Week 33: Thanksgiving

Well my first and only thanksgiving in the mission came and went. I thought it wouldnt feel like thanksgiving but I woke up to cold rainy weather. The rain followed me from Washington and wished me a happy thanksgiving so that made me smile. We ended the day absoulety soaking wet but it made me happy. As an apartment we ended up making mashed potatos, stuffing, Mac and cheese and a little cake to celebrate. I missed my family A TON because our mission president wouldnt allow us to call home so that was hard :( But all in all a pretty good day. 


The weather was absoulety garbage this week. Super muddy, cold and miserable but a lot better than 110 degree weather jajaja. 


This week was pretty fast and thanks to Luciano who is literally the best convert ever we have two very good people that we are teaching. 
One is the Cousin of Luciano his name is Igancio and he is super fun! He came to church this sunday and seemed to really enjoy it. We have plans to invite him to be baptized this week so pray for him!!!
The second is the sister of Luciano her name is Luben and she is 15 and she is so quiet just like Luciano but she is literal GOLD!! We have so much faith and deeply believe that she is going to be are next baptism. The thing is every lesson with have with them is a little strange only because when we get serious Luciano starts laughing which makes us laugh and makes Luben and Ignacio think we're wierd. Also sometimes either me or the Hermana Lemos will start laughing randomly so they think were fools but oh well its a fun time and we have A LOT OF FAITH in them!!! 
Pray for Luben and Ignacio por favor!!! 


Thats all for this week 


Los amo a todos

Whatttttttt i cant believe I am at 17 months ! Monday we did a district Pday in the Mountains. It sounds all nice and dandy but it wasnt. The ride up was twisty and we were in this old bus that tilted off the side of the cliff everytime we turned. We saw a 100 foot tall virgin statue and then a few yards away this minsicule jesus statue that you had to squint to see ( argentinas sure got her priorities straight here ) It was over 100 degrees and dusty. We hiked and ate asado which was the best part. I felt like angelia in the office when I said the music was too loud. On my behalf we couldnt hear eaxh other and had to ScReAm to speak.  Anways we ended up getting stuck in the Mountain because we missed the bus twice but it was fine because we ended up playing Catan i was partnered with elder Heredia and we won. and we drank mate you know theres nothing like sharing the same drink and straw between 8 missionaries as a bonding exercise. we love a good mateada. Tuesday: we we...

Week 22: A Cruel Joke And Lautaros Baptism!!!!!!!

Image
Muy buenos dias bienvenidos a una otra semana!  Bueno this week was good on Monday me and Hermana Braatz wondered into a Catholic Mass where we got really wierd looks. It was a very peaceful experience we also saw some one get shushed by a priest and it was really funny we had to leave before we laughed to loud.  Thursday: our district leaders played a CRUEL joke on us. In the afternoon we waited patiently to recieve a call saying the Lautaro passed his baptism interview and at 4:30 or so we recieved a text from the Elders saying that they needed to talk to us about Lautaro because he failed his interview. We freaked out trying to call them sent texts and they werent responding so we trecked the 40 minute walk to Lautaros house and knocked on his door determined to find out what happened his sister answered and said that he had left because he failed the interview and we asked about what had happened and she told us that he couldnt answer some of the questions  because we...
