Hey ya´ll!!
Things are great here. Working hard as always.
Friday, yep a supposed hurricane went past. A member called us in the morning saying to prepare so we went to the store and got a few things not really believing. And then we got calls later in the afternoon from our leaders to not leave the house because it was dangerous, so we didn´t. The storm was really just a storm. Wind, rain, thunder. Nothing to horrible. We watched a movie, Fireproof. We were really bored. It was a good thing that is was just that day that it tormed because didn´t have any drinking water in our house. OOPS!!
The next day, Saturday we had a FHE with some members and less actives. It was a good time. we shared a parable that I can´t remember and played a really silly game. Then we walked home.
Sunday during church the elders got a call that their investigator needed help washing her uniform for work for the next day and she couldn´t do it becasue she and her husband were sick. So us and the elders went and washed all their dirty clothes and did their dishes and cleaned their house. We finished washing the clothes and had them out to dry and it started to rain so we helped bring them back in but the rain didn´t last for long but still it was kind of funny.
Monday we had a zone meeting and I gave my first training in a zone meeting. The title of my theme that the Zone Leaders gave me was. Am I taking responsibility for my efforts without blaming other? It was kind of hard to plan for but I talked about how everything we do is done with our agency and we need to be accountable for the things we do because in the end that is how it will be when we are judged by Christ. Did you do all you could? YOU, not well your companion didn´t do this so it didn´t happen, YOU. After we went to McDonalds and with your recepit you could get your name put on a Coca-Cola bottle so we all did with our last names on it. I am going to keep mine made if I get to go to the beach put sand in it or something. We also had exchanges and I stayed in Villa Olga with Hermana Zegarra. She is from Peru and so sweet. We had a good successful day. We had a FHE and it was way fun. Then we walked home and we were really far away and we had a big group so we all wouldn´t have fit into a taxi so we all walked together and it took about 30 to 45 minutes.
Tuesday we had meetings with the ward and we are really trying to get the ward to get some activites going to get people doing things and develop more unity among the members.
If you got any ideas for ward activities please share any and all.
Wednesday we got up early and went to an area called Sabaneta, one of hermana Salazar´s old areas to say good bye to her people there. I stayed with a member, named Luchi, for about 4 hours. We talked and studied. She was really sweet. Then we ate and visited a few more people. Went to go write before we had to go catch the Gwawa to come back to Santiago, but the power went out.
So here I am writing today!!
