Hey all,
This was a really good week. We had to travel to Piura this
week, 6 hours there and 6 hours back. The highlight of the trip was the 2
Starbucks blended creams I drank. I tried the new cookies and cream flavor, but it just
tasted like water, big let down.
Although the craziest thing that happened was Saturday
night. (a need to know is that in our bed room we have a sliding glass door to a
little balcony outside). First off there was a huge 15 year olds birthday party
out front and it was blasting music and we couldn't sleep, but at like 10:30 it
just started down pouring super hard and ruined the party. So we actually got
to sleep pretty good. But then at 3 am I was woken up to the loudest noise I have ever heard. I look down and saw that a huge gust of wind blew down our
sliding glass door and it shatter all over the floor. Then at 3 am we spent 30
minutes cleaning it up. And then I actually had to sleep with a blanket and a
jacket because there was so much wind that I was super cold.
I also found some super cheap pomegranates for 30
American cents each and they were soooooo goooood.
Also today for pday we played soccer for 3 hours and then
just sat in the mall food court in the air conditioning playing Uno. I was to broke
to buy any of the food so I just ate bread. (I'm broke because I lent money and
the Elder hasn't payed me back).
But yesterday night we had a miracle. Our last appointment
for the day fell because she was not at home. We did not know where to go or
what to do when I had the impression to go visit a family of members who didn't
go to church for the last two weeks. We went to the house and found the family
and one of their friends who was very interested in our message and told us
that he wants to go to church next week. I know it was the holy spirit guiding us
to this house and I felt great peace.
This week we read my favorite parable of the lost sheep. I
always love the love that God and Jesus Christ have for each one of us. We are
always failing and sinning but anyway God is there looking for us and helping us
get back on the road!
Also Sunday morning at 9:30 we got a text from our bishop
letting me and my comp know we both had talks. It was quite the surprise. I threw a quick 10 minute talk together before church started at 10.
I love and miss you all so much! Everyday is the best day
ever!!
Love,
Elder Luke Gruber
