canchangas and shampoo... classic peruvian snack
Well...
the most exciting thing here is always the food when its yummy! haha... not
really, but, there was some good food this week!
On Tuesday
we had the Leadership meeting which was super fun! It’s like 5 hours long with
all the zone leaders and sister leaders, it was so cool to learn from President
and Hermana Williams of how we can help the missionaries and the mission
better. They talked a lot about using the Book of Mormon, so we have been
focusing on that and it has been really cool! I have felt how my personal
testimony of how everything depends on that book has grown. I love the Book of
Mormon! And that is where we ate pizza pockets. yum.
We then
taught bits and pieces of the meeting in our zone meeting, which was really
fun! I feel like I have learned so much in this last week, its awesome.
Besides
that, it has just been really hot. I’m glad I’m not in Jaen again, but I’ve
been trying to remember all of my tricks at staying cool.
Also, it
was Hermana Wood’s 22nd birthday on Saturday which was WAY FUN. We had tacos
and tres leches at night, which was awesome. She is the best!
One funny
thing that happened is we were trying to talk to the people in different ways,
so a lady walked by with flowers and I asked " how pretty, what are those
flowers for?" and she said for the virgin maria..... haha.... hopefully we
can teach her this week.
The ward
is doing awesome though! Lots of new members have been coming with us and I LOVE
THEM. They are so cute and so fun. We are still seeing a lot of success with
the bishop’s family... they are kind of our only investigators, but they are
awesome! It’s cool how the Lord opens people’s hearts in different ways. They
have all heard about the gospèl, but never had any interest until the passing
of the bishop’s daughter.
Overall,
I’ve just felt very grateful. I feel that the Lord gives us so much, and
sometimes here I get frustrated and wonder where the help is, then I pray and
remember all the blessings he has given me and it changes literally everything.
There is so much good and so many people all around to help and that help
us.
Hopefully
you have a great week!
Love you
all!
