This
week was super awesome! Elder Sandoval and I as well as the Hermana
Ricconi and Hurd worked super hard as a district and were super excited
to see what were going to do in December. As a district we were able to
find 25 new investigadores this week and many of them have a lot of
potential! We are super excited to see what happens in December.
The
highlight of this week was definitely my work visit with Elder Buckner,
one of my zone leaders, on Thanksgiving and going to the temple on
Friday. We've got a rule that one of the zone leaders should always be
in the zone, so Elder Buckner invited me to go to the temple with him to
help out the sisters that work in the family history center to bring a
group of converts from our stake to the temple to do baptisms for the
dead. The Lima temple is super pretty! It is the second time I have been able
to go on my mission and it is amazing. It's in a really nice part of Lima
(La Molina) and it's a lot more peaceful. Before my mission I didn't
notice how strong the Spirit is in the temple because there are so many in
Utah and I could go a lot, but this time it was way different. The
Spirit there really impacted us and I was able to understand a lot
better my call as a missionary. If my converts don't get to the temple,
they are not getting anywhere.
Also,
while I was in the temple, I ran into some ex-missionaries from the Lima
North mission that finished with Elder Pauro, my trainer. As I was
talking with them, they told me that he was getting married that same
day! It is crazy how time goes by so fast in the mission.
Well, I would send you all a bunch of pictures but this computer is a little strange, so next week I'll send a bunch!
Con mucho amor,
Elder Potter
