5-28-18 - Wow what a week!!!




WOW WHAT A WEEK!!!
Okay this week was super crazy and I cant believe it. It flew by and we didn't have a minute to spare. Let us start first with Monday. Monday we wanted to print some pictures we had and finally found a place to do it in Paraguari. So we went but it took us like 4 hours to do it. The lady told us it would only take a few minutes. We also visited the familia Cespedez to get them ready for their bautismo. They are so great. 
Tuesday we had their entrevista and the Elders said that they did great. That they have testimonies super grande.

On Wednesday, this is where it gets crazy. We had to wake up super early, 3 in the morning, to go to Asuncion. We found a colectivo in minutes and it was super fast. We got to San Lorenzo, which normally takes about an hour and a half, in 50 minutes. So we waited outside in the cold. It was freezing. But there was this kitten who was freezing and Elder Pedersen tried to catch it. He tried for like 40 minutes to gain the trust of the little kitten and finally got to hold it. It was so cute and it was purring in his arms. Pictures are included of this. We waited for the rest of our zona and took a colectivo to Asuncion. We had our conferencia de zona and I got to see Hermana Varga and Hermana Ostvig
. Also a lot of people from my group my missionaries that came with me. It was a lot of fun. But going home was an adventure again. This time we wanted to make sure we had a colectivo so we went to a place called the terminal. Its like a huge bus stop where all the colectivos go. SO we went there. We found a colectivo for Paraguari but it was super small. And it turns out that it was the slowest colectivo in the planet. Goodness. It took like 4 almost 5 hours to get back to paraguari. It was so slow the colectivo. Ugh goodness. We left around 3 o so in the afternoon and got back to Paraguari around 9 in the night. It was a long trip again. But we got to celebrate and open our packages from our awesome families!!!










Thursday we had to get up early again to go to Yaguaron. Another city to have entrevistas con Presidente. It was so much fun to go, but it is kinda sad because it was our last entrevista con Presidente Wilson. He goes home soon and we are getting a new presidente. It is gonna be interesting to see how different he is. But I am excited. Thursday we had no time to work either because we still had to do weekly planning which is 3 hours and then our studies which is 3 and a half hours. SO ya fue nuestro dia. Friday we had intercambios. I got to go to San Lorenzo with an Hermana named Hermana Cardanas. She is super sweet and it was fun to go back to San Lorenzo. It was kinda weird to be back in the city. But it was so much fun to work.





On Saturday we returned to Paraguari and also had no time to work by the time we got back because of our studies and our BAPTISM!!!! Oh my goodness it was so great. We had a baptism TUICHA!!!!!! 7 people were baptized including the Familia Cepsedez!!!!! It was so amazing. It was so spiritual. I am so excited that they got to enter into the waters of baptism. As everyone of the 7 people left the water, they just glowed. They were wet and cold jaja but they were so happy. I wanted to cry. It was so cute to see familia Cepsedez enter the water. They are such a special family and now their goal is to enter into the temple and be sealed for time and all eternity. They are such a blessing in my life, La Familia Cepsedez. And Sunday, wow Sunday. 7 people received the spirit and were confirmed members. It was so amazing. This week was so crazy but it was so spiritually filled and so great. We have cambios next week and I am really nervous with what's going to happen. I have no idea but I am excited to see. I love you all. The church is true. There wasn't a lot to write about but it was a jammed pack week. Thank you for everyone for your support. I love being a missionary and helping people to have better lives and to receive the blessings God has for them. Keep being awesome! Love you
