This week was a
different one. Some good and some bad. Let’s start with interesting though.
This city is like my last area. Some of the roads are
paved but others are cobblestone. It’s really quite strange to walk on
cobblestone. The better thing is no one sleeps on the streets
here. So that’s better to walk the streets and not wonder if someone is
dead......
Today I got emails from Friends, my uncle, both
grammas, my sis, and my cousin! I HAD NO IDEA SHE WAS THINKING ABOUT A
MISSION!!!!! I was happy to hear that
she got her call to Peru! :}
Today I'm getting a haircut. AND I found a lady in
the ward that does hair so we are going there today! Super excited! We cleaned
house a lot before we came here... So that took time. We don’t have time today
to do any sight-seeing or hiking. We usually shop every Monday so probably
after my haircut we'll get groceries. We’ve eaten at....... MCDONALDS!!!!!!!! I
get ice cream sometimes too when I'm feeling down. The menu is about the same as
in the US but WAY more expensive. Like 10 bucks.... So we've only eaten there
once.
Lessons this week
were just about the same. We have a baptismal date for A. He is a guy who is
26 and he really wants to change his life. So we hope that he can stop drinking
tea and coffee. Our baptism is scheduled for March 7th but we are gonna change
it to the 14th because we have stake conference.
We had exchanges
with the zone leaders this week and that was difficult. One of them kinda told me that I didn’t speak very well
and that was discouraging but oh well.
As for poverty
here. There isnt much here. There is like one bairro that is poor. Other then
that its all like average in the states. So thats nice. It feels a little
closer to home.
I got this
picture today next to our lan house and I thought I would look super British
because of the umbrella.
So one of my watches broke this week and I lost my
Pearl of great price...... I was super bummed. I'm gonna get a new watch today
but I cant replace that Pearl I received the 1st time I went to the
temple. I have a spare watch. My one from gram, but I want one with the date.
So with the money that gram sent me I'm gonna get a new one.
Other then that I
didnt have too many spiritual experiences this week. Kind os a bummer week. But
oh well. Until next time,
and I hope all of you have great weeks!
Love you guys,
Elder George
