Hi Everyone!
Well this week is finally over!
Being a zone leader in the islands not only means that you have all the normal
ZL responsibilities but also you have to do all the senior couple
responsibilities for the island as well! It’s a lot of work and on top of that
it was transfer week and so we had missionaries flying in and out and I had to
get the car from the sisters which they don't like to share even for missionary
stuff like that and all in all it was a tough week!
But we were able to get some normal
missionary work done as well and we had a great lesson with the Chacon family!
The husband was working late so we didn't get to start the lesson until like
8:50 because they wanted to wait for him and he had read the chapter out of the
Book of Mormon and he said that he got his answer as well! It was a super great
lesson and also super quick because we had a long bike ride home and they had a
Christmas party that Saturday so we will hopefully get to meet with them this
week!
Also this week we had the absolute
strangest branch Christmas party I have ever been to.....It was a dinner but
they made us sing like 5 songs with the sisters and then they had a weird skit
by some of the members and then a guy who looks like a 1970 casino performer
shows up and starts singing these crazy Spanish songs while we go and serve the
people their food, all in the chapel! It was pretty strange but the food was
delicious so it’s all good.
As for Christmas, my packages are
in Curacao but E walker and I have a ZL meeting in Trinidad on Jan 8 so he is
going to bring them to the meeting so I will have a late Christmas! Also Aruba
is becoming really strict on immigration and so long story short after Dec 27th
I am either going to Curacao or Trinidad until Jan 1st, so that will be
exciting! Lots of flying! As for the most important thing, We are planning on
skyping at 3 or 3:30ish ARUBA TIME. Wooo.
I almost forgot to tell you, I gave
my first blessing in Papiamento yesterday!!!!!!! mi ta prepara semper :)
See you on Friday!!
Love,
Elder Harsh
