Tuesday, March 28th - Monday, April 3rd

So I don´t have much more time so I´ll try to write fast. So we started out this week like normal. Just working in my area and trying to help the people out. And that night I got a message that I had the message for our District in the morning about Repentance. So I prepared my talk/pratice and that´s when Wednesday comes in. So I did the talk and used some scriptures very...well bold. Like if we don´t repent we will suffer even as christ suffered. And he was perfect, imagine how hard it will be for us. And then the practice was everyone had a paper with a specific sin and we taught the people (we took turns being missionaries and investagators.) it went well.

Thursday. We went to Palermo again. and well it didn´t go the best, but talking with a 92 year old man who is like, "Yeah I´m going to hell. but hey I´ll be able to rule over satan like in my dream...."

 

Friday. Well it started out we were at the house of some members and she said she is going to sell some turtle shells, so we were like we wanna see. So I arranged them into turtle shell armour. And then while walking down the road some random cars stopped and said, "Hey we are Mormons from Utah and have a son on a mission." They gave us each 500 cordobas (like 16.66 US dollars each but feels like 100 dollars here) and then drove off. Tender mercy there. So all of you, if you see the missionaries treat them. It makes their days!

Saturday it started off we had a duck lunch. Like we ate duck with some members, then headed to General Conference but only got to watch like the ending 20 minutes of the second session, but we stayed for Saturday, and between those sessions we went to the store, and I saw a 2 for 1 deal. So I got 2 cakes for 255 cordobas. And like that was dang level cheap. So I was watching conference in English for the Priesthood session with the other Elders from the states, and we were chowing down on some cake! Man it was the best cake we had ever had here all of us. Since the last bus to our area left at 6 in the night. We slept with the ZLS and went to our area at like 6AM

 

Sunday we all went to watch the first session, went back for lunch then back again for the second session. We only made it for like the last 20 minutes again, but it was nice. And then went back to our area. And here I am now writing you all for Monday.

Love you all. Keep up being great.

Also if you were wondering my favorite talk was by Ronald A Rasband, about listening to the impressions of the holy ghost. You all should look it up if you don´t remember it. It´s applicable to both missionary work and everyday life.

Love, Elder Vogt
