¡Hola from Chuburná!
| The calle I live in. The kids play soccer every night. |
Yes, you heard
right, last night was transfers but I am staying in Chuburná with my
mom! Hah we were so excited when we found out; normally you stay with
your trainer for two cambios but Presidente doesn´t always work that way
so I was a bit nervous before. Especially because I feel like we
finally got the ball rolling this week. We found several new
investigators, including a little family that is just awesome. And....
...drum roll please....
WE
HAD SIX INVESTIGATORS IN THE CAPILLA!!! It´s a miracle considering
we´ve had a grand total of one eleven year old in all the rest of the
weeks combined. It made me super happy. :)
Also,
can we talk about He is the Gift (en español Él es la Dádiva, BTW no
one knows the Word Dádiva) If you haven´t seen it go to christmas.mormon.org
and watch the video and share it because it´s seriously AWESOME. I love
it because I feel like I´m more focused in Christ now when we contact,
before we had a habit of highlighting the Restoration, but now all of
our contacting is centered more in Christ. Also, because it´s Christmas
time we get to sing Christmas hymns and we´re learning that for the most
part even if people don´t want to listen to us they´ll listen to us
sing. :)

| Hna Flor! About to head out on a misión to Costa Rica! |
So things that happened this week:
I got called rubia which is basically blond...haha if only they could see my siblings.
Hermana
Ludlam got really sick so I had a nice day of working on our área map
and book. Luckily I have an immune system of steel so I´m doing
good...knock on wood.
Hermana Margarita made us
panuchos which are like my FAVORITE THING EVER. They´re tortillas with
beans inside, and chicken and cabbage and salsa on top....you don´t even
want to know how many I ate....
We got to
teach the Young Women how to study like missionaries. It was awesome and
since studying is one of the highlights of my day I was super excited
to help them get excited...
Umm...we
got peed at....Basically what happened was that we contacted a man in
the calle he went inside for what we thought was just going to be a
moment, but out came a different man who, when we tried to introduce
ourselves, started peeing...we took the hint and left. The thing about
it though is that like four months ago I would have been furious.
I know...you´re all shocked that I have a temper. hah
And
I´m not saying I´m a saint, but I wasn´t even mad. I´m not saying I
want to be best friends, I just felt bad for him. He has no idea what
he´s turning down.
But luckily we found lots
of people this week who didn´t turn us down and I´m so excited to keep
working in this área for the next 6 weeks!! I love you all and hope you
have a great week!
And don´t forget to #SharetheGift
¡Vale la pena!
