This is
weird, I just touched my head and realized that for the first time in my
life I have hair gel in my hair. Weird! O_o O_O o_O It´s like I had
sticks of hair that I could just pull out because it doesn´t belong...
o_o It´s like grass blades...
This was a
fantastic week! I feel kind of bad because when we were in Cusco we
didn´t do anything but consejo really, but here in our sector we were
pulling hard! We ended the week with 11 new investigators! And we found 7
of them yesterday and of those 7, 5 we found last night at the same
time! That was super cool to see that the Lord was willing to bless us
for our diligence in wanting to achieve 7 new investigators this week
despite consejo and working until the last moment, because it was the
last door I was going to knock where we found the 5, it was an abuelita
with 4 of her granddaughters.
My health is super great, I bundled up in Cusco to make sure I´d remain healthy.
Our sector as I said is going really well right now, we´re working on teaching people as well as finding. It´s good.
My
spirits are so much better than a week or two ago, I´m feeling good
about my efforts in the mission again and I´m making more personal
effort to be better. I´m also happy with what I´m doing now.
Also,
we had consejo de lideres this week too, that was definitely the best
one I´ve been to yet! (out of 2 that´s not too hard... but it was better
than the other ones in the office too :D ) I´m hilarious, seriously. :D
:D :D Jejejeje jajaja hehe hahaha! I just literally laughed what I
wrote out in laugh form... O.o I like these emojis I can make too!
Okay,
seriously now, we had 11 new investigators like I mention above I´m
sure. And yeah, that was awesome. Another thing is that I had a very
large brain fart Sunday morning, I´m pretty sure it´s because I forgot
to pray that morning because I jumped out of bed into the shower. Also, I
leave my journal up on the light fixture in our pension´s house when I
have to update it and couldn´t at night because reasons. And so I leave
it there until night, but I forgot it last night because it was the
birthday of her sister-in-law and so we ate at their house.
Also,
I got a haircut today and used Elder Bednar´s picture as the example
pic for the barber, and he asked if he was the President of the
Jehovah´s Witnesses, I said that he was an Apostle of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. And he cut my hair like his, so now I
have an Elder Bednar do. :D Also, this is why I just realized I had gel
in my hair, because I don´t know when the barber put it in my hair. I
didn´t have any space-time continuum problem, just a barber put gel on me
head.
I got cool things in Cusco, and I´m not going to mention any of them because they´re surprises.
OH! And Giordano got baptized!
Silly me, I was almost forgetting that.
Giordano
is the pension´s son, Hermana Esther. He turned 8 a couple weeks ago,
well, about a month. But he was baptized on Saturday, and it was very
nearly black when the service started and so Elder Carlson couldn´t read
the sheet music to play the piano, so we used the blessed blessing of
technology and held a phone´s flashlight up to it so he could read it.
Why? Because the power was down on the grid for maintenance or something
and was supposed to come back on at 5, which it didn't, so we took pics
and then had the service start in the dark. About 5:30ish. 6 it´s black
pretty much.
I conducted the baptismal service
which was cool and neat. And then after the messages and his grandma´s
musical number had just finished... the lights came back on! So the
ordinance was done in the light. And then we missionaries sang another
number and then it kept going with the welcome and all and then it ended
and was good.
I think that´s the important
things for this week, be good, have fun, read the Book of Mormon because
we are blessed when we do that and go climb a mountain if you feel like
it. That´s fun!
Hurrah for Israel!
