Hey Hey Hey,
This week flew by super fast, we had almost no time to work
in our area we were all over the place. On Tuesday we had our interviews with
President Vega and his wife, and then on Wednesday we had our multi-zone
conference in Piura and we didn't get back to our area until about 7 pm. Then on
Thursday we spent a few hours helping a member move.
Then on Saturday after 4 long months of looking and praying
for a new room, we moved into our new room! It is only 3 doors down, and on the
3rd story, we are the first people to ever live in the room and it is super
nice. Us 4 Elders live there, it has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a kitchen, laundry
room, and a living room. It is big and nice. We also have a really nice view of
the entire town. Also our window in our bedroom opens up to look over a pasture
of goats, sheep's, pigs, ducks, chickens, turkeys, dogs, cows, horses and more.
So our alarm in the morning is the screaming goats and the oinking pigs, and
cocking roosters and its super cool!
Then on Saturday we also had the awesome opportunity to
baptize our investigator Juana, we found her knocking doors about 2 months ago,
and we had given up on her, and we were about to drop her, but then out of the blue
she showed up to church, and told us she was reading the Book of Mormon. She has
so much faith and was super super excited to be baptized. Although I might have
lost my footing as she was coming out of the water and we almost both fell in,
but I saved it. All the members had a good laugh. Then she asked if she could
stay in the water and swim a little bit. Also the branch president tried to
confirm her a member on Sunday but ever time messed up a different part and
tried it about 10 different time. So he gave up and said it would be a better
idea if I just did it. So I also had to opportunity to confirm her a member of
the church and give her the gift of the holy ghost. A super cool
experience.
That's about all for this week!!! Ever day here is the best
day ever!!
Love,
Elder Luke Gruber
