This week was great! (maybe not as good as Mexico, but ya know haha) just kidding, i'm probably just as tan as you guys so its fine :)
Last pday we had a big Thanksgiving dinner as a zone at pres Rodriguez´s house. It was probably the best food i've had since i've been here. We ate a pollopavo, soo like chicken and turkey mixed together, idk how that works but it was goooood! We finally finished up our dental trip this week, thank heavens. it was actually a lot of fun and I learned a lot of new medical terms in spanish haha. I for sure dont want to be a dentist though....peruvian teeth did it for me.
On Thursday President invited us and the office elders over to the mission home for Thanksgiving dinner. It was just like home. We got there and Pres was in the kitchen making some stuffing and yummy food so we got to help. Some of his chidlren were visiting from the states so we got to know them and play with his grandkids. The elder and president watched the football game while we played cards. It was weird. i dont even know if thats alowed but that just shows how chill president is haha. It was alot of fun. The best part was the pumpkin pie. yummmmm !!!!
I wanted to share a cool experience that happened this week. We have been teaching an old man named Camilo, I think i told you guys about him, but he is the most hard hearted person i have ever met. SO hard to teach, but we´`are still going strong haha. Well on Saturday we decided to take a member with us, when we walked in Camilo literally slapped the member in the face. Funniest and most horrible thing ever. But we decided to go on with the lesson, which is always a battle, and when we were kneeling down to pray at the end, I was praying really hard that He would give me a sign that we needed to return. I was so sure that I was done but somethign keeps telling us to go back. Well when we walked out of the door the very first thing that I saw was the North star. But it looked different than I have ever seen it. It was huge and really bright and flickering. I couldnt stop staring at it. It was such an immediate and cool answer to my prayers. Keep camilo in your prayers.:)
This week I have been studying a little bit about the Saviors birth, I LOVE the feeling Christmas brings. Idk if you guys have seen the new video that came out but i will put the link in. I encourage you all to watch it.
Hope you guys have a great week! talk to you soon.
