The first wednesday of the year!! Feliz Año Nuevo!!
Well this week has been a long one because of the holidays.
Thursday we had to help Andreina find an outfit for her baptism because she hadn´t found one yet and nothing was going to be open on friday so we did that in the morning and then we got a phone call from the assistants. Saying, you guys are going to be a trio now and she is coming later today. So that is a big change. Our house isn´t big in the first place pretty small for two people but now it is packed we cannot fit one more person in this house there is absolutley no more space. Anyways, her name is Hermana Calderón. She is from the Dominican Republic from Santo Domingo. She has 11 months on the mission and things have been good. Then we ended up going to the house of Familia Vega to have at lest one lesson. Then we went to the house of Familia Bretón for dinner and familia Vega came too. It was a fun time. Then we went to the church for the party that bishop put together at the last second. We were going to eat Sancocho but they didn´t start til later. They had music and stuff and so we went home. We made our fire on the roof again. Not as big as last year when we burnt the duck. It was fun we coud see the fireworks in all directions.
Friday we went to the church to make lunch because we now know how to turn the oven on so we can use it. And we watched a movie. Again it was pretty much dead hear. No cars. Silence. Really creepy. But it was ok. When we left to proselyte we had to wait a good amount of time for a gwawa to pass and then when we got there she wasn´t there but she said she was going to and we went to go cross the road to get ride back and she was getting off a gwawa to come home. So we ended up having a lesson with Milagros. Then we miraculously were able to have a lesson with Albania. Who never answers her phone and always seems really grumpy. But it was a good lesson. She didn´t want us to leave. Then we went to Familia Bretóns house again becasue we didn´t have anywhere else to go that wasn´t super far away and dangerous to get to.
Early saturday morning we got up and went to a breakfast of the releif society it started at 7 there weren´t very many people but it was ok we got hot chocolate. We were finally able to have a lesson with Charly we almost didn´t becasue he wasn´t home when we were there and we went to leave and they came driving up. then we taught an investigator of the elders that wants us hermanas to continue teaching. She is a sweet lady. and then we surprised attacked a lady who wants to be taught but is always super busy. It was a good lesson.
SUNDAY!! The BAPTISM OF ANDREINA!!! We got the baptism font filled on saturday night and had it checked this morning and there were problems so the elders and some members were filling it some more with buckets. There were a good number of people who showed up for her baptism at 7 in the morning on a fast sunday. Then after chcurch we had lunch at the familia Bretóns house and we surprised Hermana Quesada because it was her birthday. I love the familiy Bretón they are awesome. Then we had one lesson with Ámbar and we are going to see who can finish the Book of Mormon first. I´m so gonna win.
Monday we helped get rid of a lot of stuff in the house of familia vega and then we had a lesson in a house really far away the family is members and they have a lot of children who want to learn and other people. It was fun. then we ended the day with a NDH in the house of Idelfonso and Judelka. It was a good one we shared the videos of the Models of light from Elder Bednar.
Tuesday we did weekly planning because they changed the Zone meeting to thurday and then we had two lesson and we had to have Hermana Bretón come and save us becasue the rutas were not passing Hermana Calderon can´t walk far distances. So I am grateful for her. I am sure she did it becasue her daughter was with us. I would have never thought to call and have her help us we would have just walked.
Today we went to the doctors at the mission home and then we met up with the elders at the monument and I finally wnt up. And then we went to lunch and then after lunch we ran to the office so that I could call in the doctors in SL to answer questions and then we came back to the house and chilled for a few and now we are here.
Hopefully we can get back to normal here soon. Hope ya´ll are good.

Todo Bien!!!
