Week 44 - San Martin

HOW IS YOUR TUMMY?

Im fine. It hurts still pretty frequently, but I just dont care enough to go to the doctor again. Plus, Im waiting for Hna Casariego to get here with the results from the tests I did in Esquel. 

the companionship?

Its good. Im realizing its an answer to my prayer to be happy in ALL circumstances no matter who im with... or in other words to be patient. oops. Its fine... Im happy with my answer from God! 

funny?

My companion threw and entire bucket of water on the floor to wash it today. Needless to say, it did not dry like she hoped in the humid, moldy aprtmant haha 

the area?

REALLY GOOD! 

the investigators?

REALLY GOOD! We found this old investigator that didn't remember a single lesson that the missionaries taught so they left him. When we went, he said he's been reading every day and knows the book is true because he feels good about it even though he doesn't remember what he's read. He went to church yesterday and he will be baptized on the 4th of march:) Also we found a young mom who WAS studying with jehovahs witnesses but then we found her and visited her every day and now she wants to be baptized in this church. Idk if you got the pic of that kkitty asleep in my lap, but that was a miracle because I was praying that either her little toddler or the kitten would be calm during the lesson because with both running around, she doesn't concentrate. I got there and the cat fell right asleep in my lap:) BLESSINGS! 

Have you won over the other missionaries with your righteous dedication and winning ways?

Uhhhh. YES! What kind of a question is that? The mission leader told us the reason why there were so many white washing and changes... lots of disobedient missionaries.. really good ward. 

good?

FOOD! 

bad?

MOLD 

dogs?

They loved me this week:) They folllow me in the street 

new?

New investigators! YAYA! 

dead animals?

No. but a few injured ones:( 

Is San Martin the biggest town you've served in?

YES! There are a lot of people. But our area is all of down town and the mountains around it. So we climb. a lot. There are LOTS of staircases. The one I sent a pic of is the fanciest one there is. 

have you gotten rid of all the mold?

:(((((((( Im trying! It smells like mold or bleach every day hahaha But it a LOT better. As you can see in the pictures where there is almost no green or black on the ceilings. The pension doesn't have AC but its not super necessary so far because it gets pretty chilly at night. And its been raining almost all week. Not RAINING just sprinkling.  The pictures you have is after TWO weeks of deep good clean and it is still terrible haha 

what is the secret to your winning ways?

You gotta know when to hold em. Know when to fold. Know when to walk away. Know when to run.
