first, who was the first person to be baptized in our family tree, and whats the whole story behind that.
and i need ideas for activities to do, we have to teach the primary, basically nursery. we have kids from 4 to 11 years old in there and i really need activities to keep them all busy and entertained for two hours. we dont really have a lot of resources here, so primarly drawing stuff, or games with just your body, like simon says or sit in a circle and do something. things like that just super super simple and something that will grab their attention. =) that would really help us out a lot.
ok so now...... story time=)
so we had our zone meeting these weekend, and wow, super rough. we got up at 430, got ready and went to the bus stop. got there at 9 and!!! i had a package, no mom, yours has not come. it was from my last comp. i opened it up. it was wrapped like a missionary would do it, double bagged in plastic bags and then, the gift itself, wrapped in old socks.. hahahaha but the item of interest.. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I FINALLY GOT MY LICENSE PLATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i have been looking for an argentina license plate my whole mission, and my last comp found one, remembered that we had talked about it, and sent it up to me=) what a stud no?? i was so pumped. its awesome!!!!!
we also found this fruit at the house of a member, the same where we cleared an acre with a machete, well we went back for a visit and she gave us a fruit from a cactus called tuna. soooo gooood!!! apparently they are called prickly pears, i dont know. but they are glorious. you have to take the skin and the spines off and they eat this little ball thats inside. but its is so worth it. and cold or almost frozen, wow.
love that stuff.
we had 2 people in church this week. but we are having complications. they are due to be baptized this saturday but now all of a sudden the mom is saying that they are catholics and shouldnt do it. even though she investigated the church forever, and would have gotten baptized 7 years ago had her boyfriend not denied to be married. bummer. but of her 7 kids, 4 are baptized. so i dont see whats up. so really pray for familia Barbero.
adelma is a CHAMP she is for sure getting baptized. we are just going slow and letting her figure out the date cause she wants all her kids there. so we are really pumped about her. she is the sweeteest lady ever. i swear. i only get to baptize old people or kids, haha my goal is still baptize a family that has a son of about 17-18 that will go on a mission. =) go for gold no?
but im havin a blast. next week is tranfers so we will talk on tuesday. it is probable that my comp leaves. so i will let you know.
love you guys.
workin hard and lovin the heck out of this=)
