Hey Momma,This week was alright. We didnt baptize yet because Ricardo and Diana arent married, but they are getting there. Ricardo is super ready. We had 12 baptisms in the zone which was super awesome. We havent been in our area hardly at all becuase we have been going all over the place going to baptisms and doing interviews. Which is frustrating because we are way down on our goals for the month. Yesterday we had a meeting with all the bishops and ward mission leaders and the stake presidency in Tepic because nobody is working and the stake is falling, the wards all have like 40-60 in attendance, which is terrible for a stake, but the leaders are all dumb and spent there time in the meeting saying stupid things and i felt like we just wasted a lot of time preparing for it and traveling and we didnt accomplish anything. "what do you need from the missionaries?" "um i think we need visiting teachers" or "um i think the missionaries are not too bad" or "i think our ward would progress if the missionaries told me when they left the area to work in the other ward they are assigned" you are the bishop, not their mom. Nayarit is smaller but the population comparison is like all of reno compared to the fallon stake, but fallon has 16 missionaries and all of reno has 8, (tepic has 8 and santiago ixcuintla has 16) and so they just spent the whole meeting complaining about how they need missionaries and its not fair, and i told them if they want missionaries they need to support the missionaries they have. they were kinda ticked at me i think. They have 4 companionships for 7 barrios. We just wasted so much time on those dufuses, we shouldve stayed in tuxpan and worked. The Rainy season starts in like...may, but it starts hard in like july and ends in september. funny things this week...when people yell at us elder velazquez always just smiles and says thank you so that is funny sometimes. thats about all this week momma. let me know how everyone is doing
