Hello!
Now this week, was pretty average. We are fighting hard
against the chronic disease of inactivity in the church. Neither of our recent
baptisms showed up to church (Ismael and Miguel). Who knows why, but it is a
trend I have seen my whole mission here. People get baptized and they
disappear. We are really going to give it our all with our most recent converts
so that that same thing doesn't happen to them! That would be the explanation of
why there are 500 members in Santa Rosa de Lima, but only 30-50 attend weekly.
By the way, its good to see Lokey is still alive, I was
wondering if he was still around, how old it he? I imagined that he would die
of old age during my mission. what a trooper!
Also this week are changes, the fact that I just got here
means that I probably will not have changes. But my companion will probably be
sent to a new area. But, who knows?
Seriously dad? A car for more than half of your mission? Lucky. Was that for leadership positions, or just for having a huge area and
having to travel a lot? When I was in the office we traveled in bus daily
about 1.5 - 2 hours. We begged and begged for a car, but we never got it
because a couple years ago the office secretaries totaled one they had. Two
changes after I left the office, President gave the office missionaries a
Toyota Hilux pickup. Talk about bad luck huh? That would have been cool.
Well time is up, and I must be going! Have an awesome week
family!
Elder Vaughan
PS: Jesse wants me to do a wilderness survival thing with
him when I get back, sounds cool. but I don't know If I will be able to because
I don't know how my schedule will be.... I don't know haha peace!
