HOla Feliz Fiestas!
It was so good to talk to you all this week! It really
was a lift up to see you all. Its true that its a bit awkward... but hey,
by the end I was explaining my bowel movements just like the good ole days.
(Tyler, I cried in the street reading your farting story) My companion on
the other hand did not think it was funny.... eh. Oh well. I
enjoyed it.
Thank you AVERYS AND MEYERS for the videos. I cried.
Yep. You are all just too sweet!
Im not really sure what to tell you this week since we literally
just chatted away the other day, but I thought I would explain to you a little
more about the area that I am in. Paradis.. oh whoops I spelled that
wrong, Carlos Paz. LIterally this place is GORGEOUS!!! It is basically
like Park City. It is the Summer Getaway. With windy confusing
roads, and yep, you guessed it... killer hills. My calves EXIST
NOW!!!!!!!!!!! There is nothing quite like walking up a killer hill and
literally having your face touching the street in front of you. My first
days here, I would wake up in the night with cramps in my calves that would
birth a child. Now, they are just full of muscle... so clearly the extra
poundage is from that, not the food!!!! Phew! If you do decide to come to
pick me up, this would definitely be a place to visit. They are always
people playing in the beautiful rivers and waterfalls, and I just get so
jealous. I am soaking wet from the heat and humidity and sweat anyway,
what would it hurt to jump in and swim a little?? jaja. Look up pictures
you will die.
Its true, the cabins are too cool too!!! Yet, this brings
about a problem. There are always people coming and going. And the
people that we were teaching this week, all dropped us. Talk about
bummer. Now we are starting over back a zero. All the people we had
now are into their huge working months. They never have free time.
They are running the hotels, they are driving taxis, they are making bread for
all the holidays... its frustrating!!! Yet, we have faith, and plan to
attack all the tourists to give references to the other areas.
The members here are a little... strange too. NOBODY
WANTS US! haha. But really. We didnt find a willing member to skype
with you guys until thr morning of Christmas. So funny story. There
we were in Relief Society with the weekly announcements right. And then
the president says, "SIsters, do you have a place to pass the new
year?" we kindly reponded no... Then she said, Sisters, the missionaries
dont have a place to pass the holidays, who would like to invite them to their
homes?....." cricket en serio. We sat in silence for a good 3
minutes, just watching the sisters uncomfortablly move in their seats avoiding
eye contact. Finally the President of SOC SOC saved us and cut the silence.
Yep, so long story short...no one offered to take us in. haha. It was
SOOOOO awkward. pero, ya paso.
We are teaching someone named Gaston. Last night he
told us he knew the Book of Mormon is true. I was so excited!!!! Now he just
needs to accept the invitation to be baptized, and work something out with his
boss so that he can come to church!
I am well!
Thank you for your support and prayers... keep them
coming!
I love you!
Happy Holidays!
Hurrah for Israel!
Also, if you are ever having a bad day, read Eter 12. (wise
counsel from my dad that paid off this week)
Hurrah for Israel and Keep the Faith!
Con amor,
Hermana Woolley
