Week 1 With My New Brother

¡Que Xopa! 



This week was super solid. My new comp, Elder Budge, is a stud and he just wants to work so you already know I am super happy. We have a ton in common, it's crazy, so I am stoked for this transfer with him. He's already one of my best friends!



We focused heavily on the members this week to get to know them more. We had a couple lessons with members that were super successful- 2 with priests who are preparing to serve a mission! Their names are Harold and Demetrio and they are gonna be killer missionaries. 



Alberto y Maria: We have had 2 lessons with them this week after we had our first with them on Sunday. We taught the Restoration and also the importance of marriage. They are not married but they want to get married and baptized! So right now, thats our project. We gotta figure out how to get people married here in Panama. With your prayers and the help of the members in our branch, we can get it done! They also came to church yesterday so that was the biggest miracle. 



We have a baptism this week for Ingrid Sanchez because she never recieved the confirmation because of the Pandemic so she has to get baptized again. She is the older sister of Edilma. 



I don't have a whole lot of time but I just want to say how grateful I am to be a missionary during this time. This is the Lords work and it is the greatest work that there will ever be. Lets put on our armor and help Gods children come unto Christ. We will recieve blesings for it.

Panamá Beats The US

Panamá beat the US in soccer, so everyone was going crazy—partying and drinking. We had a bunch of contacts with hombres borrachos in the streets. You know when a man's drunk when they start speaking to us in English, haha. Despite all the hombres borrachos and unmarried couples that we are teaching, the work is moving forward, and many miracles are happening here in Panamá! Elder Martínez and I have been working a ton with recent converts and part-member families. Doing so, we have seen lots of success. The Lord is certainly providing, and we are excited to see the fruits of our labors as we continue to work diligently in His Vineyard. Angel and Daniel, who are the younger brothers of Leo (who is now reactivating), came to church yesterday. They are set for baptism on the 29th of July. Here's a quote that I really like from a devotional I listened to from Elder and Sister Oaks: "Heavenly Father is more interested in our growth as a Disciple of Jesus Christ than He is in o...

Merry Christmas From San Blas

Merry Christmas and Happy New year! I hope you are all enjoying this special and joyous time with your loved ones.      This season is by far my favorite time of year especially as a missionary. It's truly amazing being able to help others feel the Christmas spirit and remind them what it is all about- the birth, life, and atonement of our Savior, Jesus Christ.      About a week and a half ago, I received a call that I was being transferred. After the most incredible 7 months in David my time came to an end. It was hard to say goodbye to my dear friends but I'm looking forward to having new marvelous experiences in a new place. I will now be serving in the San Blas islands learning a new indigenous language called "Dulegaya."      Before coming out, the new San Blas elders and I spent a couple days preparing by buying food, our sandals, and our hammocks! And we also had a multi-zone Christmas Conference! The elders of Guna Yala(San Blas) sang...
