Let´s start from the beginning, last p day we went to the pench and slept, made hot dogs, and played a game that involves throwing a tennis ball into a large plastic cup. It was pretty fun, but really hard.
We had a district meeting like normal, and this peruvian elder, Elder Mañuíco, made us a peruvian dish for lunch. It was way good. Some members also gave us some pizza so we ate that, too. I took some photos of that so I´ll send them.
We did some intercambios this week, I went with a new Elder named Elder Hale, from Utah. We taught a bunch of lessons. We went to this investigators house named Ruben, and taught him and his friend. Well at the end of the lesson Ruben pulled out a HUGE spider that they found in the grape fields... it was a tarantula. ( i don´t know if that´s spelled right.) Everyone started freaking out but we stayed calm. Boom. We found 12 new investigators in one day.
On Saturday we had Capilla Abierta round 2 in none other than Retiro. It was pretty good, pretty normal. Towards the end of the evening I went with Elder Oveson, (the companion of Elder Hale, who are currently in Retiro) and visited Pablo, the dude we baptized like forever ago. I had heard he had been falling back into old habits (sigh) so we went to visit him. He seemed pretty well. I invited him to remember his feelings in his baptism and do his best in the future. That was fun.
Fun story, the other day I was just minding my own business on my bike, and I got a really bad bloody nose and it totally stained my tie, dangit. But then I remembered that, like the atonement, even the worst stains can be cleaned. So yeah.
That´s it for this week. On a more serious note, just remember the truthfulness of the gospel and the Book of Mormon. In every dispensation, people have rejected the prophets, and the trend continues.... people are rejecting our latter day prophet. Like the primary song says, ´If you don´t believe it, go and watch the news´ . Remember to feed your testimony, because if your testimony isn´t growing, what is it doing?
Have a good week!!
Love,
Elder Anderson
