Buga - Week sixteen

This week, Elder Gamboa got moved, so now we have to work in like 2 thirds of the city and have no idea who lives in the area because the other Elders didn't fill the area book at all, but I WAS informed of the baptism/wedding that was planned so it was all up to me to get these investigators married and then baptized, so I DID! They're named Andres and Gisella, really cool people, but Andres is only 18 and Gisella 15 HA! They were already living together when we found them and Gisella is also kinda 3 months pregnant so Andres can't go on a mission, so the best option was to get them married. They're really happy. 

Also this Wednesday we went to paint a house as a district. It was actually really fun, I think we spent more time painting each other than the actual walls though. It turned out really bad, but it wasn't really our fault. Also, my companion decided to not help and to play with the kids of that family so that was also really cool. But I had a blast. Also the sisters decided to write DISTRICT WOODMANSEE on the wall, and told me to do my little, "hey look at me" pose that I like doing, so that's also there.

Also we have like 3 baptismal dates, Cristian, who's trying to stop smoking, Pilar who couldn't be baptized last week due to job stuff, and Mayuri, some member's girlfriend who lives out in the middle of nowhere (we had to take a bus to get there). We're working really hard, and with the other area that we have now, we think that we might have 7 or 8 baptisms before the end of this transfer, so that's coool. We won't be able to baptize Adhara (frank;s sister) this transfer because she couldn't go to church this week, because she was "studying"

thanksgiving isn't a thing here.

According to what they're telling me, that guy decided to bring his 4 year old son here too, so he's like getting a passport for him. They're telling me that he'll be here the first week of December. They're sending him pictures of my shoes so that he feels bad and hurrys up haha

love you
