This week was sweet.
Week was super busy. I am writing you guys from Cúcuta. I can see Venezuela from where we're at. By my side is Elder Mooney one of my best friends from the MTC.
We flew into Cúcuta this morning.
Every Sunday night is sweet. We meet with President Laney and talk about everything going down, and then after, we all eat chocolate chip cookies and milk. It's cool. Always casual. Pres. Laney asked my comp and I to share something we have learned recently from the BOM.
P.S. I wrote Elder Porras this week. He and his wife Nadia INVITED ME TO EAT TACOS WITH THEM IN MEXICO. He just moved back to DF Mexico City.
We had the MTC activity. I was with Elder Allred and Elder Turner. They are both going to the Medellin mission. It was crazy being with them. I realized how behind I was on music. They kept telling me about Brockhampton. Really fun day with them though. I took them to the mountains and we found this crazy rich neighborhood with the biggest houses in Bogota.
Sidenote: We walked by the temple and the Barbosa branch (my first area) was there. SO CRAZY seeing all of them.
We have splits with all the Zone Leaders of the mission. This week we had them with the ZLs from Barranca (the hottest part of the mission). I was with Elder Hernandez. He's this dude from Peru who converted his entire family.
We had 2 multizone conferences this week. My comp and I gave a training on using time wisely. We start the training by pretending we arent prepared and then SURPRISE we are prepared.
We also had a leadershipconference and my comp and I gave a training about reaching potential. soooooo deeeeep.
My comp is crazy. Elder Vieira is 25, from Brazil, and always makes cat noises.
P.S. — Today an old lady touched my face and told me she's known me since i was born.
Also Pres. Laney's wife is super sick so #prayforHermanaLaney.
Love you guys,
Elder Blair
