This week was super cool. It started out pretty normal, lots of opportunities to talk to people and help them get to know Christ better. Then it kinda hit a climax starting on Wednesday. On Wednesday night we got a text from a member saying: "BTW, PRESIDENT NELSON IS COMING TO THE ISLAND ON SEPT. 2!"
...We were obviously excited. The next day we found out he was going to be meeting in a stadium in San Juan which was super cool cause it was gonna hold the whole Island. Turns out a little while afterward the First Presidency asked that the meeting be held in one of the stake centers on the island on Sunday. So then on Saturday we got a text from the APs saying that the meeting had been changed, and that the prophet, together with Elder Renlund and his wife, would be giving the conference from the Caguas Stake Center.....That's OUR Chapel Building!
So after we got that text we were like, "uhhhh, the prophet of the whole world is coming to our Church on Sunday!" We were freaking out, and so was the whole ward, and the whole stake! I guess the plan was to then broadcast it from the chapel to the rest of the stake centers around the Island.
But then I guess all of the other stakes on the Island got super flamed and mad that they weren't going to get to see him in person (yeah, he's like a big celebrity or something)! So then because of complaints, after about a day of the plans being to have it in our stake center, they changed it back to happen in the Baseball stadium in San Juan.
So, the Prophet is not actually coming to our chapel, but he will still be coming to the Island and we will get to see him, so that's super cool! w= We're super excited about that. It is a whole stadium though, so I probably wont get to meet him or Elder Renlund in person, but its okay.
Cool story actually. In April 2017 Conference Priesthood session, grandpa took me with him. He introduced me to some people and the two people that stopped and talked with me for a substantial amount of time about my mission call to Puerto Rico and the importance of Missionary work were (the elder) now President Nelson, and Elder Renlund. So it's super-cool now that I am going to be able to see and Hear them talk in Puerto Rico!
That's the Exciting news for this week, I Love you All!
