Week 14

I finally hit the 3 month "forget mark" that Brett told me about, where everyone forgets about you for the most part lol.

I got the package you sent, so super thanks for that, it has everything!

Also, I don't know if I was confusing in what I said or what but I meant that I wanted a mini hymn book in English because I already have one in Spanish. But it's chill, now I have an extra.

So here's the event of the week: We were walking down this street when all of the sudden I heard this massive crash behind me, so I look back and like 30-40 feet away I see one of the little motos (little 3 wheeled taxis) rolling backwards out of this driveway but there wasn't a driver in it, so I was super confused. Everyone here has big metal doors that they use for their house doors/garage doors. So I look over a little and I see one of those and it is bent half-way out and I can see the back of this car crushed against it...Apparently, someone must have floored it in reverse without opening the garage door and just destroyed everything!

Also, another event. So we contacted this lady and while we were talking to her, her son climbed in the window (probs like 9 years old) with no pants on. So then we got an appointment with her for the next day and we go back and the same kid comes to the door once again with the same problem!!! lol so that was weird!

Also, a couple days ago I hit 2 years from when I broke my foot the first time!

My companion and I decided last week to start really trading-off in lessons like normal companionship's do so that I can improve more, so that has been good for me.

Anyways, this week was good. we had zone conference on Tuesday, and then Saturday we went to Arequipa and had lunch with one of Elder Lozano's old converts and then went to the conference Pres. Nelson had from Lima with the missionaries.  Later we came back and watched the second conference with Pres. Nelson, which was for all the members. 

The baptism we had planned didn't come through because the man wasn't able to get the info. we needed to fill-out the paperwork, so hopefully this week we can baptize him.

Also, while we were in Arequipa we saw this white couple that said hi to me and I accidentally replied to them in Spanish. haha cool nonetheless.

Also, we met a super good investigator that has a broken foot and looks exactly like I did, except that he has crutches, poor guy.

That's pretty much it I think. Spanish is fine lol just gotta keep studying!

Papa bless!
