Hola Familia y Amigos,
So we did not go into Concé today, so we are a crappy cyber internet place here in Hualpen and so it is not letting me upload photos, but don´t worry I will send all the ones from today next week.
So we did not go into Concé today, so we are a crappy cyber internet place here in Hualpen and so it is not letting me upload photos, but don´t worry I will send all the ones from today next week.
So the two main photos
I was going to send...
The first was from
this morning when we went to the park to do our morning studies and it was the
best!!!
So nice to just lay
out in the sun.
The second picture was
of his guy in a really construction looking outfit. You will have to just
wait and see, but it is a really weird outfit. And the first time I ever saw a
guy in this outfit, I though they must have a really cool job. Well I
have realized that the job that this guy has and all the others you have to
wear this dorky but kinda cool outfit is water the plants...seriously...just
water the plants is all they do all day and they have to wear these really
crazy full body protector yellow neon jumpsuits. It bewilders me. I just
don’t get it. I thought maybe they trim the trees and pull weeds and stuff like
that too, but no they just water the plants. Also Chile wastes so much
water they seriously water everything till it is drowning in water. They even
water just the dirt. I think it is because the whole country lives right along
the Andes Mountains, so they have continual water runoff all year, so their
water is really cheap. All I know is that if the world ends up in a water
shortage I am coming to Chile!! haha
Well not much to write
this week.
Only that with the
other Hermanas gone in our house, it is a lot quieter and we have been able to
focus so much better. So we have worked our bums off so hard this week
and we have been lucky to get to be 30 mins early a few nights because we are
just so exhausted. But we have seen the fruits of our labors and have found a
family to teach this week and another man, Leonardo, who started to cry when we
invited him to be baptized because he really does just want to be completely
clean and change his life around and follow Christ. It was such an awesome
experience.
Everyone go read Alma
26 because it is so good and probably my favorite Chapter right now. Also
we are expected to contact 140 people a week and everyone has been slacking the
past few weeks, but this week Hermana Taylor and I got 202; which was probably
the highest in the mission for this week!! So yeah, take that Satan. haha
And by contacting was
how we found Leonardo. He was waiting for a bus at a bus stop. Almost didn’t
talk to him, but then I knew when it is the hardest and scariest to talk to
someone, that is when I most need to do it.
Anyways love you all
and got to go!!
Choa,
Hermana Corbett
