First of all, I've had an absolutely killer week. I've got so many crazy stories to share.
First of all, I received a new comp! His name is Elder Rowberry, and he's from Highland, Utah. He's this awesome, super intelligent, super talented dude, who's incredibly funny, and we get along great. It's been really fun.
On the first day of the cycle, one of the elders in our district didnt have his comp still (he was with president having his last dinner because he goes home in a week) so he was with us for a day. Then two days later, his comp had a lot of really bad problems, and they had special changes. and now we're in a trio again, until this elder gets his next comp. His name is Elder Palma, and he's super sick as well. We get along so well, and we're working crazy hard.
Another companionship in our district had to change houses, so we went all the way out to their area which is in a place called Ixtapaluca, and we spent the morning carrying their stuff, helping them out, and it was really fun.
Thursday we had a bunch of meetings. We were in meetings more than half the day, which was crazy. I got so sore from sitting down so long.
On Friday we were in the mission offices doing the recent convert project, which was really fun as well, and finally, we had a normal day Saturday. It had to be one of the busiest and most stressful weeks of my mission, but one of the most rewarding. We found three new people, taught some really good lessons, and learned a lot.
So we're going to try to keep the good streak going, working hard, and giving all the service we can. Tomorrow we've got more meetings, appointments, and everything should be great!
Also, I've eaten some really fantastic hamburgers that I had to take photos of!!!! So enjoy those pics. Soon I'll have photos of my new comps and everything we're doing!!
Love,
Elder William Jacob Long
PS: please keep my extremely close friend and brother Brett Deffner in your prayers!!!!!!!!!!
