Tierra Bella

The view from my new apartment

Hey Everyone!

I'm in my new area, Tierra Bella.  My new companion is Elder Villanueva from Lima, Peru.  He has been on his mission for 3 months and is awesome.  He is such a humble and genuine person.  It surprised me a ton.  We live with 2 other Elders in the Zone who are both from the Bay Area.  We have a strong ward, good house, solid district, etc.  I am really, really happy.  I can't complain at all.  As soon as I arrived in my new area, I dropped my bags and we went straight to work.  

I'm a little stressed out because when I got here there was only 1 investigator.  We are working really hard to change that and find new people.

We actually found 4 people who want to learn about the Gospel and 2 of them came to church on Sunday, Leyto and Fresia, and both loved it.  Leyto wants to be baptized on March 10.  He is a perfect example of how Heavenly Father prepares people for the missionaries and how, by just being out there and working, we are blessed.

We also took Layton, our Haitian investigator, to the ward activity - singing karaoke.  He had a great time.  The ward here loves activities and they're super friendly!  

I hope that everyone back home is doing great.  I really appreciate all your love and support.  

Love,
Elder Vincent
