Today was a wonderful day. We
were in the office pretty much the whole time. I got up, did some workouts for
about 45 minutes then worked on some presentation things for president. Anyways, we then went and ate lunch with the assistants and zone
leaders at a lovely place called San Martin. It was so pleasant.
Following that we got the news that a sister was coming back
in the mission again so I prepared her money and everything. I then did some
coding to prepare the documents for president’s reunion ( I have done a whole
bunch of programming and am starting to get the hang (or basic understanding
of) VBA, python, java and google script. It is a whole lot of fun.
Anyways, that was an enjoyable experience. We then all got
new beds!! We called the truck guy ( I lowered the price with my Chapin
bargaining skills from 250 to 170) and gave ourselves brand new beds. What a
refreshing concept that is. We came back to the office -after helping a man
move his broken car- and I finished editing the code. I was editing when I felt
a very distant impression: Look up a conference talk about the man who was a
zone leader and had to say a prayer to save his life.
Shocked at the prompting, I closed my coding and searched it
to find it. I couldn’t find it at all. No matter what I searched it wasn’t
there. I found some other cool articles on lds.org though. Finally, I asked my
comp “Hey, do you know that conference talk about the guy who almost falls and
says a prayer”.
“Yeah, this one”
I look and he is literally half way through it, listening to
it. I brought my chair into his room and listened to it all. Wow! That talk was
exactly what I needed. It was amazing; I felt the spirit strongly and just a
great feeling of peace. I was so happy I listened to that talk. It was just perfect.
What a fun day this was. We had our second multizone. The
first one was in HUEHUE yesterday. That was a blast. I filled out an interview
with the mission about how to be a more consecrated missionary. I liked it. It
was nice. I played piano and gave a comment that president and
the assistants quoted later that day and in Xela. The comment was when I was a
zone leader about a year ago I remember that President Diaz came in the
mission: he asked us what a miracle would be. The whole counsel was full of
miedo (scared) and my companion raised his hand and said “60, 60 would be a
miracle.”
Since January we have gotten more than 60 every single month
in baptisms. How about that.
Anyways, good times. Always good moments with president.
Today we went to Xela and had an enjoyable time here too. I played piano and did the presentations on the computer.. Anaya’s, good multizone (same as Huehue Pretty much but the spirit changes based on the needs of those who president taught and so his teachings did too.

Good times. Anyways, I did a whole bunch of work for
president ( he asked me to do a huge assignment for all the stake presidents in
Xela and Huehue, so I am going to do it tomorrow. Also they celebrated my
birthday a month earlier seeing as I am going home in two and they celebrate
birthdays every 4 months.
Then I printed out checks,
drove to the hospital had president sign them, returned, gave a scripture study
desk to some sisters in San Mateo, went to Cantel, got lost, found Cantel, gave
the sisters a fridge and microwave and a blessing to a sick sister. I felt the
spirit strong as I gave the blessing. I was just so happy that I could get the
right words in my head and just feel good. I love the priesthood. I understand
that I need it because I need those experiences.
My companions here in the office are punching each other
with newspapers.
Now back to programming the excel page.
