I hate bed bugs!



heyo


This week is one for the books here in Dallas. The dang ghost just won't leave us alone, here's what I got; bed bugs, pipe under our sink broke, member walked into our house and starting preaching deep doctrine, had to sing in church and henry the cat is missing :'(

Besides all these shenanigans, this week was still pretty decent. I finally got my flight information to Paraguay so it sounds pretty legit this time. I'm supposed to be leaving next sunday at 8 am and will be arriving in Paraguay at 6 am the following morning, so yeah, wish me luck lol. 

As far as work went this week, it was good! Due to the pandemic a lot of people stopped going to church so we've been focusing a lot of our efforts on reactivating. We've gotten really close with this one family who has 6 kids under the age of 13 so as you can imagine, it feels a lot like home. One of their daughters, Ozma, won't let me leave until I read a chapter of the children's book of mormon with her in both spanish and English whenever we stop by & it's the sweetest thing haha, I love them a ton.

On Wednesday I had exchanges and I was leading the Casa Linda Area once more in spanish, it actually went pretty well. We found two new people that day so after that experience all I can say is the gift of tongues is very, very real everybody. I've also had the opportunity to be teaching a few english classes and those have been really fun and a great learning experience. 

It's pretty hard leaving Dallas, as funny as that still sounds to me it's very true. It's not the easiest to articulate how I feel about the people i've met and the testimony I've gained while serving the lord here. I've re-written this paragaph a few times and I still can't really get it right. At least I know what it'll be like leaving a mission so I can better appreciate to be "in the moment" down in Paraguay. Onto the next chapter!

I really hope y'all are enjoying yourselves even in these tough times. I'd really love to hear from any of you so don't think twice about reaching out!

Remember to stay safe and don't forget to "consider the lillies"

Con muchísimo amor,

Elder Fuell

 July 11, 2022 _ Mostlikely last letter Haupei! Yeah I can't really believe that I'm writing a letter either. My companion and I have been working harder than ever before and it's really paying off. This last week we found 8 new people, had 12 at church and set a date and a wedding for one of our main homies Freddy. Giving it our all this last little bit I have left. This feels extremely gratifying after first finding this same area with lots of unnecessary ward drama and little to no success in the missionary work.  My time in Paraguay is coming to an end here in a week and a half so I thought I'd write a letter for my final reflection because I really find it unlikely to write two weeks in a row; my mission really changed my life, feels like the pivotal moment of my life. Though I'm ever so excited to be home I'm surely going to miss my friends and companions here in Paraguay, Especially the people and the loving culture.  People don't lie when they say it...

Yukyry - December 13, 2021 and January 10, 2022

 Dec 13, 2021 What's up everybody, First week in Yukyry was super crazy!! The area is massive so we've been walking around a ton. It also happens to be unbelievably hot so and there have been times when we're running late to lessons and we have to be running down these little trails in the jungle and I'll have sweat flowing down my face. It feels like I'm in a weird Tom Cruz movie or something. I found out this week that the most beloved man in Paraguay is apparently Chuck Norris. The work is really good. It feels like Christmas in July so really it feels like the fourth of July and not Christmas. I also decided to learn Italian this week so we'll see where that goes. I've also been working on how long I can hold my breath and the most I've gotten is 1:24. I've been really studying the book of Romans lately and it's been great. Message me! Con Heteiterei Rohayhu, Tujape Fuell Hello everybody  Im doing good and I'm of good health, my parent...

yukywhoooo   Hello Hello! I've really got to get better at writing emails, The biggest news is that I'm getting transferred from Luque 2 to another area in my zone called Yukyry! it's pronounced like jewkooroo & I don't have a clue what it means but im sure i'll figure it out soon enough. I was called as the new District Leader and I'm gonna be with an Elder who just left his training so it should be pretty fun. The best thing I've heard about Yukyry is that it's basically in the jungles and people like to steal the shoes of the rich(er) looking people, so i'm excited! These last 6 months in Luque have definitely been the hardest and the most rewarding of my mission and I'll always look back on it as the area where I grew the most. We had a lot of potential going in the area right now and I tend to be a pretty sentimental person which sucks so leaving always blows but I'm genuinely excited for this next chapter of my mission. I've als...
