The Office Theme Song...
This week we had our first zone conference with Presidente y Hermana Toral. Poor guys had to come all the way to Riberalta from Santa Cruz on a bus, give 2 days straight of interviews, and a zone conference. They were SO lost and had no clue where they were.
One of the branches had a pioneer night so all the missionaries dressed up in our best pioneer attire and danced some cotton eye joe. Not gonna lie, we did good.
Saturday was super awesome! Three of the Ejuro kids got baptized! It was a super spiritual service and the family was so happy. This Friday the mom and dad are getting married, then the mom will get baptized on Saturday. So prayers for the Ejuro family! Their cousin, Denis, is preparing to go on a mission, so he comes and teaches with us a lot. It was super sweet to get to baptize with him!
Crazy transfer update! I'm going to be the new secretary. Kinda weird. I'm going from 8 months in the jungle, to being in an air conditioned office most of the day.
Tuesday will be a crazy travel day! At 5am we leave Riberalta in a taxi and drive 10 hours to Trinidad. Then we'll take a flight to Cochabamba, then a flight to Santa Cruz. It'll be 15 hours of travel!
If anyone's wondering if someone out there is praying for them, in church I had 3 sweet grandma's come up to me and thank me for my service, then tell me they pray every night for all the missionaries in the world, then missionary families, then missionary friends, and then everyone else... I love the people of Riberalta!!
Que tengan un día bendecido!
