Yet another week has gone by... AH! Super crazy fast.
So this week I lost my dignity on Tuesday...
We went to do a service in the morning cutting grass and weeds with
shovels which is always super fun. I got shown up by a fifty year old
lady with diabetes...
oh well haha. Anyways I really lost my dignity when we got home. When
we got home we found out that there was no water to shower or anything. I
was also having a bit of the runs so... I had to use a shovel and make
my own toilet... then i had to shower on
a chair in our lot with a bowl of our drinking water, soap, and a
sponge... HAHAHHAHA! I felt like i was camping haha!
Anyways about two weeks ago I got pepper
spray in a package for the dogs. Thank you momma. But... I think I`ve
sprayed myself more than I`ve sprayed the dogs... hahah! A dog will just
come up to
us barking and stuff,--I`ll whip my spray out like batman does from his
belt, spray... and nothing happens to the dog...then the wind blows it
into my eye... HAHAHA! I would be the worst mall security. I can`t even
spray a dog with pepper spray hahah!
So every week to get to know the members we
get assigned to a member`s house to eat dinner. Well this week it was
super weird. We got assigned to go to Mayerline`s house. This is a 16
year old girl
who I baptized like three months ago and it was suuuuuuuper weird. We
get to the house and there`s a table set only for four: me, my
companion, mayerline, and her dad. Her mom and her sisters ate in the
other room. The entire time I felt like her dad was trying
to set us up or something. It was terrible! I just kept thinking back
to my first date in high school. I thought that dinner was awkward, but
this one takes the cake, haha. I think we need to talk with the Relief
Society and tell them not to assign us to houses
with young women haha.
In general this week was awesome like all the
others. Noche de hermanamiento on Thursdays is going super well and
more and more people are coming! It`s all about having awesome games so
if anyone
has games in mind I`d love the ideas.
We also had an activity onSsaturday where the
organizations all danced and sang and stuff. It was awesome! We also
made a rule that to come you had to bring unperishable food. We got a
bunch…mostly
sugar, but we still got a bunch!
Next to
where we collected the food we had a whiteboard that said la caridad
nunca deja de ser. I think it`s charity never faileth in English. So I
was thinking
a lot about charity and lo and behold the next morning on Sunday they
asked me to give a talk. I didn`t have anything prepared so I just
decided to talk about charity and being nice to everyone. It ended up
pretty good. I kind of like talking in public now
and I don`t get as nervous so slang doesn`t slip out anymore haha.
Anyways, great week.Transfers are this week so we`ll see what happens. Love you all! Be charitable! Read Moroni 7 45-48
