This week has been good! I have never worked harder in my whole life. Between the office and the 2 wards we´ve got I´ve never been going 100% 24/7 like I have now and I love it! Even though sometimes I choose sleep over eating because we don´t do much of either, and even though we do a thousand things every day. Every day and every moment I feel the joy that Jesus Christ brings me. I feel happy and excited and energized and I am always able to feel the company of the Spirit with me. I love that, no matter the chaos, we can always feel that presence divine.
Elder Zac Jerman accepted a call to serve as a full time missionary in the Uruguay, Montevideo Mission. He spent 5 weeks at the Mexico MTC (CCM) learning Spanish and then will spend the rest of the 2 years serving and teaching the people in Uruguay. UPDATE - Covid 19 brought him home for 5 weeks then he was reassigned to the Georgia, Atlanta North Mission. He served in Lilburn, Georgia for 8 months then got to fly back to Uruguay in December. WOW! "It's A Great Day, in Uruguay"!

Like I said last week it´s not the area it´s the missionary, yeehaw.
So I wanted to share something that I thought of this week. I thought about how when I would go to the grocery store with my mom, she would often times buy me an ice cream cone. The total cost of the groceries was a lot more than the little cone, so she was always willing to use some spare change to get a cone. Another reason was that we were already in the store, and we didn´t buy ice cream cones in other moments so it was a fun treat seeing that we were already in the store. I was thinking about that, and I thought about the mission. Seeing that I am already out here, I might as well buy a little ice cream cone. Seeing that I am already paying a lot, I might as well buy a little ice cream cone. For me, the little ice cream is searching out any little thing I can change to make myself a more obedient missionary, or a happier missionary. Seeing that I´m out here already, already paying a lot for the groceries, it´s a treat to be able to find the little things to change and improve to be able to take advantage of all the blessings I receive. :) Let´s all buy ice cream.
Examples aside I really like ice cream I would like to go get some with all of you after the mission but I won´t be able to pay for everyone sorry.
Farewell.
Love, Elder Jerman
Our dear friend Walter got baptized!! I felt such happy when he was expressing to me the feelings he was feeling after his baptism. Baptism cleanses us!!
