love Camilo to death! I got a photo and will
try and send it. However, right now the computer that I'm using is super old school and for
some reason it can't read my camera. I´ll try to figure it out!
Yesterday were change calls. It's crazy how fast the time is going
by! I will be officially leaving Minas and going to Camino Carrasco, Montevideo! I'm excited because its super close to the mission home and will be my
first time to live in Montevideo! President Armstrong actually called me up a couple
of days ago and told me I would be a zone leader with Elder Brilliones (I
think he´s from Peru) and that there is a ton of work to do. My zone has many of the strongest wards in all of Uruguay and the mission home is in my
zone, so I'll be working with the assistants quite a bit. I don't understand quite
what that means, but vamo arriba! I´m super excited to have a
Latino companion again. I've heard he's a great missionary! I´ll let you know all about
him this next week!
So, I´m bummed that I'm going to be leaving Minas. It's been really awesome here and I've enjoyed it a ton! I´m also going to miss the
Alfajor´s. We live right next door to a factory of one of the most famous
Alfajor´s in all of Uruguay and they are super good! The
assistants and secretaries from the mission home called me up this morning and asked me to buy about 6 boxes of them (that's almost 100 packages of Alfajores!) so that I can bring them to them tomorrow
when we all get together in Montevideo. We are going to get fat!
It's crazy to think that I only have about six months left, but
I'm going to keep working and just do what I've been doing my whole mission and
end on a bang! I´ve been working super hard and have also been thinking
about my mission and the things that I want to do better. I have quite a few
goals and am honestly just super happy with how my mission has gone. I've
learned so much and am still learning everyday. I wouldn´t redo anything
that I've done thus far. I have no regrets and I'm going to keep it that
way!
Anyway, I want you to know that I love you and miss you
tons! I´ll update you next week on how things are in Montevideo.
