Hey Hey Hey,
This week was super awesome. It is super awesome because we
have a brand new bathroom. The only problem is the entire town of Huangala got
their water shut off. So we have a new bathroom, but we cant use it... We had
to wake up at 6 to go with a member in his car to the local canal, fill up
buckets, and water jugs to bring to our room and shower with. And sometimes the
member couldn't go, so we had to walk their and walk back. I thought with my new
bathroom I wouldn't have to shower with a bucket and a cup. But I was wrong. The
problem is there is no end in site, so we might be waterless for another week
:(
Yesterday was election day here, so there wasn't really
anything to do, we were able to watch the 2nd session on Sunday but the
Internet cut out during the last talk. Next Sunday I'll be able to watch the
rest of conference. For the Saturday session 11 of us gringos were crammed into
a small little bishops office to watch it in English, it was really hot!
Also this week we went to a lesson with a member who is 12,
and when we looked over to him to ask him a question and he was snoozing. He really
wanted to visit people with us, but was too tired to stay awake during the
lesson. We had a good laugh with our investigator.
This week I also prepared 2 ¨traditional¨ USA meals for a
member. First I prepared macaroni and cheese with hot dogs. It was a pretty
big success, everybody liked it. I also made waffles this morning. Which
also turned out really good!
Then today we went with a member to his banana farm. It was
pretty cool, he taught us all about how it goes down. From this small town they
send bananas to all over the world. They have big sponsorships from Dole, Walmart, and many others I don't remember or have never heard of.
That's about it for this week. This upcoming week we have
interviews and multi zone conference! so it should go by even faster! I love
and miss you all a ton!! Everyday here is the best day ever!!!
Love,
Elder Luke Gruber
