Wow! It does sound like
you've had a wet week! Just so you know I'd just about forgotten that hot water
exists. But I suppose it's also less necessary where I am since the weather is
usually warm or hot. Sometimes very hot.
Our most interesting experiences
this week are the ones that also have pictures.
Thursday morning we were
finishing companionship study and just about ready to start weekly planning
when one of the sisters who lives a couple houses down the street came to our
door. She said that her companion wasn't doing well and asked us to come. Her
comp, who had stayed home sick the day before still wasn't doing well. In the
end, after consulting with Hna Klein, we asked the Bishop and his wife to take
us to the hospital. Thus, I was once again in the hospital in the Lima, but
this time as moral support and not as a patient. One of the doctors even
recognized me. But he was happy to know that I was just there visiting. :)
The ward in El Porvenir is
growing a garden behind the chapel. Saturday we went to help the Relief Society
plant bell peppers (chile dulce). They are already growing platano, guayaba
(guava), tomato, pepino (cucumber), and other things that I can't remember. We
brought one of our investigators. She has a lot of plants in her house, so we
thought that she might like the garden. And she did. She got right to work with
us. Hopefully one day soon, she'll want to come to church with us and
experience Sunday in the chapel.
This week we
are going to try having a music class. We might teach how to direct music, or
we might try to start a ward choir. It depends on how many people come and
interest level. I've never tried to do a music class as a missionary. I hope it
turns out to be a worthwhile experiment.
We continue to try to work
with our current investigators, but we are also trying to contact as many
people as we can in the hopes that we can find people, or maybe even a family,
that is ready to embrace the gospel.
I hope you have a wonderful
week. I love you all. Have a wonderful Mother's day.
Love,
Hermana Davis
