Piojos...

Hey everyone! Well let's see here... we should start off with the good and juicy stuff. Well, Sunday was kinda crazy. We went to this choir thing that the stake center here does, but it really isn't a church activity, just a lot of different choirs from all over Posadas came and sang christmas songs. It was really cool and they were all so good!!! (that is not the crazy thing) but when we were going back home to our pension, we had to drop a different Hermana off at a different pension and then we had to go and get on the last colectivo of the night. That was the craziest colectivo of the whole day!!! We started off with 4 drunk guys and then one started to get mad at the driver for something that happened, then the police came and took him off and then other people started yelling and saying how he didn't do anything. So then he came back on and we started moving again. Then these three other drunk guys started cheering him on and then the other came to the back of the colectivo with the other three and started yelling just really weird stuff like they were going to fight or something. Then after more time, one of the drunk people started dancing on the bus... it was so funny and I was trying so hard not to laugh! But then we finally got to our pension and I have never been so happy! Another thing that happened was on Monday (since it was transfers we have to work Monday if we don't travel to our new area and then have p-day Tuesday) my companion was complaining about her head itching for a really long time and then finally after like two weeks or so later, she is like "Hermana, it is now starting to hurt!" So we called the president's wife and she told us that she probably has lice... and so we went and bought the stuff to kill the lice (piojos) and we went through the whole process of getting it out, but then I had her check me because she has had it for a really long time and it turned out she gave me lice too.. so then I had to go through the process as well and we literally spent our whole Monday afternoon getting rid of the lice and cleaning all our stuff... But what a great week really, with tons of fun stuff going on! Literally I can see the Lord helping us in His work and protecting us in the streets and it makes me realize that I really am never alone in this time or in this time of my life and not only for me but it is for everyone in the world our loving Heavenly Father is always here with us helping us through our days! I love you all so much and hope that you have a good week! one foto of us on the colectivo with the 4 drunks, one of our thanksgivings and two old ones one from the baptism and when we cleaned it and the other is when it rained and my foot got covered in the red mud.

1 Month until General Conference

Yay we had a baptism this week por fin!!!!!!! It was so good, the family came with 8/14 of their kids so that was good!!! and the kids were so happy to get baptized! We also had two of the young men who are 16 years old baptize them. It was really cute to see them have their first baptism. Other than that, like always, not much happened. We had a tranquila semana and for two days I was with a different hermana. We had a great time together and we made brownies which was my first time in the mission. They were so good!!!! Remember that we are one month away from general conference and so we have a little time to prepare!!!! But how awesome it is to learn more about Joseph Smith and his story and how important it is to know that through Joseph Smith, we have the church of Jesus Christ again on the earth and the chance to have the gospel in our lives and feel this happiness that it brings into our lives! Love you all and hope that you all have a great week and make good decision...

Happy New Year ya'll!!!!!! This week was really good! Well, in some ways. First of all, New Years Day was just a chill day, we didn't do anything, just hung out with other missionaries and played games and watched movies. It was really fun! Other than that, there was only one other thing that really happened on Saturday, which was really kinda funny. So what happened is that this day was kinda hard for us because we didn't really feel very good, but we had so many people that yelled at us when we were in the street. Lots of members from other places, but the funniest one was when this drunk guy yelled at us and said "hermanas, when are you going to come and visit me?" and he crossed the street to come and talk to us, which we did, and he said that it was really hard to read our names and that they were in English so he didn't understand our names, but then he said that he wanted a book so we gave him a folleto and then he told us to give him one of our chu...

Transfers!

Hey everyone, this week was kinda crazy! It was my last week in my first area, Italia Centro.. RIP... but now I´m in a new area called San Martin (Misiones, Posadas) it is so cool and way different than my first area. This place has red dirt, hills, and trees. So it's way different than what I ́m used to, but I know that it will be really good for me, and that God has prepared this place and the people for me and my companion. Before I actually came to this area, in my older area, I ran into a tree... I thought you might like to know that. The only tree in Formosa, and I happened to run into it. But I ́m fine, I just have a little mark not too noticeable, but I'll send a picture. My new companion ́s name is Hermana Rowlings and she is from Nebraska. She only has for months left in the mission, so this will probably end up being her last area, so I have no idea how long I will be here. My companion and I are both new to the area so we are going to have a fun time figuring ev...
