| District El Carmen!!! |
Today was crazy! Had our last District Meeting all
together, and took a bunch of pics with everyone, and went to eat at Subway
with Hnas Miller and Joaquin, as they're leaving on Thursday on their home
flights, and went to the Benque to give the nursing overview to
the newbies, and then walked for an hour all over creation to find a place that
sells this special kind of back brace for the elder that fell down the stairs,
so we didn't have time to go the office, and then we taught a lesson, and then
the other 2 fell through, and all our backup plans fell through, so we walked
around and did street contacting for over an hour. And both Hna Robles and I
were just exhausted and sleepy the whole time, so that was hard.
But the newbies
seem like a good little bunch, there were something like 10, I think, that
came, 4 hnas, 6 elderes, including 1 gringo, Elder Pieper. But they were a lot
more awake and active than my group was (I fell asleep 2 or 3 times during the
training day when we weren't actively doing something), and Elder Pieper is
funny. Said he can teach the Gospel in Spanish, and that's about it for his
language knowledge right now, but that's totally ok, and that's exactly where I
was just a little bit ago (and still am, sometimes). So there's light at the
end of the tunnel! But he's pretty easy going and eager, so I think he'll be
just fine. Told him to change his socks often and not put the thermometer in
his mouth and he nodded and said that was a good idea, he'll make sure to do
that, so I have great hopes for this one, gonna be a great missionary. And, at
the least, a healthy one, so I'm all for that, too.
