Week 21 La Colonia Kenedy

We shared with Chase that during an amazing lightning storm our home was hit.  It was quite an experience but after a lot of repairs all is well.  On top of lightning Chases email was a day late due to the mission conference they had......rookie missionary parents get worried if even an email is late.

Family and Mom,
Wow I can´t believe a lightning storm hit the house!! I have never experienced that before and that would have been cool to experience. That stinks that everything crashed in the house and you have to fix everything again lol I might know those two kids that played club volleyball because their names sound familiar. My last year of club volleyball was super fun and I learned a lot playing. Thats exciting for Josey to play first base and I am suprised that she is not afraid of the ball lol. Well I hope you guys are all safe and sound at home. 
 
Well this week was hard and we did a lot of walking and talking to people. We have some good investigators but we are struggling with finding new ones. No one seems to be interested at all listening to the message. I realized that we are working to much in the La Kennedy and we need to work in the other two areas we have. That is we work in Bella Oriente and Villa Nueva. So hopefully this week we can focus more on these areas and find some new investigators. Well  this week we have been teaching these really positive joven his name is Hector Vasquez and he reads everything that we give him and he always has questions for us to answer. He is really smart and has grown up in a rough life. Both of his parents were killed a long time ago by some gangs and he doesnt know why, but he has an older brother who is a member and now we are going to baptize him for sure. This coming saturday we are going to baptized Grecia because she should have permission from her parents to be baptized. The other investigators that we have are not as positive, but we are trying to make them more positive. Well I didnt write on Monday because we have a Zone Conference with Elder Carlos H. Amado!! He was really good to hear from and loves the work. He is super nice and really funny. He is part of the Presidency of the Central America area. We learned a lot from him and we were there for a long time. We were at conference for 6 hours learning and asking questions. Everyone had a good time at the conference and I learned a ton. We talked about mainly how to become an effective missionary and what the church expects of us. You can tell how Elder Amado loves the work and always wants to work with missionaries. Anyways I have been feeling bad and sad because this past week was rough for the work and I need to better myself though. Especially since there is only a week and a half in the change left. So I hope to work super hard this week and improve myself. I still want to go forward even when its super rough, but I know I will find a way for sure. One good thing is my spanish is coming I can speak to people and they understand almost everything that I say. So thats a good sign lol. Also I received a letter from JJ LeMoine the other day from Finland!!! I was so excited to hear from him lol. Well nothing else really to say but hope the house gets fixed. Love you all and thanks for everything.
 
Con Amor,
Elder Hall
