Yup its true, im officially a dad, Im training a noob.
His name is Elder Luna, a native from the state of Puebla.
And that is why I did not write yesterday. I was in merida getting my son. Im super excited and nervous at the same time.
So Im now fatherless. Yeah, he died in his last week but really I can't blame him. He was a great missionary and now I gotta pass that on to my son.
Im grateful that my son isnt a prideful elder like Ive heard of some Mexican elders. Hes really humble and ready to learn. I just hope I can teach him.
I really have no idea how I got so much trust from presidente salinas. Im one of 2 elders from my generation thats training this transfer.
SOOOOOOOO.....
It does look like we´ll have 2 baptisms next week so thats good. But Im just not sure Im ready to be a senior companion, much less a trainer. So I´ll need stregnth and more faith.
I didnt realize until now how little new missionaries now, and in turn,how little I know, but I must press forward. The spirit is what does it all.
But wow, I just cant believe it.
Im about to teach on my own basically.....wow......
This is when I gotta be a missionary, I gotta be good now, pray for me.
Im glad the fam is doing well, and SOOOOO glad that Michelle and the baby are safe.
I hope nothing is terribly wrong with carsey, I love that kid....
Fact about Mexico for the week: Theres more spanglish here than you would think. The words "look" and "ride" exist here, oh and today I encountered a begging drunk when we were studying at the chapel....that was interesting....
Glad all is well!!!
Love,
Elder Kevin Wilde
