Well, it's been a pretty good week here in Guadalupe. hot as usual, and with mosquitos. These last few days have been way better. We had a good companionship inventory on Thursday, got some feelings out, and ever since we have been talking all day and having a great time! Hna Lezano speaks really good English and wants to learn more, so we've been speaking English from 5pm-7. It's fun and sometimes she says funny stuff.
Wednesday
we were walking down the street and someone yelled 'hermana!' from the other
side. I turned and saw a lady who I knew, but I couldn't remember who it was.
then as she ran across the street I realized it was Susana, a less active we
were teaching in Cajamarca!! I had forgotten that she's from Guadalupe. She was
here visiting her parents. but it sounds like she's active in Cajamarca! It was
so great to see her, but that was literally the only day I didn't have my
camera, so no picture :(
Thursday
our terma (the thing that makes the water hot in the shower) quit working so
we've been showering with ice cold water....BUT. we finally had a lesson with
MariaJose, Raul and Betty's daughter, and she is awesome!! She wants to get baptized
after her quinceñera (August 4...) but we asked her to pray about an earlier
date. She really knows that the church is true and loves going to church and
seminary.
Then
on Saturday we had a lesson with Maribet, her mom is inactive, but her cousins
are super active so she's been going to church with them. We taught the
restoration and Book of Mormon this week, and she said that while we were
talking about the Book of Mormon, she got a really calm and peaceful feeling
and thinks that was her answer! She's going to read the Book of Mormon and
continue to pray, but we set a baptismal date for June 10. She's awesome, and
we're excited to keep teaching her.
Subject
line brought to you by Vania, Betty's niece who we were teaching. We had a
great first lesson two weeks ago and had high hopes, and even set a baptismal
date. Then we went on Wednesday and taught about the Book of Mormon. We asked
her if she wanted to know if it was true and she said no...thinking she had
misunderstood the question, we asked again. and she said no, and that she
didn't want to learn anything else.......................................ouch.
Usually WE drop people, but occasionally they drop us. It's never been so
directly though. Usually people just say they don't have time, but she was
pretty direct. But we keep moving forward! (:
That's why I'm here! To preach repentance to the people of Peru
Trujillo Norte and be able to see them in the Celestial Kingdom. Being a
missionary is the best. Love you all!!
