Concepcion

Hey Everyone,

Well this week was a little out of the norm. Beacuse we are out in the middle of nowhere, whenever we have a meeting with other missionaries we lose a lot of time travelling. So on Wednesday about midday we had to go to San Pedro for a baptismal interview. Well it can be up to a 3 hour trip so when we go we have to spend the night with them. Then on Thursday we had to go from San Pedro to Concepcion which means 2 busses and about 7 hours of travel time. So we got up and got on the bus around 9 in the morning and got to Santa Rosa (my area) around lunch time with the San Pedro Elders. We got lunch and then went to the bus station to try to get our bus for the 4 hour trip to Concepcion. We found out the bus wasnt for a couple hours so we went back to the house and got some more stuff ready becasue we would be staying in Concepcion over nigfht to get to Zone conference the next day. Well, after those couple houtrs passed and we got some things taken care of we went back to the bus station and they told us the bus just passed, 30 minutes before they told us it would. There would not be another bus until that night. So we made up some work to do and tried to be efficient with little success. Then went back to the bus station at about 7pm. Well the bus was two hours late. We didnt get to Concepcion until about midnight and we had a huge sleepover with a bunch of elders from all over becasue we are so spread out. It turned out to be fun, but was a stressful day.

Other than that we did actually manage to have some success in our own area and we are still working hard to help people come unto Christ.

Love,
Elder Seibert

P.S. Oh yeah theres a huge Virgin Mary statue in Concepcion

Hey Everyone, I hope you all had a good week. Down here in Paraguay things are going well. I am loving my new area and, and my companion Elder Castro has a ton of energy, so we are gonna kill it. It has been beyond HOT this past week, like almost 110 with humidity. But we are still out everyday trying to teach people about Jesus Christ. Maybe this will sound obvious to all of you, but I have been thinking about how important it is to share this message we have with everyone we know. The gospel of Jesus Christ and all that he did for us is so important. I am so grateful for the knowledge that I have about Jesus, about his plan for me and how I can be like him. As I try harder and harder each day to be like my Savior I can see that it is not easy. He never had it easy as long as he lived and as long as I am trying to be like him it will never get easier. I am so happy to be here in Paraguay and serving the people who live here. Love, Elder Seibert Pics: me saying goodby...
