Hi guys!
This week was good, it was slow ....really slow
but at the same time fast. It went by fast but we had days that I have
never had before. One day I dont remember which but we had all these
plans and no one NO ONE was home or wanted to talk or nada. We had
gone through everyone pretty much and then we were trying to contact and
that wasnt really even going anywhere either. So we prayed. Then we
were walking and we walked past a street that had a taxi parked next to a
house. I recongnized the taxi, it was the one that Hna Johnson and I
went in to get to changes and that took us to the offices one day. Well
the day we went to the offices Hna Johnson was talking with him and he
was interested and said he lived close to us and that we could visit
him, his name is Manuel. Well we ran to this house and clapped and there
were only women. Well we shared with the mom she was old and catholic
but nice then her daughter left, she told us that her daughter drove the
taxi and I was sure it was this guys. Well talking more she said that
her daughters husband actually has the taxi and one of his legs got cut
off ( this was something I knew about him before) It was Manuel!! So we
bugged her about where they lived and ran there (okay more like walked
because we had walked all over the place!!) And we started talking with
his wife because he wasnt there and it turns out they live just down the
street from us. It was cool. We talked for a long time and I just had
this feeling that she was going to change. Then she said you have your
religion I have mine I'm good, I was a little fased by that but still I
think they can change! We havent gone back yet but we are planning on
it. Then ya so that was exciting. And the rest of our days were pretty
much like that we got in with a few people that we havent for a long
time! Like this one girl her name is Michelly shes 14 and a less active
recient convert, we only talked to her mom but we got through the gate
for the first time in like 8 something weeks! Woo! :)
So yeah
I dont really have any other cool stories, but we are just working and
walking on our feet in Molino!
Oh so our dinners
Sundays that we have with the Family Lopez yesterday he came up to me
and was excited but looked tired and wanted to show me a picture, I
thought his wife who is pregnant had her baby! But no, he showed me a
picture of bagles! One day I mentioned (several weeks ago) that I wanted
a bagle, I think really I was just talking to Hna Johnson. Well long
story short he MADE bagles!! And we had them for dinner and they were
really good! That was exciting.
Okay so today
we ran all over the place looking for a thermos (termo) and a dress and
all sorts of things and then we went and had lunch with a member in
Capiata an old area of Hna Betancourths she was suuuuper nice and really
cool. Well she has a hair salon thing and hna B bought this stuff to
well I think it is to permantly straighten your hair so she did that
which smelled really bad and took what felt like a long time. Well the
hermana said you look tired here take a nap, on these bench chair
things... so I sat there for a bit but then I did feel tired and they
were talking and spanish is so soft and flowy ( I dont know how to
explain it) I fell asleep. haha it was funny but soooo nice! And yes
several colectivos later that brings us to now. :)
