| Goodbye Elder Little! |
So
this week was just pretty crazy for sure...
On
Tuesday we had a combined district meeting with the whole zone which was pretty
fun and then headed to Sister Persaud's house. She is one of the longest
members of the church in Trinidad and has an amazing house! Crazy amounts of
books and it was just amazing! She made us these hand pressed cheeseburgers tha
were just to die for! Haha Then we spent the rest of the evening driving around
letting Elder Little say goodbye to people which was good. But we had to drive
down to Point Fortin again to pick up the Elders down there because they were
both getting transfered out and when we reached home I got an interesting phone
call from the Asisstants telling me that I wouldn't be picking up Elder Cox at
the office but that I would be picking up Elder Parker from the office who was
supposed to be a zone leader and training in Arima but wasn't aloud to drive
anymore because his work permit expired! So Today I am with Elder Parker and
will be until his work permit comes through. The Asisstants have told us that
they would like to have Elder Parker up in Arima and Elder Cox down here with
me, so as soon as that goes through I get Elder Cox ! Haha kind of crazy, but
should be fun!
On
Wednesday we woke up and headed up to Couva to meet some missionaries and to
drop other missionaries off but their car wouldn't start in Chaguanas so we had
to drive to Chaguanas and drop people off there instead and it was just a huge
mess! Then when we finally got to Valsayn I had a hard goodbye to say as I left
Elder little at the mission home. Elder Little and I had a great transfer and I
was sad to see him go! But I know I'll see him again soon! Then Elder Parker
and I had a LONG drive back down to Point Fortin to drop off the elders there
and didn't get back until like 6 at night and so we saw a couple people and
headed home.
Thursday
we had weekly planning and had some sweet appointments. We got to see some
investigators that aren't really progressing much which is kind of sad but we
were able to go to a anniversary service thing for a members husband who just
passed away which was kind of weird but we got fed well...
On
Friday we had a crap load of lessons and saw plenty members. We really want to
work on member work here in San Fernando because our previous efforts to get
members on our own have been not really working for us... haha
On
Saturday we had to hustle through some lessons in the afternoon because we had
a zone leader skype training at 3 and about a half hour before it started where
we were going to skype cancelled on us and so we had to scramble to find
somewhere to skype and got to call some members all over the place and finally
found somewhere and got to the meeting just before it started. But
unfortunately because of the meeting we didn't get to start our fast until like
5 o'clock which was kind of a bummer... But we did have a sweet lesson with a
guy named Marcus who was a referral from a member up in Couva that turned out
to be pretty solid! It was a super cool lesson!
On
Sunday we had pretty average church but there was some members that came out
from Rio Claro which is like almost a two hour drive away and asked us to go
visit them so we get to head out there on Friday! But we had some lessons and
ended our fast and then headed out to see some members in a place called
Gasparillo that went super well! Then we got invited to the senior couples for
some popcorn to grab on our way in which was way nice of them!
It was
a crazy little week but it went by quick! I'm sad I'm not with Elder Cox but it
should be good to serve with Elder Parker!
One
Love!
Elder
