| This is something super cool that we do in the mission. When new missionaries arrive, the secretaries, assistants, presidents and capacitadoras sing "Called to Serve" in the airport:D |
First of all, happy International Animal Day:D (it was earlier this week), but really, enjoy;) It is so funny here, they celebrate their animals every year by putting special collars on their dogs and giving them baths, cutting their hair, etc. It is a party! (but maybe that's why we don't have any water in the house to bathe ourselves...;))
 |
| Finding a house that has running water at least three times during the week;D |
 |
Looks like Gru's house from Despicable Me so of COURSE it is an option;D)
|
Also, TONS of CRAZY things have happened this week! Cambios were a bit different because the new girl that arrived is super sweet but it extremely shy (and her trainer was the exact opposite). Because they didn't get along too well, President Montoya assigned us to be her MOTHER:D Hna Renovato and I are so excited but a bit uncertain about how we will still do intercambios with the other Hermanas, but hey:) It is all good and we are going to learn lots of great things being in a trio and serving the other sweet Hermanas in our zone:D
 |
| The trio:D - At a Fútbol game:) Te quiero mucho Hermana Garcès:D Gracias por ser mi gran amiga y compañera:D ¡Trabajemos duro y con el Espíritu Santo esta semana |
 |
| Hamburguesas:D |
 |
| ¡Todos nuestros amigos! |
 |
| My companion pulling one of our investigators home so that he wouldn't leave to go drink, hahahaha |
Funny: the pictures sort of tell it all this week, haha! But we had a blast eating lemon pie, pulling drunk investigators home to their houses, saying goodbye to Hermanas with destroyed shoes, taking a super serious photo shoot and attempting to do service for the members in our ward by "heart attacking them"
 |
| Ring n'runs, lol, they really don't work here;D |
Cultural: Heat attacks have the great intention to show one's love by decorating somebody's door, leaving a treat and running to hide...the issue is that the people here really aren't accustomed to having someone knock on their door and hide because there really aren't policeman here and people don't often open their doors to strangers during the night. We nearly caused an old man in our ward to have a heart attack, haha! BUT, we had a blast, especially because we did it with some of our investigators who are usually locked in their house because their parents are out drinking:(
Spiritual: This week really was absolutely crazy and FULL of emotion for all of the sisters that were involved with the cambio to accommodate the new Heramana. But, through the midst of all of the trama, I really came to respect our new president because he was extremely preoccupied about our well-being and showed his love and concern for us every step of the way. I know that he receives divine revelation from God and that he has a genuine love and concern for all of his new hijos y hijas:D
  |
| It was Lemon Pie Day the other day, so of course we had to carve out 5 minutes to find some pie....The pie, however, was so good, that we ended up eating it over the course of 30 minutes...the pictures show the process of the heavenly moment (including a pic when we had to divide the pies in half because we both wanted to savor every bite that we could, lol)! |
 |
A party that we found in the church before attending a district meeting. (We always tend to find the fiestas;))
|
I love you all, but please make good choices;D
