Week 48 - San Martin de los Andes

Okay, this week! Where do i begin? 

I love the memebers here. Their incredible. We had a ton of appointments this week and ALL of them fell through haha we had members planned to go with us and everything and we just ended up visiting the less actives instead with the members haha but that's okay! Onward and upward becaaaauuussseee.... 

QUIQUE got baptized!!! He's SO ready! 

He was crying during the baptism, after, during the talks, on sunday. Everything.
He didnt understand the baptism thing very well because of his memory problem, but he looked at the font and said, "theyre gonna bathe me!" haha He's ready because he knows this is the truth and believes with more faith than any other person I've met and is VERY infuenced by angels. Only God could have changed his life like he did. 

Oh, did I tell you, Im the haircutter of the mission. I've officallyl cut the hair of like 4 missionaries. I cut Hermana Coman's hair this week and taught her how to wash her hair. 

Now I'm with Hermana Correa. She was in Esquel when we did exchanges there with Hermana Jarvis (forever ago) and she was there when I was in Trevelin. Her and Hermana Coman switched places. She's a good missionary! She's been out for 8 months in the mission and is from Tucuman, Argentina. 

I think I have lice. I have officially picked out three eggs as I'm sitting here. I'm gonna cry and puke. And kill Hermana Coman cause thats the ONLY way I could have gotten it. And change my bed. And just cry.  I really really would like to burn the place down, but the new carpet guys are coming tomorrow... on second thought... perfect opportunity!  Im going to buy all that stuff and 'Ill have to use my personal money for that because I had to use my money to buy sister Coman's food AGAIN!!! i dont know where she puts her money!
 
How are you these days?
GOOD! 
How's the tummy?
TERRIBLE: Its getting worse and worse. Im going to the doctor this week
How's the area?
Good! 
The companionship?
Good! So far
The companion?
Hermana Correa! 
Investigators?
Madelen says itll be THREE MONTHS before they can do the paperwork to get married... UGG 
Language?  Fue and era?
Fui al hospital cuando yo ere una nena???? I still struggle a bit with that too. 
Favorite ward members?
Ummmmm.... do I have to choose? I think the Anfuso family. they're fabulous. 
Funniest moment?
I SAW HERMANA BROWN YESTERDAY! god decided to bless us with another few precious moments in the bus station of Bariloche. Pictures included. Note in the picture, the little cracker box... This was just 2 hours before I puked in that very box while in the bus. Everyone in the bus helped me, gave me baby wipes, hand sanatized, water. While Hermana Correa, said, hmmm so you dont feel good huh? And then talked about something else. Im like... can't you see Im SICK!? I just puked! Anyways. It was a good experience. Im glad I had bought the crackers! So I could empty the box by eatting them and fill it up by puking them out. Good times. 
Sad?
Puke. 
Happy?
QUIQUE! His real name is Mario... 
What was a miracle? 
Quique got baptized! Even though the ward almost just did not support him. There were 5 people in his baptism and some missionaries.
How's your sleep?
Bad since I found out about transfers.
 How is the condition of your shoes?
Ya know, I kind of only like 2 pairs right now. The other ones are too stretched out, or the strap is kind of broken, or theyre too tight. Im good though! I have more than half the other missionaries.
What do you miss about the states?
The food. Im SO sick of oil and grease and fat. I cant eat it anymore. I get sick. 

Love, Hermana Sant

  1. I love that she is so confident to cut hair! That's so cool. Not cool that her tummy probs were escalating and she got lice, and she had a difficult companion all at the same time. I am so glad things have since improved.
