Week 96 - Bonbon 4/15/2013
well this week was ok until conference then it was amazing i say ok
because we taught 0 lessons this week Monday we had a good meeting with
our district leaders then we had a family home evening with some of the
members behind our apartment and ate some good food then one of the
elders started to have an allergic reaction to the food we ate not good
then 2 of the other elders were laughing at him and i just thought to
myself how upset i would be with them if i wasn't so worried about the
other elder. well finally we got a ride for him to the hospital and the 2
who were joking got what they needed turns out they are allergic too
but then me and elder baker had to go to the pharmacy's at night to buy
the medicine since the hospital doesn't even keep stock of medicine they
make you go out and buy it but it was ok the only bad
thing was we were at the hospital until 1 in the morning because we
couldn't find the medicine i just remember praying to be able to stay
calm and get the things that were asked of me and everything worked out
then we came home and got to our apartment around 1:30 and i read from
the Book of Mormon then went to bed because Tuesday we had whats called
zone training meeting. in that meeting me and elder baker give a
training we prepared from the trainings given in zone leaders council so
that we can pass on information and also add things that we received as
revelation its a really good meeting but very difficult to give with 4
hours of sleep. then we went home and we were invited by the stake to
speak at a stake fireside. the fireside was for all the potential
missionaries in the stake. it was probably the coolest activity i have
ever heard of its what they call a little MTC its a 3 day
activity and they have a fireside the first two nights and they have
classes throughout the day about teaching skills and everything its so
cool and we were invited to be a part of it. we were guest speakers and
we also made musical numbers. i really enjoyed the activity and think it
would be a great activity for anywhere in the world right now with the
burst of missionaries. so that was until Thursday around noon then we
went to a baptism in the afternoon and then visited a member after for
dinner but tons of people were there so we didn't get to share just eat.
then Friday i was dehydrated so i was required to stay inside and rest
then Saturday conference and we took pictures of an apartment for the
future sister missionaries. then we ate and i now have had diarrhea
since Saturday so no work Sunday either life is getting really hard but
its ok I'm hoping to have a good week we are going to Lavezares
tonight for exchanges and hopefully we will be able to help them out my
trainee is actually assigned in this area so ill get to be with him
again it'll be fun. well i learned a lot during conference and i got
made fun of because my favorite talk was by Elder Cardon
they made fun of my because it was about successful marriage, but that's
not why its my favorite. its my favorite because of the beginning when
he said he learned it all by watching and i thought that applies to all
parts of life even as missionaries if you've seen missionaries do
certain things and it didn't work that means you need to try something
different but if you see something that did work you should apply it to
your work as well and it has endless possibilities. well that's really
all I'm still a little sick but I'm getting better and I'm hoping to be able
to go work tomorrow in Lavezares and do all i can to help their area to
grow. well i love you and hope to be able to do all i can to help all
of you while I am still here but i cant help unless you allow me to love
you all
