so a new cycle has begun and there have been some small changes! one of the other 3 canadians (Elder Atwood of Lethbridge) has joined the zone which is fun as well as a good friend from Cauayan Zone, Elder West!
I'll be killing off this companion on November 8th so another change is my companion now comes home from a long sweaty day and doesn't change his clothes at all because he wants to sleep in his proselyting clothes. name tag, tie, tucked in shirt and all! He used to wear his nametag with his garments while lounging around the house and while he sleeps but i guess for hi last 6 weeks hes stepping things up a bit! atta boy!
1 year ago on October 1 was my first baptism! Sis Erje is doing really ive heard and i re read my journal entry from that day and can still remember it very clearly. almost as sunny as any day can get! it seems life just keeps going on!
something i've wondered about alot on my mission and especially this week is the diffrence between administering and also ministering. i've felt a huge lack in my leadership abilities throughout my whole mission and what it actually means to "lead" others. there's pushing and leading. i've also wrestled with the idea of letting others govern themselves but when is it appropriate to help them more? when is too much? i've learned that ministering abilities and administering abilities are equally important and need to be in balance. even better if both are 100%. i've grown alot in my past six weeks in santiago in this category but can also see how much further i need to go. idk more of just a ramble.
heard a cheesy idea that might get you thinking but: Whats your question this year?
love you po,
Elder Kearl
