We have been free from dumb quarantine this whole week and it's been pretty great.
Here's a couple things that happened...
Edgar and his girls-They invited us over for dinner and made MOLE!!!!!!! That is literally my favorite dish they make down here. My comp was not a fan and told me all about how gross it was when we left...but I ignored her hahaha No one can change my mind about mole and rice with Tortillas. They also made a super yummy soup full of vegetables and potatoes. Sooo yummy!!!!!!! We were finally able to actually meet his daughters. And now we're all best friends haha. And he came to church again. He also told us in an earlier lesson that he told his girls he wants to be baptized into the church sometime in the future?!?! We were so happy when we left his house. Blessings guys. I'm tellin ya.
Food bank-We went to the food bank a couple times with the elders this week and we hustled and got literally everything done super fast. Haha I love that place so much. The ladies see us walk in and just wave us back.
Eidy and Rocio- Ahhhhh I loves these people!! So Rocio is suppose to get married to Adolfo before he gets baptized next month. She has been coming to church for literally ever. And Eidy is her daughter. She's 12 and super sassy. But Rocio doesn't know like any English so if Eidy wants to say something about her mom she'll say it in English then Rocio will laugh and look at us and say que les dijo?? So we'll translate. It's hilarious. They love us haha. And they came to church!!!!
Youth activity! - We had another mutual activity with the 5 youth we have. KICKBALL! But that was really fun. We have to start earlier because it gets really dark really quick after the sun sets. Our team destroyed the other team. I got a homerun and almost a grand slam to finish it off. My comp was surprised but...obviously my parents taught me well 😂
Enjoy some of his quotes from this week
"They're gonna de fund the police...who you gonna call?? A social worker? You can't do nothing with a booklet and pen."
*neighbor comes buy with a watermelon
"they asked if I wanted a watermelon...no I don't want no watermelon. What I want are those cookies!!
Don't forget the chocolate chips
Yeah she make those cookies for a living...and they goooood"
"Peace and love, peace and love ahh I like them good ol days...it was all about peace and love" *holding peace signs up 😂
Me: Okay your turn to say the prayer
Carlos: okay
*us waiting in silence for a sec
Me: are you going to say it?
Carlos: What?! I just said it last time...this is a conspiracy
*us dying of laughter
Yeah this week was awesome and super fast like always.
But I know for a fact Jesus Christ had a church and it has been restored. We have a living day Prophet because we have a loving God who wants his children to have direction in our lives. I also know that Temples are a house of God and a place where the spirit dwells. That also can be compared to our bodies. We are temples where the spirit can dwell. We need to be making the right choices for ourselves in order to have the companionship of the Holy Ghost with us always. It's a such an amazing gift from God.
I love you guys. Hope you kill it this week.
Stay 2 legit 2 quit.
Con todo mi amor,
Hermana Darling
