Hey everybody,
Wow how time flies, yesterday was 8 months in the mission. That is crazy and this Sunday is Skype!!!!! YAYY. This week was as really good
week. It started with an intercambio with Elder Newell, Tuesday morning, we ate
crepes with a member. Then on the way back to Pueblo Nuevo Tuesday my comp and I got thrown into the trunk of a car (they fit three in the front 2 seats,
3 in the back seats, and 2 or 3 in the trunk). It was very tight and then our
car broke down half way so we waited for another car to come, and we got thrown
into an even smaller trunk. Two huge gringos shouldn't be put in 1 trunk, but we
survived.
Wednesday we had an open chapel in Paita. On Saturday morning
had a super awesome service project. We woke up at 5:30 then went and for 3
hours we torn down this members house, we started off by ripping off his tin
roof, then removing the doors and windows, then with hammers, sticks, and our
feet we took down the walls. They were made of sticks and mud, so it was just a
matter of strength and destruction. It was super fun and dangerous. The hand of
the Lord saved us a few times.
Then we made American pancakes with syrup on
Saturday and it was super delicious!! Funniest moment of the week was in church
this week we sang a Christmas hymn as the closing hymn of sacrament meeting, it
was super funny nobody even batted an eye. My comp and I lost it. But in good
news, our investigator Pierina is progressing really well and will hopefully be
baptized on the 19th if she gets permission from her mother!!!
Today we
went to Piura bought material to make some awesome ties! Then ate at Chili's and
drank venti caramel frapps!!! That is about it for the week! Next week are transfers, we will see what happens, I just really hope I stay here, I don't want to leave, I am loving Pueblo Nuevo!!!
Love,
Elder Luke Gruber
