This week was pretty good, yet normal.
Monday night, that investigator of Dalton
and Bello
called me and I got to see what she wanted!
She asked me all sorts of questions like my age and if I was searching
for someone, and all that jazz. Im not
sure if she was wanting to hook up with me or hook me up with her younger
sister (more probable) but it was super weird!
I straight up said we dont search that stuff as missionaries and
stuff. Why is this happening to me
lately?!
Tuesday we met with [two of] our investigators and told them
if they don't come to church, we're not teaching them anymore. The ultimatum. And they didnt come so BUMMER!
Wednesday i started out the day feeling really bummed out
and stressed but i felt better when we left the house and helped some people
move into their house on the floor below us.
We lifted all sorts of things, and it made me feel good to help. They said God sent them 2 angels to help them
out! Woop!
Thursday we had to go to Cali for a mini zone meeting where they told
us about the choir we're gonna sing in on the 12th of July for the 40 year
celebration of the mission for return missionaries. It should be cool, a member in Cali wrote a special
mission hymn!
Friday was slow work-wise due to the game of Colombia vs. Argentina . No one let us in that day! Even our ward mission leader canceled correlation
for it! It was pretty intense though
from what i got to see in the streets.
It went 0,0 the whole game and went into penalty kicks. Colombia lost though. BUMMER!
But Friday i gave my first baptismal interviews to Dalton
and Bello 's
investigators Juan David and Kevin!
(they were mine for 3 weeks too haha).
But they both passed and Kevin asked me to baptize him! I guess i did something right those 3 weeks
hahaha.
Saturday we went to the chapel early to clean it all up and
get it spick and span for the baptism!
Afterwards, me and Yujra went out searching people out in an area we
dont hit too much. We found quite a few
people including a pentecostal who demanded us all sorts of things in the name
of Jesus Christ. he was strange. But that night we had the baptisms! It was a nice service. All the rad families from the ward came to
support and made them feel like theyre part of a big new family! Yay baptisms!
Sunday was super long.
We had to go to Cali
for choir practice and were there from 3:30 to 8. I was tuckered out! Lots of singing!
Concerning my new companion Yujra, he's proving to be quite
a challenge. He is CONSTANTLY doing
every little thing possible to bother me.
examples being he turns off the light at night in the room where i write
in my journal, he pulls my arm hairs, he pulls my tie, he pulls my chair out
from under me when i go to sit, he puts my jam in the freezer, he hides my
things etc etc. And this is
CONSTANT! Ill be surprised if i dont go crazy by the
end of this transfer. So just pray for
me and him please haha,
Today i just hung out in the apartment and went to a few
places with Dalton . Love you all!
