It has started to get a little chilly here; all
the missionaries have colds, but nothing more so we like to mess around with
sniffling in the meetings with the zone leaders. If you could find a cool electric blanket
that would be super cool, my old companion gave me one, and he thought he was
being kind by washing it before he gave it to me, but long story short all I
have now is a towel with wires inside of it ha ha. We also have a couple
heaters to keep us warm, every mission house has electricity and because of
this we all have those small plug in heater things. They are kind of like the
propane ones just not as hot. We used to
have the propane ones, but the missionaries were having problems with them
exploding, luckily only one house got badly burned, but no missionaries hurt ha
ha. As usual cooking is going really
well here, only problem is they use fire to heat their ovens. This method works
well except you can`t have an exact heat setting, and you have to double the time
for ever recipe in the oven. Basically
the only difference is we have to check the food more and wait a lot longer ha ha
ha. Unfortunately i still haven`t
received the jelly belly bean package. I received the package from grandma
bunch already, and I thought they sent the package after you, so I`m hoping I
get it this week sometime.
Otherwise this is how this week went down, since
the cold weather has started coming in we have decided to go to all the areas
in our zone and carol and contact while caroling. This week we went to meoqui, it ended up being
super successful and we probably got around 120 new potential investigators for
the misioneras of meoqui to contact. it
was really fun to contact while all the missionaries were singing, mainly
because it was really easy to talk with the people when they walked in front of
you to see what`s going down ha ha
The only bad thing that really went down this
week, was that our baptism fell through because of the ex husband again. A big problem is that we now haven`t been
able to enter into the house. This is
weird because the investigator is always inside of her house, so something is
happening. We are hoping to sort it out
and get her back on the path to baptism again.
This is the last week of my training, so
officially I am now an old missionary. I
don’t know but my next companion may be right out of the MTC. That makes me nervous since then everything
is reliant on me, particularly for the first 2 weeks while they are adjusting. No matter what happens, I`m looking forward to
it!

p.s. I`m working on a package and I have little
notes in there for everyone, and one for Maren in Spanish, because I recall
that her Spanish is better than mine ha ha ha
