This week we went to the temple for a mission activity. We
had a bus for our ward and we took our investigators to learn more about the
temple. There were people from all over our mission. Presidente Vasquez said
that about 1,600 people came. It was
great, but it rained so we were scooping ice cream and the ice cream got all
over our hands so we rinsed them off in the rain afterward.
Also, mom, we don’t keep any of our food out. Every crumb is
in the fridge so the ants don’t get to them... and possibly a mouse...
We got home the other night and we went into the kitchen to
grab a snack and when we turned on the light we saw a dark little skutteling
thing move across the floor! It went
behind the fridge so I tried to move the
fridge but it wouldn’t move. It’s been a few nights since we’ve seen him so we
think that he left, and there isn’t a dead smell anywhere in the house so we
are hopeful that it found a different home.
We also found a menos activo while walking. His name is Fancisco and he is a very cute old
man who can’t go to church because of his health. But he is very sweet and when
we met him I felt the most genuine love for him. It was so sweet. Whenever we
visit him the spirit is there. Really the fruits of the spirit in Galatas
5:22-23 are what I feel. Amor y gozo
especially.
But we were bringing a liahona to read to him and I
accidentally brought an English one. That was no good. Oops but we laughed it
off and we will continue to visit him and read to him.
I am happy here and I am praying for everyone. I love you
all.
Oh, I thought I would write some of the things I’ve become
more accustomed to :
-the chickens and ducks live with the people in their
houses. They poop and eat off the floor. They are quite gross to look at because many
of them don’t have feathers in patches. It is horrible.
-but the people also spit on their floors and walk barefoot
through all the ickiness.
-Buses get filled very quickly and the people don’t have a
problem with personal space because that concept doesn’t exist.
-there is no such thing as vegetables here.
This week was good on this end!
I’m praying for everyone.
