Hola family!!
So Thanks for Logans email! I can't believe he's going home
so soon. Holy cow! I remember when he left!
(questions are from Moms email to Travis)
Do you guys get served a lunch by RS ladies at your zone conferences?
How often do you have them and do you have to travel far? Zone conference food is usually provided by the members. But they get
paid to do it though haha. You guys were robbed! We usually have them
once every 2 transfers. Or...4 times a year. In my area, they are held
at our own building, which is a 15 min walk. So not too far. We have the
nicest chapel in the zone haha oh yeah!
What do you eat most days? and how
often do members feed you? Glad you liked the taco seasoning - how
about the asian seasoning packets - have you tried those? are they
good?
Most days we eat empanadas. We
eat so much of them! Also pasta, pizza, rice/eggs/peas are SUPER common.
We only eat like 5 different things here haha. It gets boring! We get
pretty well fed in our area. Almost every day we have lunch. The asian
stuff was goood! We made 2 of the packets today! We have some left over
tooo delicious! My companion is lucky that I know how to cooook...haha.
What do you do each day during "siesta" time? do you still
track? During the siesta, its terrible. When you knock doors, people get super
mad at you for waking them up. I still don't have it down. The biggest
question for missionaries here, is what to do during the siesta. I knock
doors no matter what haha. People need to stop being lazy.
About Hanna´s family, members are going by to see if everything is
okay. I don't think she's allowed to come back yet, but I'm praying it will
be soon. I found out that the mom is pretty sick with some kind of
infection. Thats all I know. I´ll update you guys if I hear anything
else. But there is only 2 weeks left in the transfer!! holy cowwww!! I'm
pretty sure I'm out too. SO time to start packing. haha.
The baptism
didn't happen unfortunately. We´re hoping for this weekend. It didn't
happen because Rosa didn't know if she would have to travel to Bahia Blanca. Her ex husband is dying from something and he wants to see his
kids before he passes away. She still wants to get baptized no matter
what, so its all good. Although her current husband is kind of being
lame. He told me that he doesn't like that we come over so often...lame.
He´s dumb haha. The members are being really friendly with Rosa. She
feels super welcome at church and somewhat has friends now.
We´re kind of having a hard time finding new people to teach... its
hard! Our district leader keeps giving us crap for it and its getting
really annoying. We are trying really hard!! I just don't know whats
going on. Everyone is having a hard time right now. I swear that its
something in the air or the weather haha.
So today...something funny happened. First of all, P-day time is
sacred and you have to use every second of it. Our DL came over to our
house this morning during our comp study. I was like what the heck? His
comp is American and I´m pretty good friends with him so he told me what
was happening. Apparently as a house, we were all going to talk about
what we're doing wrong and why were not being successful. AKA a
confession session about your disobedience...LAME. haha When I heard
this, I was like. "Companion..were leaving right at 10. (because p-day
starts at 10). No one has officially told us anything." The person who
told me, said that we should probably leave and turn off out phone haha.
So we left out of the house right at 10, super fast and super sneaky!
It was awesome. About 5 minutes later, we got a phone call saying that
we should probably come back so we can do this confession session. (that
we supposedly didn't know about) I just told him that look, its p-day now
and were already on our way to Walmart. We´re not coming back. He got
kind of mad haha. But I so told him off. It was awesome. Our district
leader right now kinda sucks haha. All he does is get mad at us. Welll
yup! There's a little story for ya. haha. Well I gotta run! I love you
guys!!!! Chou Chou!!
