I don't even know what to say to this... especially since our trek ended after the first day.
First thing that came to mind when I read this was "You didn't know that Mitch likes to sit out on things like this?"
This last week was a little hard, Tuesday started with a big storm leaving most of the streets in our area submurged or thick mud, so it made it hard to get into anyone's house, but we did find on this day a woman named Roxana and her daugther Maria. We have high hopes for them so I'll keep you up on that. Wendsday we couldn't get any lessons, Thursday we had exchanges again and I got to work with Elder Fontes, who made for lunch an AMAZING biscuits and gravy (fyi, he has had two companions from southern usa, hence the reason he knew how to make it,) Friday it was just solid cold but we got quite a bit of work done, especially since we got to have a lesson with Patricia and Silvio that night (more on this later,) and then Saturday was the first match for Argentina, and because of this, basically any and all missionaries were told to stay in their pensions during the match and given a good luck for after to find anyone (Especially since they won! (yay!!)) and then Sunday... no one came to church.
Our lesson with Patricia was about the changing power of the Atonement and how it can effect their lives. It was a very powerful lesson, especially since we talked about the law of Chastity with them and after we got a firm "We'll think about it" from them. I even did a part, telling a story of how the Atonement has helped me.
This week is the last of the Transfer, and now every one in our pension is sick and with another game coming this week things will probably continue to be hard to work, but we will be working nonetheless.
President Olsen also only has a few weeks left, he'll be heading our July 1st so we'll probably be having a HUGE mission conference for this, maybe even an Apostle will come.
Love y'all!!!
