Okay
what to say what to say. Last week was wonderful. We were able to visit
all of our investigators and most of our less actives. Things are still
a go for Diahna and Davely´s baptism. This week is going to be crazy to
say the least! I´m a little stressed, but it´ll be fine. Yesterday we
had a sisters meeting in Santiago, which was a 2 hour drive, came back
from that only to be able to proselyte for a little bit. And with our
luck all of our appointments fell through! AH! Atleast we had the
opportunity to take a member with us and invite our investigators to the
baptism the elders are having this Saturday. THEN I get a call saying
that I have to go today back to Santiago by 4, spending the night at the
mission home, and the next day going to Santo Domingo to get my visa
renewed. So I´m leaving my mini here and going on intercambios with
another sister so she´ll be helping proselyte in their area all
Thursday. And then on Friday we have a special Capacitation in Navarette
which is an hour and a half from our area. And we will get back in time
to help the Elders throw a party for the people getting married who are
getting baptized the day after. And on Saturday we are getting up early
to help clean the church, my companion is practicing a special number
for the baptism. In all its going to be crazy and we won´t be able to
visit the people we had planned to visit so our numbers are going to be
terrible! Ah! BUT something that I have learned is that I´m working with
people and not numbers. And that every moment is the Lords time and he
can see what we are really doing with the time that we have.
So
here are a couple pictures of what we´ve done this week. The Relief
Society had a sleep over in their PJ´s. I was invited, but couldn´t go
because my mini isn´t of Relief Society age yet. SO I decided to sneak
over and surprise them and take a selfie of them in the PJ´s. It was soo
fun! We also ate at the Bishops house, and a less active this week So I
brought little treats over for them to try that are popular in the U.S.
Rice Krispies to the less active and Funeral Potato´s to the Bishop´s.
What´s funny is that they don´t eat those kinds of things here so when I
brought it over they thought it was SUPER FANCY and said that I will be
blessed to find a husband quickly because I can cook. I was laughing so
hard, on the inside of course, at their comments. So now you know if
anything, my future husband and I will be surviving off of Funeral
Potato´s and Rice Krispies haha.
Hope all is well, keep being great!
Love, Hermana Van Woerkom
