Week 94 - Q&A
Q&A about Elder Baller's new (and last) area and companion. Enjoy!
NEW AREA - LAS COLINAS
1. Where is your new area compared to La Travesia?
It is still in the city (Tegucigalpa), but on the other side.
2. Who, if anyone, in your area have you served with before in your mission?
In the zone, I was with Elder Mataipule in Choluteca but other than him no one.
3. What are the main differences between this and La Travesia, as far as neighborhoods go?
There are a lot of rich people in Las Colinas. Everyone is rich. Everyone.
4. Do you still get fed by members? How often?
Pretty often. When we need dinner the members usually help, we usually end up doing lunches on our own.
5. How many people come to church in your new area?
About 80

WEEK 94 - Update
This week was good.
Tuesday
We contacted for a little while, it is super hard contacting in this new area, the people don't want to listen to us. We went and visit a member family. We went and visited another couple that are members. We visited Roxana, she is an investigator that we are working with.
Wednesday
It rained. A lot. We met a few more members... well, I did anyway. Pretty normal day.
Thursday
We went and visited a member and ended up taking him to do some visits with us. He knows a lot of doctrine so it is cool to talk to him. We went to visit a family we are teaching, they are kind of positive but have some doubts.
Friday
We had our district meeting. It was another very normal day.
Saturday
We visited some other members and we went to visit a member lady and read a chapter of the Book of Mormon with her. Very cool.
Sunday
We went to church, Roxana went with us. We are going to work with her for baptism.
Monday
We had zone conference, it was a good meeting. I ended up giving my last testimony since it will be my last zone conference.
Have a great week!
