Week 42: Trainer


Some super big news!! So the small town of Pueblo Nuevo that I am serving has always had only one companionship of elders! BUT, this Thursday we got a call and there will be 2 companionship's, so a total of 4 elders serving here. And we all get to live together, it is going to be crazy!!! My companion Elder Schnieder got transfered to Sullana, and I am staying and will be training a newbie. So I am currently staying in Piura until tomorrow, I don't even know who my comp is yet, maybe gringo, maybe Latino, I'll find out tomorrow, and you guys will find out next Monday! 

Also some not so fun news, I'm only sharing this to make Emelie happy, I got into a Moto with our phone in my pocket, 5 minutes later got out and the phone wasn't there, so I lost the phone, which sucks. Because there is absolutely no communication between us and the other missionaries. and it also cost me 50 soles. It reminded me of Em last year on the cruise. Em don't worry, you arent the only one, I too make mistakes. 

I also tried a new food this week, duck egg. It was super good, a little bit smaller than a chicken egg, but super tasty! Also this week we were able to baptize Sister Maria Zapata, after a year of being taught by the missionaries, she suddenly said yes, and I still don't know how it happened. They only way I can explain it, is it was a miracle, a huge miracle from the Lord. Me and my comp also decided to make no bake cookies this week and they turned out super good, so good that I started to eat them so fast I gave my stomach quite the ache. That's about it for the week, it is going to be a crazy next 6 weeks and I am looking forward to it! everyday here is the best day ever!!!! 

Love, 
Elder Luke Gruber
