Week 35/76 Dia De La Madre And Photoshop

This week feels like it happened months ago, bueno, we had a blitz on tuesday and got to eat these completo like burgers. 

We started out the week really well with some good visits, we had a lot of good food, and a beautiful sky every night, but we don't have any friends progressing which is sad. 

But we have been eating really healthy, saw cute cats, had an encounter with a spider, and survived the week running out of money! 

We haven't really been doing much. You guys probably have better stories than I do for this week, so let me know. 
Our friend Valentina is all but ready to be baptized, but her mom wants to wait until they move to Utah in November, so that is really disappointing. 

We didn't have any amigos come to church, actually barely anyone came to church because it was mothers day, but me and my companion both spoke and I think it went pretty well. Even with our branch president throwing us for a loop and announcing that I would be speaking first, when the message from the 1st councilor clearly said Hermana Condori would be first. 

The elders quorum had a cute little presentation after church for the moms, but because only 5 moms were there and because we're going to be moms one day, we got treats too! 

Let's take a moment to appreciate that I only spent 6 hours on a bus this past week, even though it's looking like we will be living bus to bus this coming week, we are staying positive! 

The only other highlight of my week was probably figuring out how to use canva as a makeshift photoshop so we could express in picture form what it's like in yungay, and take a trip to the beach with my mom, grandma, and great grandma. 

I hope you all had a great mothers day!

Week 75/76 White And Ready To Harvest

I had the opportunity to teach about the Restoration and the Book of Mormon in english for the first time this week!  I asked them if they assist another church, when I was trying to ask if they attend another church and a few other spanish words slipped in, but it went well and they agreed to read 3rd Nephi!   We had 2 intercambios this week. With hermana Toro and hermana Guevara. I always learn so much and enjoy getting to know the hermanas!  We also laugh a bunch and become good friends!  We picked golden berries and had fresh golden berry juice for lunch. We also ate some pastries like the ones from Brave and Hermana Ortiz told me that in spanish they don't have a scottish accent. We had probably the worst lunch of my mission this week. Cold tuna with cheese and onions on top. I didn't mind seafood before, but that was asqueroso!  On Thursday we were waiting for people to show up to english class (no one did) I decided to check my email, and was surprised to...

Week 12/76 Milagros Y Un Nuevo Mes

This week was so crazy, but first off thank you everyone who sends me emails. I love reading about your lives and hearing from you!  Other than that it's been adventurous.  We know this member and we visit him all the time. He's 95 years old and he's so cute. His daughter is at his house to help him and we just go talk to them and she always gives us so much food. She's so nice and we just love visiting with them. We visit these other members, Dora and Marisol, all the time. Marisol is blind but they're always super sweet and they always help me with my Spanish. I'm so grateful for all the members here.  On Wednesday we had a crazy thing happen. There was a drunk guy in his car and he was trying to talk to us and then we were like 'okay here's our pamphlet' and he was like 'get in my car come with me'. So we are trying to get away and we get in  another car with this couple and we thought they were going to drive us away but then they got out...
