Week 30: An amazing, crazy week!

Hola Familia y amigos!

This week was absolutely insane. I got my new companion Elder Gutierrez he’s awesome and  super funny.  Basically all Tuesday I just showed him around the area. On Wednesday  we had a great leccion with an investigator Jose Jiminez  and he accepted a date to be baptized. Then it was just more showing my companion  around the area. Then Thursday was awesome too! Our investigador Consuelo  who was traveling came back and we taught her and set her baptism for this next week! Then Friday was insane we were at lunch and I get a call from one of the Assistants...I'm getting transfered to Leticia!  Leticia is right at the very bottom of Colombia in the Amazon rainforest. There are only 4 missionaries serving there and I have to take a plane to get there!   So Brother Tingey the missionary plane joke won't work for my mission!haha. So I told my companion  and we just worked on teaching him the area. We also had a great leccion that day with these really nice older ladies, Sergio who was getting baptized on Saturday came with us! We set a date for baptism with them too! Then Saturday came, Saturday was amazing!  First Sergio's Baptism, it was awesome, he was so happy to get baptized! Then we went and got Pizza with him after his baptism! Then after that, some of my old investigators who moved were getting baptized too, so I got to go to their baptism! That was awesome. Then Sunday came, we went and got Sergio to bring him to church so he could get confirmed.   We also talked with some of our investigators to make sure that they could come to church.  We get to church and we had 10 investigators there! I also got to confirm Sergio, it was awesome, the first time I ever confirmed anyone. Then I got home packed all my bags and left Villo. I'm going to miss Villavicencio  but I'm excited to go start working in Leticia! Oh also this week I learned how to solve a rubix cube which is pretty cool! I love and miss you guys! hope you're all doing well!
