And this has been another long week. it started off good, then on tuesday night we were finishing contacting, and we got robbed...again! this time he took my watch, and he tried to take my bag but i didn't let him. we went back to the room and called president, and we got another emergency transfer, but this time he split elder romrell and i up, so now i'm with elder goff in chiclayo central. i have to admit, it has been a huge blessing in my life. my new area is amazing, the people are wonderful, the area is so much nicer, and we have 3 baptisms! one on saturday, and 2 on october 17! i'm so excited! my new comp is so cool too, he´s from highland, utah so that helps a bit.
And my appartments a lot nicer too, we actually have hot water, and the space is tons bigger. and our penson is the best, her food is amazing, and her son who is like mid 40´s eats and talks to us, and he is flippin awesome. i will get you a picture of them next week, along with my comp. i do miss elder romrell but i can tell my new comp and i are going to get along just fine, we always play monopoly after we plan, and last night we stayed up telling dumb jokes, so its going to be a fun couple months with him.
haha and one of our investigatores who is getting baptized always gives us food when we stop by, the first time was inka kola and soda crackers, and the second time was some amazing sandwiches. yesterday we gave a blessing to this old sick lady, and i had the privledge to do the annointing of the oil...that's right in spanish. it was such a amazing experience, and the spirit was sooo strong.
we were teaching another less active about temples and family history work, and when i was talking about family history, i could feel that grandma was there too. and we watched a video about temples and it showed the st george temple, ah it was so hard to see that.
and today for p day we went into town to this outside mall, and it was so packed, it reminded me of the cruises to mexico seeing all the shops around and people coming up to you trying to sell you stuff. we just bought some stuff we needed, and we went to this restraunt, oh...my....gosh, it was soo good! we got hamburgers....peruvian hamburgers, and they are soo much better than american hamburgers. they brought it out, and it had about 30 huge french fries, and the hamburger was huge too. it had two peruvian meat patties, a fried egg, and bacon...that's right bacon! oh my, and it had this spicy peruvian sauce that made it ten times better. then we got ice cream which was a bad idea cause we were already stuffed, and the ice cream was huge and amazing too. so now i think i have diabetes for life after that meal. and it was only 10 soles!
so my new area is amazing, and i know i'm going to be safe in this area. so that was my week, i hope you guys have an amazing week too! here are some pictures of my new apartment and stuff like that. i love you guys so much!!
