Week 60

Hello Friends and family,

I have some friends that you might want to meet because I keep getting new companions. I guess they all just can't stand being with me hahaha.

When I first showed up to Urdaneta city this was my companion Elder Ortazon for a solid 12 hours. I hadn't seen him since my first area in Alaminos and it was great to catch up with this gwapo guy.

This was my next companion, fresh from the MTC, Elder Nonu from Australia and I was with him for a solid 5 days of work and so I actually got to speak English inside the house since a long time.

Then, finally I received my first American companion on the field Elder Holtry from of course you guessed it UTAH. He is good at darts.

And this is us emailing right now

So a ton has happened in the span of one week and it has been quite an adventure being able to meet basically everyone in the mission and because I am in the center of the mission I get told a ton of the secrets and insights about it all. I am also trying to get used to seeing President Deyro all the time, but so far it's way fun.

I love you all

Elder Terry

Week 59 - ZL

A lot happened this week.

Sadly I lost my SD card with lots of pics. hahaha.

We were blessed to have 13 investigators at church.

We were blessed to have 2 of our upcoming baptism interviews pass for this Friday.

BUT

Unexpectedly, after 3 weeks into training my beloved anak Elder Davad, I was called to transfer as a Zone Leader to the Temple Zone in Urdaneta itself. I am quite sad that I didn't get to finish my training with Elder Davad. We had been so obedient and we had been having so much success coming up because I loved my ward mission leader and bishop and all the members and investigators.

The mission life really has a way of just slapping you across the face and pushing you to do things you never really thought you could do. I am starting from literally scratch so please keep me in your prayers. I really need your help. I went from 13 investigators at church as a companionship to 13 investigators at church for the entire Zone, so this will be quite interesting.

Sorry Family and friends it's boring no pics (next week I will send).

Week 57

This week was pretty rough because we were working so hard, but our goals were not quite reached. It's all good because I know for a fact that God is on our side helping us through the work. Just to remind you all that this mission thing that I am doing is not just a cool little experience, but it is the truth and I have no doubt about that. I really have no reason to be upset because life here is great and I still see miracles everyday, so my testimony is stronger than it ever has been before.
