Video Chat - 4th April 2022 - Teaching via Video to Mexico

It was back to a regular Monday P Day this week, so it was only 5 days since our last chat, with most of the discussion being on things happening back at home:

  • Elder Reeves' Dad has said that he'd like to get baptized. As you'd expect, his family is excited.
  • Elder Aiho has gotten engaged. He's been home from his mission for 5 months now.
  • We chatted about how Elissa is having some problems at her work, and how I was still sick from Covid.
  • They were studying the Passover in Seminary this week and so we talked about different historical versions of the Passover.
  • We chatted about General Conference that had just been held with the announcement of 17 new temples being built.

A couple of quick notes from the mission field as well:
  • The First Counselor in the Mission Presidency, Elder Raeside has been called as an Area Authority.
  • Eight missionaries are coming into the AAM next week - five from New Zealand and 3 greenies. Elder Wolff from Canberra will be one of those greenies.
Elder East also shared that they ended up having a lesson last Wednesday with somebody whom Elder Ma'a had previously taught at the start of his mission. The person in question had moved back to Mexico in the meantime however he and Elder Ma'a reconnected via Facebook. Elder Ma'a and East taught him a lesson via video last Wednesday. He has committed to be baptised and the APs have referred him to the local missionaries in Mexico to continue his gospel lessons.

Even though there wasn't much mission news, Elder East did send us a bunch of photos. 



Given the missionaries, in the above photos photo, we're assuming that this was part of the "Leavers" meeting for those missionaries who were completing their missions last transfer.






We're presuming that this is Elder East's collection of dirt from various towns he's worked in during his mission.




Later in the day Elder East also went suit shopping as he needed a new suit. He contacted us for some feedback on the suits he was trying on.
