Hey Mom! Sooooo
Yes it is raining, at least I think
it is. It was on the verge of doing so when we got to the library. We didn't see any of
the dark clouds until about an hour ago.
So from Wednesday of last week.
I went to the dentist again. Doc
Bough looked at my mouth and said everything looked good. The pain has
basically gone away except in the lower right side of my mouth it sometimes
feel like my teeth are getting ripped out when I eat, but that's starting to go
away too. So it's all good. The day was pretty slow after that. We tried to
visit a bunch of people but nobody was home. So that day ended rather roughly.
:/
Thursday.
We rode down to Bloomington and did
some service at a food pantry. We helped unload some trucks. It was fun. Two of
the elders from the English ward were there too. (We set up with the food
pantry people to do service this week. We are going to clean around the place,
weed, pick up trash, and so forth. Should be pretty good.) Afterward the 4 of
us went to Panda Express for lunch and then we went home for Weekly Planning.
We had an interesting experience where we went to see the Sarabia's and Noelia
opened the door and told us to come back later and then we got a text from her
saying to not come by for a few days. We were pretty concerned,but they said
they'd be at church so we just waited it out.
Friday.
Was kind of interesting. We went
down to visit one of our referrals his name is Roberto and we found him and we
are talking to him about what we do as missionaries and what-not. While there this
other guy walks up and looks at us and tells us this story about how he just
found out he might have a 20 year old kid that he's never met and so he is
looking at all the 20-ish year old people to see if he can see himself in them. And then he asked if I knew my dad and so all
and all it was a very interesting conversation. But then we went down to
Bloomington and while we were down there a lady pulled over and asked if we
wanted water. Just out of the blue! It was Awesome!! We had dinner with the
Medina family that night. It was soooooooo good!!!! Pollo, Frijoles, Papas,
with some Tortillas hechas en casa(home-made) Sooooo good!!!
Saturday.
Everything fell through that morning
so we just walked and tried to talk to people but nobody was out. So after
walking basically all the daylong at 4 we went to our correlation. Elder
Twitchell got picked up and went to a baptism so I stayed with the other elders
for about 3 hours that night. It was fun we taught some lessons and just
enjoyed the coolness of being in a trio!
Domingo.
Sunday was good. We decided to go
early and we did our studies outside the church. The Sarabia family hadn't
shown up and we called them before church but they hadn't answered. But during
the opening hymn of sacrament meeting they called us and said they needed a
ride. We had no idea who to ask and then be both had the thought of Hno.
Espindola, so we asked him and he went and they came and it was awesome!!! It
rained all day after church, no thunder storms, I miss those so much, just
rain. We got soaked that night it was really rough. haha. But fun at the same
time. and yeah that's been the week.
