Week 68: Challenges

This week has been good! We finished up another month, its always a little crazy at the end of the month cuz we are running everywhere trying to get everyone baptized and interviews and work visits and stuff! But we finished November pretty bad. :/ Idk what's going on with the zone rn....well actually the whole mission, the numbers were pretty bad. Guess we just had a bad month. But we are excited for December. We're going in with lots of potential and with new ideas so that we fix what went bad!

My new area has a lot of new challenges, I kinda feel like God is putting me to the test to see if I can take it and still accomplish what He wants me to accomplish. I love being a missionary and that makes the time fly by!

Goood grubbin! Shrimp ceviche.

Found a skateboard in a members house while waiting for lunch!

A p-day well spent! The Forehand Hero hasn't lost his touch.

Week 67: Just a lil update!

Hey Everyone!

Just your pal Elder Hale with a little update on thngs down here in the M.P.L.N.!

-its getting warmer and the farmers tan is getting stronger

-I eat more and more but get skinnier and skinnier...I hope there are no worms in my tummy #peruproblems

-my comp and I are getting along great, it was nice to get a new one!

-the area is getting a lot better!! We are setting baptismal dates for December!

-we have interviews and zone conf coming up so we are stressed and busy preparing trainings n stuff

- I'm LOVING the mission still, haha

Also, we had Christians baptism on Saturday and man he is a champ! He is a member's boyfriend and he's only been to church like 5 times but it seems like he's been attending for years and he knows more of the ward than my companion, hahah. He is the boss of a food administration business and he is going to college so he's a busy guy but he is super dedicated to the church! The bishopric is already thinking of calling him as the young single adults counselor. He was super ready to listen to the gospel and the Lord definitely prepared his heart! 

Well...have a good week and read the Book of Mormon everyday!!!

Week 66: New Companion

*Jarett didn't send a group letter today, so here is an excerpt from my letter:

We had a good p-day. We ate Chinese and it was delishhhhhhh. I ate pollo w/pineapple, won tons, and coke with lime!! I found root beer today too while shopping #YEEEET. I saw a cool remote control car too...I was thinkin of buying it but wasn't sure its its against the rules, hahaha. My new comp is a good fella! He's from Arequipa Peru! He's dying (meaning he only has 2 months left). He's a lot more obedient than my old comp. We get along better too!
