538 Days

Wednesday December 5, 2012

So this week we have been having some trouble to organize ourselves to find these less actives in the ward. We have called everyone now and for everyone that didn't respond we are going to their house to find them! Thursday nothing much happened. Then Friday we went on a shoe hunt because my companion also needed shoes. I love finding discounted things. I found shoes for 50 percent off! (smiley still not working so...(insert smiley here). Then we saw a new convert and a less active and a family that is having a son prepare for his mission and we have the same age. not same birthday this time though haha. So we had a fun time with them but they live kinda far away so we got home really late.

Saturday we were going to see another less active to try and help her with her kids because the husband is in prison because he was in the mafia and so we are just trying to help her. She really has her hands full! We were going to see her but there was a bus strike and we don't have bikes so we just kinda spent the day in the house doing area book and what not. It really is hard as a missionary to stay inside!

Sunday the less actives from Ecudador came to church! Then we went to center of the city to invite people and there was this street performer from Columbia, he was super funny. We stopped to watch him for a little while. We just needed some time from working for just a bit.

Monday we had a good district meeting and the sisters gave us one of their investigators named Donald and he seems pretty cool. He is 17 years and we will definitely try to work with him. he has had 2 baptismal dates already.

Then yesterday we taught Valentaria and I'm not really sure how it will go she really just wants to write a school paper on us. Then we helped a sister that can't come to church to give her sacrament, then ward council The bishopric really has a lot of faith in us, I hope we won't let them down. I doubt we will but it's just really hard when we don't have a car and it takes literally almost an hour for us to travel everywhere!

Then today we got kinda messed up because we had an appointment in the middle of the day so we didn't do anything (sad face) for P day.

And, yes snow my companion isn't happy though because he comes from the Island of Sardegna but its still a part of Italy.

　

Well I at least want to buy you and Richard something and depending on how much we have others in family. Also Glowa's beard, I can't believe it! (Glowa was Jake's trainer and is home now in Canada, he grew a beard for Movember) mine will be like that when I get home too! Good luck with the jewelry party, I am sure it should go great!

　

love you have a great week.
