Hey it's the old friendly neighborhood
Elder, Elder Hironaka! So this week has been a little bit stressful to say the
least. Sleep just is not happening in this calling.
So, to be quick because I still have a lot
to do today, changes were crazy as always! My partner in crime Elder Kliener is
back the field as a zone leader in Juigalpa. This is the zone that has
Bluefields in it. It was a fun short time we had together as APs.
My new companion is Elder Alcerro! He is a
little bit younger missionary in the field, but has been doing an awesome job.
He is from Honduras. He is a great
example to me because he takes advantage of every opportunity he has, for
example he has learned English in his mission from his American companions and
because he is now with me he is going to learn how to drive. I'm very excited
to see what we do together and how much success we can have.
This week as we were able to have 2 baptisms
in our area! Jancie and Lola were baptized. They were so excited to be baptized
because they have been preparing for a long time. We are hoping to have 2 more
baptisms this next week.
Some other events that took place this past week
were going to the airport to drop of the missionaries who were going home. This
group was an amazing group of missionaries. It included Elder Collado who was
the AP for a year and who motivated the mission. It was sad to see him leave.
Elder Morales another great missionary went home as well. He was my companion
for a change in Masaya when I went back there to be a Zone Leader. He was full
of great teachings and the people looked to him for guidance. I know many will
miss him. Elder Agustin another great friend and companion I had in Las
Palmas went home too. I'll never forget
the many great and fun experiences we all had together.
So this week is going to be awesome again
because we have a 70 coming on Monday to speak with us. I'm a little nervous (but
not too much), because I feel he might call on me to do something or practice
in front of the two missions here in Nicaragua. Just pray that everything goes
well! The day after we will give a training lesson to the greenies who have
been here for 7 weeks. This training is fun and we’ll do most of the teaching
in it. The next day we need to get ready for the zone leaders meeting. Yes, I
have a lot to do in this next couple of days!!
