Im pretty sure this is my last full week in remansito but i wont know until next monday.. crazy to think about... but heres what happened last week...
Lunes: im pretty sure i already told you what happenend today in the last one... so...
Martes: today we went on a division.. kinda we left
the house as a thresssome, with one of the zone leaders... he had to go
take care of some stuff for the zone on the computers and that is when
we were able to write you guys.. his name is elder Zilm.. he is the man.
After our compouter time we headed out and we were able to see the our
zone leader doesnt take no for an answer.. he is very striaht foreward
and he almost walked into someones house, telling them that he wouldnt
lave until they shared with us or told us they were coming to church,
they even told us that there life is between them and god and his answer
was.. well you got three representatives of jesus christ on the earth
today right here how can we help you... it was crazy and a learning
expierence to learn how to work with the stubborn ones.. i don think ill
be picking up that style as a habbit though.. time will tell. we also
were able to get ariel and mercedes ar newly weeds to start reading so
that was great, after that we ate some noodles at our house with the
other remansito elders and called it a nigh, we got zone meeting
tomorrow and interviews with president so that should be a fun one!
Miercoles: started the day today with a different
style of zone meeting. we had three differeent stations we went to to
learn different things, and the interview with president. It was a good
one ecspeacially my interview. The main thing that we talked about was
the recent convert lorena that we baptized. I told him that she has a
computer and that we want to show her how to do family history work, but
the rule book says we need his permission to do so. So i asked and he
said it would be better, and that he would allow us to go with her and
her husband to the temple, take a little tour of the outside, adn the go
to the family history center with them so that the whole family could
do it. Talk about one of the greatest ideas ever!!!! so that should be
fun. then we got out of there and headed back to remansito.. i did also
get to take some money out.. i shouldnt need to take anything out for a
while. our lunch got cancelled and changed to a dinner so we ate some
empanadas and then headed out to teach. super hot today! but we were
able to get some good lessons in... the highlight would be how serious
one of the reactivating families is about going to the templ.. all are
on board, and only the husband has one foot in.. so we are gonna keep
working with him but we are feeling good about it, then we taught some
other people and headed to dinner, it was hamburgers and i ate three!
they were awesome!! we went back home stuffed and called it a night.
Jueves: i wole aup at about 5 and heard my comp
throwing up in the bathroom.. when he came back in the room i asked if
he was ok and if i could help and he said that he was gonna try to sleep
it off but he would let me know.. so i had a lonely morning until about
10 oclcok. then he woke up and called the mission nurse and deceide
that we wouldnt be eaving that day because he was to sick. so i took
adavantage of the situation and i got some studying in.. i read some of
the book of mormon, jesus the christ, and all of genisis in the spanish
bible.. that was fun.. we did get visited by the other remansito elders
twice because we needed mediine and my comp couldnt make it to the
pharmacy.. so that was fun.. one of the longer days of the mission.
Viernes: almost a carbon copy of thursday... my comp
woke up not feeling much better.. so back to the books.. i read from
the same collection but this time read all of exodus and half of
leviticus.. its so crazy the law of moises in the bible!! i like the
book of mormon a little more.. not so strict persay hahah. but nothing
exctining to report....
Sabado: Today there was a spark of hope.. we did our
studies left the house.. visited lorena and presented the temple plan
who told us that she wants to do iut but that her husband wouldnt be
home until monday and that she would ask him then.. so fingers crossed
there. Then we ent to lunch and ate good. The two daughters there had
just gotten back from there EFy things they had in paraguay.. its a week
long too. and they said it was the best thing ever, so that was cool to
here about.. the one expirince ill share with you that they had was
that a 14 year old girl started dancing with a fan because she claimed
the holy ghost told her to, and her hair got causght in it and they had
to cut her hair off.. then a little latter in the week the same girl
said to her male conselor that the holy ghost told her that whe has to
marry him.. sounds like a lot of the spirit there right hahah.. thought
you guys would enjoy those stories!! after lunch we went hoe and elder
worsham did not feel good.. so we called it a day.. ui started y fast
and then finsihed leviticus and read some more form the other church
books. Also i thought id let you know we are on three days without water
so thats just super fun!
Domingo: well worsham s starting to feel better but
we went to church like normal.. we had 61 people there, i helped pass
the sacrament.. mom you would love the sizeof bread (hot dog buns) they
break down here haha. we had 5 less actives there and 1 investigator.. a
huge blessing for how little we were ablew to leave the house! after we
were able to get some good work in too. We taught a less active girl
and her boyfriend, and he looks pretty promising, we also finnaly got
through to a couple that needs to get married and the lady needs to get
baptized.. so that was super awesome.. it is a littl tough that these
little success are coming right at the end of changes because im almost
certain that im out of remansito.. no garauntee, but i can just feel
it... we ended the week good, and our numbers werent bad due to the
circumstances we had.
Lunes: to day has been a good one.. i got my self my
tapa for my little hymn book and i love it! its also the 5th day with
out water.. so i smell delish!! other than that we went and ate lo mito
arabe for lunch with a bunch of elders and then swung by the office so
that was super good, then we came to the ciber to write you guys!!
Well thats been my week.. a little stressful because
i wanted to head out and work, but i did get some good rest and reading
in while my comp recovered so theres not much i can do about it.. im
pretty sure this is my last full week here.. ill let you know whats
happening next week... also this internet cafe has been playing bruno
mars the whole time ive been here...
Love you all so much, hope all is well and that you guys are doing great!!
Love ya
Elder Jace Gummersall
