Week Seventeen!
This
week was a growing week. Which
is happy code for this week was really, really, really ridiculously hard. On Tuesday we found out Hermana Witt was
going to Lima until Saturday. We had two
options close Chilca for a few days or have a member be my companion for a
while.
Obviously I chose the latter, I’m not leaving my investigators. So with two weeks left in my training, I
became a trainer. But that wasn't the
hard part, leading the lesson wasn't hard, the speaking Spanish every second wasn't hard. It was the changing companions
every 12 hours that was hard.
And by Saturday I was so done.
I was so ready to have Hna Witt back, and that was when I got the phone
call. Hna. Witt isn't coming back till
Tuesday as in tomorrow Tuesday, I still don’t have a companion. Today I am staying with the Hermanas of
Peñaloza and I think this has been the hardest because I’m not in my area with
people I’m comfortable with and I’m not with my companion, who is quite a bit
more obedient than some other missionaries, and that is the hardest part. Being ignored in lessons, getting yelled at
for my informe numbers and doing the right thing all by myself when everyone
around me is supposed to be doing it too.
But there were some highlights to the week. We saved the cat and broke a window in the
process, oops. There was a stake relief
society activity, where a bunch of Peruvians acted out the Oregon Trail, well
not the Oregon Trail but the one for the Mormons. I don’t remember what it was called but they
were doing the story in Daughters of my Kingdom and there was a part about Taiwan
and the United States and I got to be the United States it was great.
Then on Sunday the member didn't know they were feeding us so
they took us to a restaurant and on the TV Lost was playing it was Season Two and
I was like, Hey, I know this show, I've seen every episode. Angie, my temp companion was like every
episode? This just started and I was
just like I know what happens, hahaha, it was great.
After lost was over Warehouse 13 started and I was like man this
is awesome, just kidding, it was only slightly cool for a brief worldly moment.
But this week I decided Isaiah is my favorite prophet of
antiguidad, and Nephi is my favorite in the book of Mormon and here are some
verses I liked.
"Then I said, I have labored in vain, I have spent my
strength for naught and in vain, surely for my judgment is with the Lord and my
work with my God"
"But Behold Zion hath said, The Lord hath forsaken me, and my
Lord hath forgotten me- but he will show he hath not"
This is total.
