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!

 Wow thats' awesome news with Westbrook! the only thing that might hinder him from getting MVP is his temper but triple double record is a big time achievement so we'll see. and that's awesome with the work situation, should be a little easier from now on. and  The health challenge will be good.A little competition always helps so yeah.
Its been pretty good. Its going by pretty fast, It feels like I've been out in the field only for a couple of weeks so yeah. We ran low on money this last week because we have to pay for baptism and church transportation so I've been living off rice and beans so that's been fun. I feel like i drink 10 bottles of water everyday, and I'm constantly drenched in sweat haha.
Plus, can you make sure i have a little money on my personal card? 
btw whats the status with my ID?
some things that might be nice is some pics of our family, of me earlier, ect. to show people here. A few big Zip lock bags, nutrients pills my Star Wars gummies ran out and I haven't eaten a fruit in like a week, my priesthood lineage, hot sauce, some water flavoring stuff. a copy of the Living Christ and Family Proclamation (it would be cool if it was mini and laminated like my Patriarchal Blessing but if its too much work its fine). And any other food and candy that you want to send works for me! Send it whenever. I don't need the stuff too badly.

Noche Blanca

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!

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

Mission

May 15, 2017 Hey everyone,  This week was pretty good. We went to Los Limones again, but this time we weren't covered in mud so that was nice. We taught our 6 investigators who are preparing for baptism on the 20th.  I also got to talk with my family yesterday. Remember to thank your mothers! It reminds me of the army of Helaman  in Alma 53:16-23, Alma 56:44-48,56, and 57:19-21, 25-27 I forgot my camera stuff so no pics this week Elder Budge
