This
week after the district meeting we had a work visit with the elders
from Pucala. Work visits are always different, because after time
adjusting to a comp and how they teach, they switch it up to see what
else we can do to improve the area. I stayed in La Cria and Elder
Darrington went over to Pucala. I stayed with Elder Wilson our district
leader. To start the change meeting we stayed after the district meeting
and he did a baptismal interview. It was fun because I had the
opportunity to talk and meet with the elders from Patapo. Me being
bored, started just sweeping the church and talking to them at the same
time. It was a lot of fun.. Their investigator got baptized too so that
is always good. Afterwards we returned and ate. It was really funny
because Elder Wilson ate a bunch of food... I guess he just loves to
eat.
The things I learned from Elder Wilson
were that we always need to be contacting or introducing ourselves to
people, and to just invite everyone to baptism. The guy has 20 months
in the mission and you can tell he is getting antsy to come home, but the
guy works super hard so that is a great combination.
It was nice getting back with my companion though... It is just weird to be separated... A whole Yin yang thing...
Guillermo
went to Lima and the cool thing is that he called us to see if we
wanted anything. He is such a cool guy. I just had him pick up a hard
cover book of Mormon in English. Now I am going through and marking it
up... It just feels good to be able to start with a clean slate and just
devour the good word of God. The other cool thing was it only costed a
dollar... What a great price for something that is priceless and life
changing.
Scriptures That had an impact on my life and week
Isaiah 41:10
John 14 : 27
2 Timothy 1 7-9
And basically 3 Nephi 12
Read them... They will bring peace into your lives. I promise you.
The
area is going well... The members are bringing people to church, which
is amazing.. All, I can say is God knows how to do his work.
Happy Halloween.... I am so glad I only miss one halloween, because in Peru they do not do anything....
I love you all
Elder Joshua Leo Mecham
.........Send my love to all... I mean all the ward.. the fam... the neighbors...
