Semana 41
okay.....
I open my email and the first thing I see: University
Communications...BYU making sure I actually want to come back...do I??? haha
just kidding...they needed an actualized ecclisiastical endorsement and
naturally I forgot my BYUpassword sooooo that has taken up most of my time
today haha
but just a quick recap of whats been going down, here in
Encarnaciòn Rama 3:
Obligado was awesome!!!!!!!!! and the ruins were so cool. I
couldnt help but think of Mom, the random historical sites in the middle of no
where in places we have been; you wouldve loved it. the pension of the hermanas had SO MANY
COCKROACHES...
but the kiosko had JIFF PEANUT BUTTER, so that made me feel
better :)
Thursday planning: My focus was to be love and patience
Thursday night we get a call from the hermanas in
Pillar...because of the amount of flooding, they would be closing the area and
coming to stay with us...till the end of transfers...
4 hermanas, one bathroom...
actually not as bad as I thought it would be...

There have been enough testimonies given that proove that I
am a...Latina...
and with my latin comps both being from Argentina giving me
my Porteño (shhh) accent, it was decided that I`m from Neuquen. cool.
A month ago Hna Aquino and I were in Hush Puppies getting
her some new shoes and after talking to the shopping clerk we found that he
lived IN OUR AREA!!!! But...in a really sketchy area and he said we could only
pass at night...
Yesterday, when we were out contacting, I got the impression
that we should go look for him. We did, we found him (miracle), and had an
awesome first lesson. Super awesome guy that wants to serve God and feel closer
to him. 24 years old (FUTURE MISSIONARY!!!) He`s the oldest of 4 boys (LOTS OF
FUTURE MISSIONARIES!!! haha) Seriously, all was going spendidly until...
Fernando - "So can you all do other things too, or do
you only work"?
me - "Like what"
Fernando - "like go for a walk or...go out to
dinner..." (snakey look)
me - "we buy groceries and talk to our families on
Mondays and we`ll see you on tuesday!! BYE!"
and then we purposefully sped walked out of their home...
missionaries dont go on dates.
Oh oh oh and LAST NIGHT! the Magis had their baptismal
interviews!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BAPTISMS THIS SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:)
I am so happy.
Even though it`s hard, I love it. I love the area and the
people a little more each day :)
Cambios next week...I really hope I`ll be staying...GIVE ME
ONE MORE TRANSFER HERE!!!!
so much more happened, but I know that no one really cares,
and that people really just want to make sure I`m alive...we`ll the sun and the
heat is doing a pretty good job of BBQing me alive, but we`re still going
strong down here.
love you all
have a good week!
