So, first off. My package, FINALLY GOT HERE. I'm going to pick it up today from the Zone Leaders place. So that's pretty exciting. It was a lot of drama, but I think from now on my packages will get here faster cuz I have my carta de poder now.
Oh, also, if I didn't tell ya'll, my bed broke like 3 weeks ago, so I have been sleeping on the floor for like 3 weeks haha. My new bed came today, so I'm excited to sleep on that again.
Soooo... Monday was spent in Quillabamba for Pday. We made pizza and macaroni and cheese. Tuesday we met with some members, and with a few investigators. Wednesday, we came to Quilla, and the gringos did divisions and the latinos did divisions. So, it was a fun filled day of teaching, speaking in English, and eating American food for all our meals. Sadly, the numbers from that day didn't get to count towards our numbers... haha. Thursday, my comp was suffering from some different problems, so he refused to go out and work, so that was a fun day....Friday...um. We worked with a bunch of members that day, and got stuff ready for an activity on Saturday.
Saturday we had an activity, that basically lasted all day for us. We started out with a service project in the morning with a member, then came to the chapel and cleaned there, then we ate lunch with the members. It was pretty good, we had a decent turn out, and we took lunch to some of the members who couldn't come. But, doing all of it ended up taking up most of the day, so there went a lot of potential for numbers that day... Fluuuussshhhh....
Sunday was good! We're climbing with our numbers that are coming to church, so that makes me super happy. We have some less actives that are now considered active, cuz they have come a lot and are participating again, so that makes me happy. Although we maybe didn't have a lot of lessons with investigators, we are definitely strengthening the group here. I really don't care that much if we have lots of baptisms or not, but it makes me happy that these people are starting to find or refind their testimonies. We taught a few people in the evening, so that was good.
All in all, it was a good week, but our numbers looked perdy bad, which is a bummer. But, we're seeing progress here, and that is what is important to me. Fun story for the week... I was going to put gel in my hair this week, and I picked up my gel bottle real fast (it was laying on it's side on the counter, in our outdoor bathroom). When I picked it up, I saw something brown fall behind me, so I looked behind me and didn't see anything, so I turned back to the mirror to put the gel in my hair... and I saw a HUGEMONGOUS cockroach running up my shirt trying to climb on my face. My comp ran out of the room cuz he thought someone was trying to kill me.
Anyways. Keep on keeping on everybody! Love and miss you! Gona see if I have a change this week.. part of me wants one, and part of me wants to stay... guess we'll see haha. Until next week!
