Working Hard

Amigos y Familia,

This was a crazy busy week for me with my new assignment as a zone leader.  But easily one of my favorites of the mission.  So you can all get an idea, here is an outline of my past week:

• Tuesday:  Took the bus from Chilan to my new area in Talcahuano (Cruz del Sur).  Got there in time for lunch then we made plans for the zone and worked in the street for like 2 hours.  
• Wednesday:  Had meetings with my new zone all morning then worked a normal afternoon and evening schedule. 
• Thursday:  Meetings/trainings all day at the Mission Offices in downtown Concepcion.
• Friday:  Consejo de Lideres (Leadership council) all day in the Mission Offices in downtown Concepcion.
• Saturday:  Had a zone activity in Talcahuano centro until lunch, worked a normal afternoon and evening schedule.
• Sunday:  Church meetings in the morning with 2 new investigators, then  after lunch spent the afternoon interviewing investigators in different areas of my zone  (Las Salinas, San Vicente, and Idependencia).  

I would say we worked about 15-20 hours in total in our sector where before I would typically have worked about 60 hours a week in my area.  Huge change but I love it.  There is no better feeling than working until the absolute last second of the day then collapsing into bed at 11pm and up at 7am to do it again.  All of my heart, might, mind, and strength in the work.  I couldn't be happier.

With love,

Elder Vincent
