Week 37: Burning Room


Hey all, 

This week was really good, it started Tuesday morning with a funny story. We were in a lesson with a new investigator teaching him a lesson, when all of the sudden my companions face goes white, and he looks at me and whispers "hurry up, we have to go", he wouldn't tell me what it was but we quickly finished the lesson and busted out the door. I assumed he either had a bathroom emergency or we got a text saying something was going down. I asked him as we are sprinting to our room what happened, he said "Our room is burning down!!! I left the stove on!". But we got back and everything was good, it gave me a good laugh because my companion freaked. 

Then that same day we got a call from our pensonista, she went to the hospital in  an emergency so she couldn't feed us. So I decided to try and cook some chicken. I bought some raw chicken, but quickly realized we didn't have the tools to cook it. We had a small saute pan, a spoon, and an old unsharpened knife, and no running water to clean anything. But I fried a little bit of chicken, offered an extra long blessing over the food and ate it, it turned out really bad, but was quite the experience. We then found out or pensonista went to the hospital because she got bite by a poisonous spider, everything is good now with her. My companion and I made some Peruvian pancakes this week, with out a packet or anything. We made it for some members, we couldn't try them because we were fasting but they turned out pretty good. It was the first time they had ever eaten pancakes. 

That's about it for the week, I also gave a talk this week on tithing and fasting. I have official been put on the team of finding a new chapel for the church. We are also looking to buy some land to build a chapel. Its kinda fun, something not many people can say they have done, gone chapel hunting. Make everyday the best day ever! 

Love, 
Elder Luke Gruber
