It's goin' down!

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyy everybody. As you can  cleary  read from this title of this email, it's been going down lately. This week was AWESOME. You know how last week how we freaked out about someone finally going to church?? Guess how many went yesterday? Or a better question, how many times I've eaten a healthy dinner here in Paraguay. THREE! WOoooooooooooOOOOooooOOOOO! So life is pretty great here in Paso de Oro.      This whole transfer was like crazy hard and legit NOTHIN was going down. We talked to 150 plus personas every day and visited a ton of members who gave us no referrals and it was just TOUGH. But this week, I don't know WHAT happened, but all these people came out of nowhere. A bunch of members gave us referrals to visit this week, the guy who went to church last week came again, and an inactive family came who has a daughter who  happened to just turn 9  (the golden age). So life is pretty fantasterific.      If ...

A week of one miracle!

Yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo how was your week everybody? I know Pioneer Day is coming up (aka the most important holiday of the year) so I hope you're all preparing for that. They celebrate it like crazy down here so I'm super excited for that.      Guess what happend this week guys? SOMEBODY CAME TO CHURCH! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Paso de Oro hasn`t had an investigator attendance for like over a month so that was awesome. There's this recent convert named Aracy and she has a husband who's NOT A MEMBER. And we invited him to come to church and BAM, there he came. That was pretty exciting. I would say we had a pretty successful week because of that, but nothing else really happened  ¯\ _(ツ)_/¯.      Have I ever wrote about how much I love Paraguayans?? I really am gonna miss them in a year, not gonna lie. I mean to say this without sarcasm, but I think it's so funny how we get rejected sometimes. They come up with the wei...

I'm not cold anymore!

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey guysssssssssssssssssssssssssss      So I'm just confused. Paraguay doesn't make sense to me. Last week I was FREEEZZINNGG cold like every day. I literally bought a coat it was so cold. And then guess what happend this week? I was on the edge of getting my shirts cut to make them short sleeved. WHAT HAPPENED PARAGUAY!? Ok ok ok all of that was a bit of an exaggeration, but it WAS a lot hotter this week. But anywayyssssssssssssssssss...      This week was pretty weird...to say the least  . So basically last week was AWESOME and we found a bajillion people to teach and gave 5 people baptism dates, and then this week came we couldn't find ANY of them again. I swear it's like everyone just packed their bags and moved to Uraguay or something. But hey! Just gives us more time to find people to teach right!? Wooooooooooooooooo woooooooooooooo.      I forgot if I've mentioned this before, but my companion Elder P...

"I'm cold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As you can see from those first 2 pictures, IT'S COLD GUYS. Oh sorry, I was so cold that I forgot to write an introduction. Oops.      WHAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaat is up ya'll. I hope you all had an awesome 4th of July. We were livin it up here in Paraguay in the cold. My district leader called me and told me "Happy 4th of July!!" so that was pretty exciting. This week we had a ton of success. We found a TOOOOON of people to teach and 5 of them accepted baptism dates! WOooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Unfortunately it was FREEZING cold yesterday morning, so church attendance was pretty low and no of them attended, but ya know how it is. There's always next week!      It's been crazy hard finding things to do after 6pm. So pretty much NOBODY wants to set appointments after 6 because, and I quote "Hace frìo en esa hora, hay que pasar màs temprano" (It's cold at that time, come earlier). So we always have a bunch of appointments from 3-6pm and then BAM, nada...

Yooooooooooooooooooo guys. I'd like to start off this email by saying that I'm super hungry and my muscles are sore from doing Insanity every day. Especially my legs.      This week was pretty wild. And by wild I mean pretty boring lol. The weather here legit is whack. Last Monday it was pretty tranquilo and warmish but then BAM, Tuesday hit. It was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cold guys. Legit Elder Prado and I were jumping up and down in our sweaters it was so cold. We were just clapping from house to house and the only people that would listen to us were girls with no hombre in the house. And as many of you know, we're not allowed to go into houses if there ain't no hombre in there, so we were walkin around for like TWO HOURS in the cold. But I bought a 2 liter of Coke the day before, so life was all good.      My companion says that I eat very unhealthily and I simply just don't understand. For example, this morning we woke up and we were getting ready...
