Hola Familia!
This was a great week of working hard in the missionary
work! Remember the pictures we took in the park? Well we delivered some of them
and the result has been awesome! Every person that we delivered the pictures to
were willing to listen to us and accept another visit! We taught one awesome
family (parents and two little boys) the other day and they have so much
potential! Hopefully things work out with them. Once were done handing out all
the photos Hna Moscoso wants to do the activity again because we've been able
to find such amazing people from it.
I finally ate chuño, which is the foot stomped/frozen
outside potatoes, for the first time. Everyone is shocked that I made it 6
weeks without ever eating it haha. It wasn't that bad, but I definitely tried
not to think too much about what I was eating haha.
This weekend was the Festival of the Virgin Guadalupe which
involved a lot of folk dancing. Basically it was two days straight of a parade
of dancing. I loved it!
This week was crazy with transfers. I went to the airport
three times and the bus terminal twice to pick up and drop off hermanas that
were traveling solo and needed companions. I met my "sister" (also
trained by Hna Moscoso) Hermana Cordova which was cool. Also, my other
"sister" Hermana Burton just got transferred to Sucre as a sister
training leader so we had her stay with us the past two nights while her
companion was getting sealed to her family in Cocha. It was fun to have other
people with us. Everyone is so awesome!
I have three scriptures from my study this week that I
loved: 2 Nephi 25:29, 3 Nephi 14:24-25 and 2 Nephi 26:31. They all kind of
connect in the sense that everything we do needs to be centered on Christ. When
we are determined to serve Christ in all we do we can be assured that all will
work out in the end! What an amazing promise.
I love you all so much and hope all is well! Congrats Mom on
the job!
