So. This week. A lot of things happened! I keep saying that
every week was the busiest week ever but maybe we just never stop... Actually
that's pretty much spot on. We have been working nonstop! We helped clean out
the house of a less active whose coming back to church and bringing a family of
investigators with her. We spent quite a long time cleaning and we hauled out 8
loads of laundry and cleaned them for her. We jammed out to Christian rock
music and loved every minute of it! Then we got to meet with my favorite people
in the world! I sent a photo a little while ago of three teenagers, Roseana,
Diogo, and Beatriz. We had a really powerful lesson with them and each one bore
their simple and sweet testimonies of the church. Roseana and hopefully Beatriz
will be able to get permission from their mom o be baptized here in a little
bit. Their mom has been really fun to work with but she's warming up to us
slowly. American cookies always does the trick.
And I'll explain the heading of the email... So my companion
is a little impulsive hahaha. A member dropped off some fresh fish and we
gutted it and fried it! (Thanks dad for the fish gutting lessons when I was 12)
It was super yummy! We were left with the guts in a bowl and they were kinda
smelly. Sister Foster was like "Well what do we do with this?" And I
said "Just throw it away." Then it was quiet for a second... A little
too quiet. I looked behind me and Sister Foster was out on the balcony with the
fish bowl looking over they edge. I was like.. "Dude... What are you
doing?" And then she said "What do you think would happen to these
fish guts if we threw them off the top of our apartment?"
So I got my camera :D
Continuation of the fish story... So instead of only
dropping the fish.. She also threw the bowl and we had to go down and get it.
Don't worry... We cleaned up a few of the surviving chunks of fish and kicked
dirt over the rest of the.... pulp...
I also had my first African dinner! It was really yummy! We
have two African elders here and they heard that I had never tried Caschupa so
they made some for us! It was so yummy!! Its like.... I can't even describe it.
Its just amazing.
Love you guys!
