Fuerzas Espirituales-Loja Week Sixty Three

Well this has been an interesting week to say the least and we have had some pretty awesome experiences in the matter of one week. Also shoutout to my brother who will be getting married to Allison. Congrats to them. 

Trip to Zamora

Like I have said before here in the zone we have a sector that is 2 hours away from the zone. There are 2 missionaries there. They were having some problems and needed a little help out there so on Wednesday we headed out there to help them out. We did an interchange with them with the idea to help them get along better and have more success. Most people are happy when they have success. We went got to Zamora it was absolutely dumbing raining there. We showed up without umbrellas or rain jackets so we just took off running to the missionaries house. Needless to say we showed up very wet. All day I walked in the rain and was just super cold the whole day. The good thing was we enjoyed a day of a lot of sucess. The missionaries were happy and so were we.

New People

Basically this week we have put in a lot of effort in finding new people to teach and to help change there lives. We continue to work with what we have but have also put the emphasis on finding more. There is no such thing as having too much sucess in the mission. Or a missionary will never complain for ever having to many people to teach. We find a guy who just recently got back from machala and had talked with the missionaries there. The missionaries were teaching him there and we are going to continue. He used to be a pastor so it should be pretty interesting what goes on. We also have been teaching a brother and sister from a small city called Saraguro. Everything is going good with them and hopefully in the coming week baptismal pictures will be sent.

Tshirts

Well in the next couple weeks we will be sending off an Elder from the zone.So in honor for his goodbye we made some pretty cool shirts. I will send some pictures and hopefully you will realize how cool they are.

Helaman 11:28  And it came to pass that it was expedient that there
should be a stop put to this work of destruction, therefore they sent and army of strong men
into the wilderness and upon the mountains to search out this band of robbers, and to destroy them.

Being silly!

Thanks for all the love and support. President is coming this week to Loja it should be awesome.
