Hey everybody,
This week was super awesome. Monday night my comp and I went Christmas caroling for about 2 hours. Just went singing
hymns to the members and our investigators. It was actually a super spiritual
experience to see the faces of everybody we sang to light up!
A super crazy thing happened. We were in a lesson with our
investigator named Daniela (which is her middle name, everybody here in
Huangala goes by their middle name not their first name). And I offered the
opening prayer. And I don't know why because I know her name was Daniela but in
the prayer I used the name Diana. And instead of saying Daniela I said Diana.
And at the end my companion asked her, is your name Daniela or Diana. And she
said both. Diana is her first name and but goes by Daniela her second name. But
she had never told us her first name. It was super crazy we were all super
surprised!
Also this week we did service 2 times in the banana farms!
We went with the members Friday morning and today. We just cut branches for over
an hour with machetes. And it was super fun! Just hacking away at branches for
hours, it was like I was a ninja! The only problem is that I got a big
blister on my hand, and my entire body is sore from the work! But it was
awesome! We plan to do more service soon. So today my companion and I bought
our own machetes to do work! They were 15 soles each so like 4
bucks!
Also just so you know, never sniff rubbing alcohol!
That was about it for the week! Everyday here is the best
day ever!!!
Love,
Elder Luke Gruber
