Glad you could get my letter and glad that everyone had a great halloween! We had a pretty good halloween here too, although it is not anything like the U.S!

This week was good, but we didn´t meet up with our goal of investigators attending church. We only had 2 people that went and the goal was 10 people attending.. Whoops. We need to do something different to get people to come to church. I will hurry and list a couple highlights of my week now:

-Halloween was cool but I miss all the candy from my country! That night we did an activity that turned out great. We went to a member´s house and they invited 4 people that were new investigators for us! Member involvement is always the best way to find great investigators.
On Halloween all of Colombia were going nuts! Everyone is in the streets with costumes and people walk around and spray this silly string stuff at you!

-On Friday we got to do something cool: the transfers are this next week and some new missionaries were arriving to the mission. President Prince has a conference this week, so he had the new missionaries come a couple days early so he could welcome them and interview them. They were just kinda hanging out during the night so we got a call asking if the new missionaries could come teach with us! We are only like 10 minutes away from the offices, so the assistants had us go pick them up to teach with us. It was just so cool to see missionaries that were just arriving with exactly 10 days in the mission! You could see that they were just so excited to serve and that didn´t have any idea of what they were doing, but they were excited to get out there and do whatever the Lord commanded them! We played a little prank on them at first and told them that Nasly, our convert was a Jehovahs witness and would listen to us. She was having them teach her for a second and was being super hard! After we told them we were just joking, and actually had them teach Nasly´s mom which is actually our investigators! They of course thought we would be joking with her too, but they taught her like a real investigator and it was funny, but super cool to see them teach right out of the MTC! When they found out that she was a real investigator they were so proud of themselves for teaching their first real lesson in the field! Elder Jolley in my zone is going to be training one of them, so that is exciting for him. 

-Well I guess the biggest news of this week are the transfers. I didnt get transfered, but I got called as a district leader! Elder Darley, our old district leader, got transferred to another part so now I am the district leader and another missionary from Texas is coming! I am soo soo nervous and have no idea how to be a leader in the mission, but I guess I will just try my best! We are going to miss Elder Darley a lot and it will be weird without him, but that is the mission. We are going to have our first district meeting tomorrow, and I have to direct everything and I am going to have to collect all the numbers every night. I feel like I don´t have the right personality to be a leader in the mission because I don´t know how to motivate people, I don´t know how to make people listen to me to do things. Pray for me a lot in this leadership position,  I want my district to be the best district in the world! 

Well looks like I got to go here. Great to hear about the conference you had with the seventies and everything. I will have to add some spiritual thoughts for the next letter and organize my thoughts a little better for next week. Everyone have a great week!
