Subject: Week 2

Hey everyone! Week 2 in the MTC.
Pretty average week. Every day is pretty much the same right now so the food is the most exciting thing. 
I don't have a pick of anything but all the meals pretty much consist of 2 types of rices, 2 kinds of meat, and a bowl of beans to poor over the top. And other meals are weird contraptions of foods that they try to make american, but have no idea how so we get these really random foods for breakfast every once in a while. Then on tuesdays we have this soup stew stuff thats called San Cocho, which is just a bunch of random animals, usually chicken, beef, and pork, chopped up and thrown into a soup. When I was eating is, I found part of a vertebrae in my soup, and I had no idea what it was from since it was too small to be a pig or a cow. So we asked around and one of the teachers said it might be cat. 
Cat Stew Everyone! pretty exciting stuff.
The Sundays here is the best day of the week. We have sacrament meeting in the building with the other missionaries. We also get to watch these really awesome Devotionals that can only be shown in the MTCs. We watched one with Elder Bednar, and hes super awesome. I would go into more detail but i have no time on the computer so sorry about that.
The Church is true, and la Profeta y los Apostles are true messengers from Christ!

May 29, 2017 Hey Everyone! Not a whole lot went on this week because of transfers, but its been pretty fun adjusting to this new area. We played baseball with a bunch of kids before we left Gonzalo. Its was pretty sad leaving, but NEW AREA My new companion´s name is Elder Chicom, and he's from Panama and doesn´t speak any English, so  Spanish here I come!  The Bavaro area is huge, we cover Punta Cana, Bavaro, and a couple of other cities nearby. We live in an apartment complex in Bavaro, and its super nice. Definitely a big change from living in Gonzalo. I'll attach a pic of my new ¨¨Back yard¨¨.Also, Americans attend church here all the time, so that will be a little weird. I also got to go on an intercambio with Elder  Hallett in La Ramona. Cool town and an awesome guy. The church is true and the Book of Mormon is true! El der Budge

Noche Blanca

Image
May 1, 2017 A pretty good week.  We traveled to Sabana Grande de Boya for a Noche Blanca last night with our zone and 15 people were baptized. Elder Portillo and I baptized 2 people, Nicolas and Luzmaria. Nicolas read Jesus's invitation in Matthew 27:19-20 and is preparing to leave on a mission in a year, so we're super stoked about that.  We went through China Town Santo Domingo and that was weird. I would have never thought of experiencing Asians speaking Spanish, but its real. We also stopped by a shoe place where I bought a pair of Echos, which are 150 bucks in the states, for 30 dollars.  God is our loving heavenly Father, and he loves us! The Church is true!

Staying the Jungle

April 10, 2017 Hey everyone! Pretty awesome week. We baptized a little girl named Yurami on Sunday and shes amazing! She's 9ish years old and has been coming to church by herself for years. Us and other missionaries have been trying to get her baptized for the past year, but her dad never gave her permission. He finally gave it!. Ill attach pictures if this computer lets me. Elder Lopez and I finished the transfer with 6 Baptisms. Pretty great. On Tuesday I'm getting a different companion from Honduras. I've heard he doesn't speak very much English so it should be interesting! Lately I've been studying the New Testament alongside with Jesus the Christ and I've learned a lot more about the Ministry of Christ from that.  Jesus is our Savior, The Church is true, and Thomas S. Monson is Gods prophet on the earth! Elder Budge   Wow thats' awesome news with Westbrook! the only thing that might hinder him from getting MVP  is...
