Preaching with Perez

September 11, 2017

[Week of September 4 – 10]

Monday - So today I got with Elder Perez again. It's been a really fun time being with him again and we are really excited for the chance we have to work together. Tonight we had a ward activity where we ended up just playing Fútbol with our investigators for a little while.

Tuesday - So today was a pretty normal day with some pass-bys and other finding methods involved. We were pretty tired by the end of the day because we had to spend quite a bit of time outside.

Wednesday - So this morning we had district meeting with our district. It's the combination of the missionaries in B3/B9. There's 10 of us in all. It was a really good meeting. Then after that we went to KFC with the Chinese Hermanas that serve in our ward as well as a returned missionary who is visiting from England. It was pretty fun. Then we met with Inocencia one of our best investigators. She's 71 years old and she's from Abancai, Peru. Apparently you have to go through there to get to Cuzco, so, Dad I bet you've been there before. She's really awesome and is progressing a ton. The only bad thing is she has surgery this upcoming week and then it's gonna be like 2 months before she can be baptized. She's really great though and she LOVES the church.

Thursday - This morning we did weekly planning. We have a tradition that whoever loses the game of chess we play at the beginning has to fill everything out while we are planning. I lost...so I had to fill it out this time. But, it was really good. Then this afternoon we worked on an application we use called maps.me to update all of the info in there. Then tonight we played fútbol like always with our group on Thursday nights. It was really good.

Friday - This morning we did a whole bunch of phone calls to clean out our area Book. It was fun. We dropped like 70-80 people today alone. Haha! Then we ate lunch. Then we had a lesson with Inocencia. It was good. Just trying to help give her some support before she has her surgery. She actually made us papa La huanciana. It was really good. We had ward family home evening tonight. Then afterwards we played fútbol with the youth. We are really trying to reach out to them because they are really trying to improve and gain their own testimonies.

Saturday - Today was really good. This morning we had a meeting with the District leaders in our zone to set goals for this upcoming transfer. Then after that we ate lunch. Then we had a bunch of lessons that failed us today so we did a lot of finding. It was a pretty good day overall though. We met some good people.

Sunday - Church was amazing today! Then we ate with a member named Enma and her family. They made rice and beans and pork chops. It was pretty good. Then we had a lesson with a new lady named Felicia. She's pretty great. She's from Paraguay. Then we had Noche de JAS. Then the day was over.

Monday - Today we played basketball in Pavones with like 15 other Elders. It was really fun. Then we 'rebaptized' the two new Elders in our district. Which otherwise means we ate kebab with them for the first time. They liked it. Kebab isn't exactly the healthiest thing you can eat. Well, life is good love you guys.

Love,

Elder Harris
