Week 34: Drinking river water!!! YAY

HOLAAA!! 

SO this past week I used pants to proselitismo and I didn't like it AT ALL. I felt sooo weird!! RIGHT when we walked outside we received AT LEAST 10 cat calls walking 3 blocks hahhaha NEVER AGAIN. 

This week we went out with the members to basically search for the menos activos in the rain forest. And on the way we found a pack of dogs and they came at us barking like CRAZY!! So the super old guy that was with us took off his back pack and started SLINKING IT AROUND AND IT ONLY MADE THE DOGS MORE MAD hahahaah Our only defence in that moment was the two old guys slinging their bags hahaha they were PUMPED. BUT somehow we got around the pack of dogs hahaha

This week we went contacting, and its fun cause the people almost always let us in their house! So this time we visited a girl named Brisma. When we got in she offered us some water, and we said yes. When she asked this she had just finished explaining where they put the clean water and where they put the dirty river water. So as we watched her fill up our cups with water SHE POURED IN THE WATER FROM THE RIVERRRR!!! I didnt know what to do so I just smiled and drank it allll!!! Then to repay her we swept her dirt floor. 

Then we were in a lesson with a family and all of a sudden a neighbor ran in to tell us that a teenager had just gotten jumped down the road!!! and we were like UHHH what do we do???

So we tried to calm the family down but the little girl just broke DOWN crying while hugging me. And I asked her why she was crying so hard and she said its cause the same thing happened to her aunt on that street but they ended up murdering her aunt in front of her. I just cried so hard hugging her. After she calmed down a bit I explained to her how families can be together forever and how she will see her aunt again. Such a sweet moment.

 I testify that as we treasure our families and set it as a goal to have an eternal family we will have more love and unity as families. We will strive to be our best selves. We will treat one another with more love. This is my goal, to have an eternal family, but I know I have to prepare my life now so I can be worthy and ready to do so. 

Con Amor,
