Here we have been teaching like crazy! We have 3
more investigators! We have been working really hard with our less
active members also. We have one investigator who we are trying hard to
get her to come to the church but she says she is always sick or is
lazy. She said that she knows what we are teaching is true. But we just
have to get her to come to church. She is old se llama cecilia! She has a
son who is baptized but hasnt gone to church forever. Cecilia was
baptized in the evangelico church. We are going to work really hard to
get her to church this week.
My companion and I had a really cool experience with
giving a blessing. We have been doing many blessings for members. One
family had a girl who had a lot of pain in her stomach. She was no older
than 4. The family was going to take her to the hospital but wanted a
blessing first. The blessing was very hard because she was screaming and
squirming in her moms arms. I felt so bad because she was in so much
pain. I did the annointing and my companion did the blessing. Right
after he finnished she was calm. Just calm and normal. We blessed her
that she would be calm and feel her Heavenly Fathers love. It was just
amazing, she went from crying and screamin of pain to just nothing. The
family was really emotional. the couple still rushed their daughter to
the hostpital and we continued talking with the rest of their families
talking about the priesthood and miracles they have seen with it. It was
a huge testimony builder for me. We talked with her parents and she was
going to be in the hospital for a while but the doctors said she will
be alright and its not permanent.
I live with a cool guy from Peru and he is always
making peruvian food for us and oh man it is sooooo good!! Tan rico! My
companion and I ran into a group of dunk people. There was 6 or 7 and we
were talking to them about what everthing. Before we left i told them
that my companion had a bad day and that he was very sad. I told them
that he needs a kiss. They all lined up and gave him hugs and kisses on
the cheek! It was so funny! One guy started like fondeling the back of
his head while hugging him and another guy was dancing with him. My
companion was so upset and told me hes going to get even. But it was so
funny!!!!
Saturday
we had a pretty big tremor. It lasted at least a minute! We were on the
second story of our house on the balchony watching everything move. Car
alarms were going off and people running. Then less than a minute after
there was a huge green explosion that lit up the sky. We later found
out that one of the big electical thing on the telephone pole was short
circited or something. Fue tan loco pero super bakan!
Pero esta es mi semana!
Love you all!
