Well this week has been pretty great! Speaking and learning Spanish still one step at a time! id like to think that my Spanish is getting a lot better. i can definitely speak it a lot better, and i have amble opportunities to, because like, i do my work in Northern mexico. No, i dont actually serve there, but like everywhere Elder Patterson and i go, there is not one White, Black, or Asian in sight. Its kinda cool when you think about it, i was kinda worried that i wouldn't speak a lot of Spanish out here, i was so wrong haha!
We kinda had a cool experience this week. while i was in the bathroom, my companion got a call from an old contact that he and Another elder had run into 2 months ago. He asked for us to come visit his mother in the hospital, because shes very sick with cancer, and she had asked him to call us so that we could come and pray and share a pensamiento espiritual (spiritual thought) with her.
So when we got there, we almost couldn't get up to her. Even tho we are Clergy( kinda weird to think of myself like that) she shares a room with another woman, and there was too many people up there at that time. But we did finally get up there, and we shared Alma 7:11. This scripture is about Christ, and how he suffered all for not only the sins of every person that lived, lives or will live on this earth, but he also suffered for every pain, trial, affliction that we would experience in this life. She loved it. We Then gave her a Blessing, and the whole experience was just really cool. being a missionary is one of the greatest experiences because you have the opportunity to bring joy into others lives.
Well, we also had the Ward Trunk o Treat this last Friday! it was pretty fun! We had 3 of our investigators come, and i think they enjoyed it, or at least i hope! Sometimes things can get boring haha... But there were a a lot of awesome Costumes! But i think i borrowed the best one!
If you think that im not still a goofball, you are sadly mistaken! Also idk how Appropriate it was to have that on, but at least i still had my tag on it LOL.
Also, we had Elder Natress of the Seventy preside at our Stake Conference this last sunday! I even got to met him :) . However, no pics, because i guess thats looked down upon, ok ok :( . He gave really great talks, both at the Adult session and then the general session. One thing that is for certain, if you are a general authority, you are a great story teller, and boy did he have good ones, and tied it in so well with his message.
Well thats all for now, Below are the rest of the pics from the Trunk o Treat.
Love ya all,
Elder Bacon, i mean Bailey
