So this week was pretty crappy. Mabel didn’t come to
church yet again and this time she didn’t actually have an excuse. The family
that was progressing may or may not have been told that they cannot come to
church while they are living in sin, which does not make any sense to me! That
is contrary to the scriptures, which is what happens when you have members that
don’t actually read the Book of Mormon. I was pretty sad yesterday. It was one
of the harder days in the mission and I just wanted to go home and sleep. We
had planned really well for an hour because we had a member come out with us.
Yeah, we went through 10 people in one hour. That just added to the fact that
we didn’t have any of our investigators at church.
I don’t want to talk about that anymore so I am going to
talk about Argentina facturas. Facturas are sweets that are sold at almost
every corner and I´m sad that they don’t really have anything like them in the
states. Their churros are awesome, especially the filled ones. I will have to
take a picture of a panaderia and send it so you can see the wonderfulness that
I´m talking about. They also have a store just for plastics next to our
apartment, which is kind of funny.
Don’t get me wrong: yesterday was hard, but I still love
being a missionary. Everything about it. This is what I was meant to do with my
life and the thought of going home is a little depressing. I hope you all
realize that this situation of knowing about me through email will be common,
because I really want to serve another mission or the closest I can get to it.
I love you all!
