Week 65 - Bariloche

So, this week was crazy! We did exchanges back to back because we called the office too late to do them other than week five and six of the transfer... yay procrastination! I LOVE the sisters! I was with hermana coman and Hermana Lastarria. They are so cute and wonderful! Hermana coman is so special! She has the spirit So strong with her! You can just tell the words she says to the people are really from the spirit! And Hermana LAstarria is a scripture master and just knows the exact scriptures to share with people for their problems! Theyre so great!

We were able to teach ALejandro and find a few new investigators this week! Alejandro is very prepared for the gospel.

This week, it snowed... alot. Well, alot for here. Its only like a foot and a half but Barilooche isnt used to more than a few inches! So there have been power outages, crazy car crashes, ice ALL over the city, closed down roads, etc. 

So, we could not leave for part of Friday, almost ALL of Saturday and almost all of Sunday. There are fallen powerlines, everything! 

So, on Saturday, we went to lunch with a fabulous member. Afterwards, HErmana Howard took me out to icecream at Grido. SO YUMMY. We bought a half kilo of icecreama nd they automatically gave us a to-go bag and all. We're like... thats cute! you act like we wont down this is ten minutes. So, we ate the icecreama nd then the elders told us to go to church where Three companionships (the ones that live close enough to come) of the district were there with two cakes, a dozen of facturas and cookies ç. They sang and rapped happy birthday and Elder Ascencio almost lit the church on fire trying to make an improv candle. We werent aloud to leave out to the street unless we had appointments at this point, so we went out back in the church and ended up having an epic snowball fight. It was really fun. Best birthday eve, Ive always wanted snow on my birthday. I started feeling guilty about it but then again, we would have been in the pension... alone... without light... doing nothing. So, it was the more effective thing we could have done. My skirt was fozen like in the movie frozen and everything. 

Yesterday, they canceled churtch in all of bariloche except for one church. so, we went to that church to take the sacrament and then had lunch, left to proselite for an hour before the zone leaders let us know yet again that we had to stay in the apartment for they whole day. Good times in the snow! The whole world shuts down haha 

So, thats been my week! I am very happy in the work and am LOVING Barilopche.
