Hello all.
It has been quite the week. I had the chance to do everything as the penultimate week of my training. Next week we have cambios and there is a chance that I may get transferred. Who knows where. The only thing is if I move, I have to leave a lot of the food I bought today in the Pension. I did buy peanut butter today and it is very expensive. I will be taking that in my suitcase but the rest will stay. We are working super hard this week to do all we can to leave the sector in a good place if we leave.
Today for Pday we went to go see the Mummies that are here in a museum. Apparently they are the oldest in the World. Who knew? It was actually nice to go see them because the museum is more up in the valley and there is actually a lot more green there. It didnt feel like we were in the desert anymore. This week we also finished teaching a family for baptism next Saturday and afterwards we got to see and hold the llama that they had purchased that week. I forgot my camera that day so apologies in advance. Also, Halloween isnt that big of a thing here so thats too bad.
I am happy with the progress I made this week. I really focused on teaching people and not lessons, and the Spirit was so much more powerful. I am really grateful for that. We are teaching this guy that is trying to overcome his addiction to drugs and he actually came to church this week! We had knocked on his door and waited for like 20 minutes the morning of church but he wasn't answering the door. As we were walking down the street, we heard someone yell, but saw nobody, so we continued walking. Then we turned around again and it was the dude! Little miracles help me feel the Spirit and have joy. I really don't feel any greater happiness on the mission that when an investigator comes to church or accepts commitments.
Keep doing good things!
