Hola familia y amigos!
This week went by super fast and it was super crazy and super hot.
Tuesday was awesome, our investigadores Dionicio and Wendy got
married! They got married in the church at 4 pm and then had a party
at 7pm,and they had cake at the party. They realized they didn't have a knife to
cut the cake so I ran back to the house and carried a giant knife to
the church in a plastic bag!haha. It was awesome, they were all so happy.
Then Wednesday was just a whole lot of knocking doors, we had some success but we really just ended up walking all over. Then Thursday was cool, we were contacting and I saw this guy with a make shift bench press, so my comp and I went over, asked if I could bench and then contacted with this 20 year old guy and his girlfriend about the word of wisdom and we have a date to go back and teach them! Definitely one of the most fun ways i've contacted in the mission. Then Friday I had an Intercambio with Elder Manay which was alright, all our lecciones fell through so we ended up walking around a lot but we ended up having one really good leccion with a young kid that seemed pretty interested. Then Saturday was insane. First off we find this absolutely huge insect that looks like it should have died with the Dinos but is here in the Amazon rainforest and we named it Nelson(I'lltry and send a picture). We had the baptisms of Dionicio and his family planned but we get a call at 9 in the morning that there isn't any water in the church, short story short we literally ran around all day trying to fix it, we even went to the firefighters here and asked if they could fill it for us, we were going to have them do it until we got a call that the branch president had fixed the problem! We ended up being able to have the bapstisms and it was awesome! Later that night we found out that Wendy's Dad died the night before and that they almost were not going to be able to make it, so that was really sad. Then Sunday came and we get to church and Dionicio and Wendy weren't there, so they didn't get confirmed. They showed up after sacrament meeting because they had some problems with people trying to take some of Wendy's Dads stuff and the police showed up. They're going through a really had time right now but their testimonies are super strong and they're going to get confirmed this Sunday!
Then today we got up, played some futbol and Basketball, then we had this less active kid cut our hair, trying to get him active again. Then we went to Brasil to find this stuff called ECCO which is called Mormon Coffee because it tastes just like coffee but doesn't have any caffeine in it. We also sat in a bank for like an hour to pay a light bill! That was about it for this week, it is extremely hot here in Leticia it's like over 90 every day and it's super humid, but I love it so far! Also later tonight we're going to buy a giant worm called Mojojoi and eat it alive which sounds pretty fun I'll make sure to get a video of that for you guys! Love and miss you guys hope
you're all doing great!!
