Its been a week, it has not felt like a week. I feel like
the time in my mission is sand slipping through my fingers. Right now we plenty
of people to teach but not enough time to teach all of them! We have started to
work a little bit more with our Ward council but its a bit hard when your ward
mission leader tries to through you under the bus when he has not completed an
assignment... It caught me off gaurd, I was suprised and a little offended but
we cannot hold grudges. We have been working more with the less actives and
part member families and I found that a huge barrier between us and the
investigators was a complete lack of relationship. We need to teach and know
the doctrine but we also need to listen to those we teach. Elder Guzman has
helped me to learn to have patience with our investigators and Less actives. It
is amazing to see how much love he has for the people of moquegua. Elder Guzman
is a very different companion than Elder Bonilla. I knew more about Elder
Guzman in the first few days than I knew about Elder Bonilla in the whole time
we were companions. I feel really guilty because I never really knew my
companion and its deffinately my fault but I feel like Elder Guzman is my
brother! We have been sharing a mormon message about how we can find Jesus christ
in our lives no matter what the moment is. I have definately been looking much
harder for what my heavenly father wants me to learn from times of difficulties
and hardships. Thank you for your time and your advice!
Love Elder Tanner
