2 MORE BAPTISMS, but i dont have my camera with me so i cant send the pics today, sorry. We had to go to Plaza Vea this morning and buy all the food for today, so i forgot to bring everything.
The baptisms were great though, we completed a family so they now have the goal to go to the temple in a little less than a year. We are so happy for them, and if im in the city then ill go to their sealing! The baptisms was at 830 though, so we didnt get home until 950, but we broke that rule for a good purpose i believe. What happened was that we combined 2 other baptisms with ours at the last second, so that is why we were so late. But the baptism was great and very spiritual, the only bad thing was when an investigator answered her phone during the closing prayer and talked on her phone through the whole prayer. We strung her up by her thumbs afterwards, to be an example of course haha.
I am doing great, no more problems with the kidney stones! Not a great experience and not one i would recomend to the world haha. DRINK WATER! The area is looking good, but i do think that they are going to close the area at the end of this change because we have 4 missionaries in this ward and were losing a ton this change. But ill keep working like i dont know that haha. I got a call from my last companion telling me that they baptised this family that i left there, so that really pumped me up. I was so happy to hear that. I do hope that ill be able to see her sometime soon too to personally congratulate her.
Nothing really else has happened here, just trying to keep my companion from being trunky, which takes some great effort haha. The other companionship in our house are fighting a lot, especially from one elder that is picking fights with us too. And for no reason, this morning he started a fight with us about how my companion has more shampoo in his bottle than this angry elder. Odd, i know, but it is what it is.
I am happy and healthy and enjoying my time here. I bought some shoes this last week, the only pair in Peru that is my size, a little expensive but i dont have pday shoes, only my tracting shoes. But they are great and will last me the mission. I could use some toothpaste from Dr. Rule, the procrest please, and pepto bismal pills if you could. That would be the best. Enjoy your weeks and remember that America is great because it has running water in the houses.
Love
