Los Cambios!!!

Hola todos!! We recieved the call yesterday about what our changes are gonna be. I'm staying here in Allende! My new companion is Elder Salas. I don`t know him but I am excited. Elder Peña is going with an Elder Perez from Chiapas. Elder Hendricks and Elder Clegg stay here in Allende as well. We have a new assistant and a new secratery in the offices. Elder Koch is coming to be our new Zone Leader and we are gonna have a trio in our district. Some pretty crazy changes. 

Some pretty cool stats from this last change (6 weeks) As the zone of Linares we are the smallest zone in the mission with 12 missionaries. This last change we achieved 18 BAPTISMS as a zone. There was only one zone that had more and that was Mitras. They had 19. Our goal was the highest in the mission with 27. We are trying to start a movement in the mission to return to the success that we used to have. And we put the example. We are all pumped for this next change to work even more harder to achieve our goal. 

I have 11 months here in Mexico officially and this next change I will complete a year. Crazy! Allende now is also officially the area I will have been in for the most time. I do love it here so I am completely fine with that. 

I love you all!!! Que tengan una semana muy buena y llena de felicidad!!!

Fun facts about the Linares Zone.  The zone consists of 3 cities.  Each city has 2 sets of missionaries.  The 3 cities in our zone are Allende, Montemorelos, and Linares.  Our district has us 4 missionaries here in Allende and then one of the sets of missionaries in Montemorelos.

Jan 7 - Bad Toes

Jan. 7 well this last week was pretty eventful. Wednesday I had to go to the hospital to get both of my toes taken care of because I had ingrown toenails on both feet. Since it was both feet I've been unable to do anything for almost the whole week. Today I am going back to get the stitches out so I can get back to working. It isn't even cold down here. Well hope everyone has a really good week.  Elder Hoyt

Training

Hey everyone so I just finished my first week as a trainer. My new companion is Elder Peña from the Dominican Republic. He is 25 years old and is a convert of 2 and a half years. I almost feel like I am the one being trained here haha. He has so much gospel knowledge and has absolutely no problem with wanting to talk to people. He is also exactly obedient along with me. We have a baptism for the 31st coming up and we are finding more people to teach. I have a good feeling about the success we are going to have this change.  I am also excited for my Christmas call coming up on Monday next week!! I get to see my family! Tomorrow is our mission talent show/ christmas dinner and I'll be singing let it go haha.  I love you all! Talk to you next week New Trainers And your new trainee is........

1 year mark!!!

Hey everyone! So this last week I hit my 1 year mark on the 4th! It is so weird. I don't feel like I have been out here for a year already. I have learned so much and for this last half I am going to apply what I have learned to bring out my full missionary potential!  This week we are going to be having a baptism on Saturday. And then we are going to be having changes next Tuesday so we'll see what happens there as well. I have been here in Allende for a while so there is a chance that I get changed. We are all pretty sure that Elder Hendricks is gonna be going too.  We had a cool opportunity to do some service on Saturday. We helped a guy cut some weeds and clean up his yard too. His neighbor thought we were crazy for coming here to Mexico for two years to help people, but was impressed as well.  Anyway, Love you all! Have a great week! Elder Hoyt (Elder Hoyt says that time is going by so fast and that he can't believe that it has been a year alrea...
