Final Round (May 9, 2016)

I was recently informed about the transfers for these next six weeks, and I'll be staying with Elder Mumford here in Ca'aguazu. Elder Dyer from Vegas and Elder Franchini from Argentina (the Zone Leaders will also be staying with us. I was also informed that Elder McDermott is going to be ending his mission in Paraguarì! He had been asking for like forever to go back there, and it'll be great to hear how he's doing and about the branch. I'm happy to be here in Ca'aguazu, and I know it's where Heavenly Father needs me right now. I'm very excited for these last six weeks. It's a one-shot type deal so I'm making it count!

Yesterday my convert Carlos Chavez gave his first talk in sacrament meeting. It was about the gifts of the spirit, and it was all great until he talked about the time last week that he went and "said a prayer by the laying on of hands" to a small child! We swiftly retaught him about the division between the lesser and greater priesthoods. A funny experience, but an innocent mistake. He has great faith, and the girl actually did get better. I'm sure he'll be an awesome Melchezidek Priesthood holder. He's going to be baptizing his 8 year old son this saturday as well. He got interviewed already and everything. His name is Carlitos and he's my friend. I'm very proud of them. There's another little kid named Christian, (also my friend and aso 8 years old) who is way crazy and barely sits still. He loves movies and quoting stuff, and it reminds me a little bit of me when I was little. We're trying to teach him how to read the book of mormon but gosh dang he can't keep still! Super smart. When describing worthiness in the priesthood, he said

"it's like... they give you a machinegun, but they don't give you bullets until you know how to use the gun!"

So he's pretty cool.

We've also got another Elder in the District with Dengue. What a pain! It's winter time but somehow those mosquitos got him. His name is Elder Brownlee, and he's from California. His companion, Elder Morales, also from California, and I, went on splits on friday. It was a good time, and as always a nice time to help out newer missionaries. He gave me a wide-eyed "what advice do you have for my mission?" It's always fun to make new friends and pretend that I know anything about missionary work. Really, it's a pleasure to serve. I think serving in Ă‘emby for such a long time helped me to realize that no matter where we are or how we serve, we should always consider the Lord's work of the highest importance. 

It was also cool to see my family yesterday in Skype. Love you, mom!
Also big thanks to Dan, Ann, Fiona, Meagan, Rhys, Teague, Brigid and Tara for the package they sent. One of my favorite quotes is from Meagan which reads

"I hope you had a fun time being a missionary!"

Love you all!

Elder Wilson
