First off it might take a while for me to respond, i lost my
debit card and they also raised the price of sending letters to about 5 bucks.
haha so have patience(: also it takes forever for me to get letters, i still
havent gotten any, but i have hope!
Well im starting to love the food here, especially the bread
and cake. i had guinney pig this morning for breakfast..yuuuummmm (: haha it
tastes like fish and chicken mixed, not my favorite but thats okay. later today
were going to try to make cookies... that should be interesting. im excited
about it! Also my companion told me this week that our area is the area that no
one wants to go to because its so hot and has tons of hills. I think its a
blessing that i started here, because i love this area and all the people! I
started the tradition of falling asleep during nightly prayer this week...
oops. haha but i guess that means im working hard! im going to start teaching
english everyweek starting next week so thats exciting! were hoping it will
bring in some new investigators! This week was tough. Most of our lessons or
appointments fell through and we didnt have any investigators show up for
sacrament. also i was a little frusterated with my spanish because ive been
here for about a month and a half and still struggle with it. but because of
that i learned that i need to focus more on having the spirit with me. Because
truly its not me or my spanish that will help and convert people its the
spirit. i also was reading in the book of mormon about alma and all the other
missionaries and how much they went through to share the gospel. the problems
and difficulties we have here are nothing compared to theirs and im learning
that difficult times make us stronger. We are ready to work extra hard this
week and to be as obedient as we can. i know that there are people here ready
to accept this gospel, we just need to work hard to find them! I love it here.
i know i say that a lot but its because its true! i cant imagine not being here
or not doing this work. I love it i love it i love it!!! Thank you for all of
your support and emails, and letters(even though i havent gotten them yet) (:
keep up the work at home and remember how much i love you and appreciate your
prayers!!
