Well, I am just going to come out and say it...
SURPRISEWEBAPTIZEDANOTHERINVESTIGATOR!
"M". He is so awesome. We have been teaching him since we got here to Puente Piedra, and he has gone through this super long process of repentance and changes in his life. He absolutely loves the gospel and the Church. He told us Monday night, HEY I think it's time for me to get baptized! So we had our marvelous district leader, Elder Scroggins, interview him and sure enough, he was ready and worthy. So Saturday night we went to the most beautiful baptismal service I have ever attended. He really has changed so much to be a member, and he is so incredibly deserving of the blessings that come with baptism and receiving the Holy Ghost. Thank you for all your prayers - I know they make a huge difference.
Other things that have happened this week:
Showered in an orange bucket. We didn't have the ability to get rid of water through the regular system for a few days,soooooooo we just filled up an orange bucket and then tossed it over the edge of the roof. #doingitliketheperuviansdo
Had a resplendant zone conference. Our leaders are bosses. And we are now in a leadership position in the zone, as women with different perspectives. woooohooo
Ate some fish ovaries. Well, Hermana Moody ate it and I just picked mine apart. Ew.
Got real sick after that. Both of us. Our pensionist tried to convince us we've been eating too much yogurt...her sister told us we probably got WORMS from the fish she gave us, or some other thing in the mountain of food she stuffs down our throats on a daily basis. Apparently that's real common. But I have had a tummyache and a headache for a little while. Maybe the worms will eat the food that still hasn't digested from last week. Thanks wormies.
We spent eight hours throwing stuff off the roof of a six-story building! It was so glorious and triumphant! That's basically what we call a service activity here in the graceful and conservative land of el Perú.
We went to a birthday party for one of our investigators. She got her face smashed in a cake. What's up?
OH NO I HAVE NO MORE TIME
Quote of the week: Hermana Moody!
"I wonder what Alma the Younger would do if he saw two jovenes making out in the street. I know what Elijah would do. He would send the she-bear after them. That's why I want to be Elijah when I grow up."
I love her.
And I love you all!
