This
week was a blast!! I´m gonna flip thru the pages of my planner and give
yáll the hilights of these past 7 days! ready? set, go!
We
met a reference from the elders and it turns out that her son´s
conviviente enamorada was taught by missionaries before in trujillo!!
crazy, right? but she´s kinda spacey when we teach her, so we´ll see
what happens..but it was awesome to meet and teach the mom, her son, and
the girlfriend!!
Juan carlos, converso
reciente, is doing good!! he´s been getting lots of blood exams and
transfers of blood cause he´s anemic, but he´s been better these days!
came to the baptism and baby shower on saturday! and we´re gonna help him out with his family search, he´s really into it. looking for relatives and everything.
We were in a trio on wednesday
with hna. tulumba cause her companion went to trujillo for a leadership
mtng. with elder uceda who came to talk to all the mission. so I worked
with her and my companion went on a split with roxana. ahhh I haven´t
even told you all about hermanita roxanita yet!! she´s fabulous. was
less-active, but we visited her, taught her all the basics from pmg over
again and now she´s the rs secretary and has been thinking about going
on a mission!! it was so precious, she called us like 5 times saturday
morning, but we didn´t answer cause we were studying and after we
ended, we stopped by at her house to see what happened and she called
cause she wanted to know how to fast. isn´t that so cute? I love
hermanita roxanita!!!
Delmi, gladis, and
delmys. a family of investigators that we´ve been teaching for awhile,
but now a whole lotta progress just yet. buuut saturday
we helped em out with sanding and painting the gate slash door to their
house and they´re more attentive when we´re teaching them.the parents
have been living together for 32 years and not married. haha nadie esta
casado!! de verdad. I don´t get why.
So thursday
all day we had a meeting slash devotional that was amazing with elder
uceda and his wife!! he´s the president of the noroeste area, in the
seventy. it was my very 1st time ever hearing a talk from him and it was
wonderful!! so many incredible insights and things to improve on and
focus more on. his wife talked to us and asked us what our mothers told
us to be or do in the mission. like obedience, be a good companion,
serve with all your heart, etc. that type of advice. I raised my hand
and said service with a smile! haha thats such an ann boody advice right
there!!
Then in the night, all the ward
leaders from ward council came and we had a great meeting all together.
all the sister missionaries were invited to sit up front by the pulpit
and I ended up sitting RIGHT next to elder uceda!! haha our bishop in
the congregation kept giving me smiles. it was hilarious. and our ward,
especially our ward, el carmen that I always rave about were invited by
prez. uceda to come up to the púlpit. as the example for the stake to
follow, how we work together as a ward with all the leaders and
everything. he said well look, your ward has 12 missionaries! he pointed
at my companion and I and said here we have 10 missionaries, then
pointed to elder boekweg and elder oyarzo and said here´s your 2 more.
haha poderoso, no??
Have been looking thru the
ward directory with what less-actives from the ward we can help to come
back and found an awesome 14 year old young man named piero!! he´s
wonderful and we have a fhe with him tonight at the stake presidents
house.
Had a great lesson about the plan of salvation and family history work carmelita and mamma alicia came with us too!!
Saturday
night sergio and ericka, 2 investigators, came with us to the baptisms,
2 in our ward and 2 in pensacola and it was wonderful!! then we went to
kelly and helmo´s baby shower.
Phew. awesome
and jam-packed week!!! love you all very much and hope you have a
wonderful day and week!! ive been praying for hunter with the house and
aunt elizabeth for her health.
