Elder Cannon Eagar- Dominican Republic Santiago Mission February 2025 - February 2027

  This week was a full one to say the least a lot happend. Lots of really touching experiences that were really cool! I got to go on a companion exchange and got to got to the heart of down down santiago. The elder i went with in charge of all social media and all the referrals that people put in. So i ended up not going out in the morning and just on a computer going through them and calling them. Crazy how many people hit the link and fill it out but then say they never did it haha. Like buddy you filled out your whole name email and phone number haha. But after that we got to go out for a little and met with this really old lazy. She was the sweetest person ever. Shes 81 and we got to talking and giving her a lesson and she told us a story that was pretty touching. She said one day she started to feel really hot and her skin started to look black including her face. She went to a doctor and she said it got worse and she said she was never going back. She picked up the bible and ...

We are teaching this lady named Griselda and she is soooo funny. She is always making jokes and trys her best to understand my spanish. Shes been in teaching for about 4 weeks and she is awsome! We even have our own little hand shake and when ever we pull up to her house no matter what shes doing she runs out the door and greets us with a smile. The other day we went on a adventure and went a little far and we looked at a map and we were like well to be back in time we just need to cut through this field and cross this river or go all the way around. So you know me i begged my companion to go through the field. Which wasent a field by the way more like a jungle... but we got...

After some later searching around we were switching houses with the hermanas because they had been followed by people multiple times and they dident feel safe.
