March 30th, 2015

Well, we had 4 inches of hail this last week... 4 whole inches. When you squinted your eyes, it looked a bit like snow!! It made everyone go crazy... the little moto taxies were crashing all over the place, the old ladys were still trying to do their work. We help a lot of them push their bread carts through the snow, and put up their tarp shelters, then watched as they hunched over and chewed their cocoa leaves like it was just another day. haha, elder Chacon stepped in a foot deep hole that had been covered by the hail and looked solid... after that we had to go back to the room for him to change and to get our goloshes on. Crazy day though, everything flooded and just about every street was a river. Lost quite a few lessons that day which was really sad, but thats alright.

Our investigators all had a rather terrible week. All have problems that are making things really hard for them, but for some of them this made them a little more humble and now they say theyll come to conference to get a little more strength.

Im pretty excited for conference, we get to watch all of it.. and they set up a room off to the side for the american misisonaries to watch it in english. Annnd everyone brings food and snacks. Cake, cookies, candy. Im gonna bring my little stove and cook some french toast and pancakes the foollowing day. Its gonna be a party!! 

Im making tacos tonight for district meeting, and had to go on a goose chase to find all the stuff to make them... my adventures took me to the meat market... Its a little sketchy getting meat thats been sitting out in the sun for a whole day, amongst the flies, from a littel old lady with a blood stained and crusted apron, who weilds a rusty bloody cleaver to chop it all up. But i guess i'll cook out all the diseases hidden within, right? Just kidding its not that bad, she washes her hands pretty frequently, even in the water looks a little old.

We got Easter coming up!! Its the perfect time to put more effort in always remembering him, He Lives, which is the title of the new video the church just put out! Go check it out!! I know he lives and I
SNOW!! Here comes winter....
 
know what that means for me, FIND OUT WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU!!!!! 

LOve you all lots, stay safe!!!
