A Cucaracha In My Suitcase

Hey guess what everyone?! I've officially survived a cambio [change - they change up the companionships of missionaries every 6 weeks] here in the mission! That's right, 6 weeks DOWN like a spoon full of sugar! So with changes and all, we got big news. President took out a set of missionaries and now there are only two companionships for all of Itaugua. You people with google look that crap up.... I am supposed to be finding/saving souls in like an entire 15 kilometres of area.......... agh. We are only two!!! So it's been stressful and we get late everywhere and... Through the Lord we can do all things!!!

In other news, I rode a bike for the first time today in YEARS. And I lived! The mission makes you grow in more ways than one. Darn you, zone activity and peer pressure. 

This week we found a purete *cool* couple. Mauro and Leticia. They are awesome and a lucha [fight] because-- Well Mauro especially. He's gone through about six different religions and he's decided that none of them are true. So we're like, okay, we can handle that. The problem is that he does his daily scripture study... and his daily internet search. We all know what's online about Joseph Smith. We're like Mauro, if you want the best bread do you go to the bar or the panaderia[bakery]? Like... Go to the source!! He just needs to take a step of faith and he'll be golden. Pray for them, would you??

Sergio is awesome, for all those that asked. He is rapidly finishing his Faith in God booklet. 

Pensamiento del dia [thought of the day]-- The Atonement is so amazing. Literally, everyone's tarea [homework] this week is to read about the Atonement in true to the faith. If anyone ever tells you that its Adam's fault that he transgressed and stuff you just tell them FALSE. The Plan is perfect. Yes, Adam fell, with the purpose of progression. And Jesus Christ has already made up for the Fall with His resurrection, AND MORE. Do your tarea. I don't have time to write it all. 

XD 

Hahahah enjoy your week y'all. Peacin' out from 107.9 degrees farenheit.

" The cool thing about paraguay: They don't have dia de gracias [Thanksgiving] to get in the way of their christmas celebrations! There are santas and bells in all the store windows. Also mangos and watermelon and blooming flowers. It's a weird mix."
