so
this week has been sorta a bummer a lot has changed and im sorta feelin
like i don't belong here BUT suck it up córdoba cause IM HERE TO STAY ;P
so i have a new comp, snakes, apostasy... + bronchitis ( i have no idea
how to spell that hahah )
so
my new comps name is elder jiménez and hes from peru hes really smart,
loves ready, super composed, and is super clever with the doctrine. he
also is a DIRTY creature! i dont know if he doesn't know how to clean or
if he just doesn't like cleaning. doesn't know how to work. Yesterday we
had service were we had to clear a backyard of like this crazy pincher
tree with machetes/ hatchets and then walk the weeds 2 blocks to the
communal garbage and well he didnt do anything... this 5ft 4 intellectual
just sat there and whining and watching so we were there for 5 hrs as i
did it all + to add on to that IM SICK!!!! ive got bronkidis/ an
infection in my lungs were its really hard for me to breath and i have a wicked cough!!! like i puked in the church yesterday because i was coughing I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THAT COULD HAPPEN!!! hes also a HUGE RULE
KEEPER like for instance its P-DAY and im in FULL FREAKIN MISSIONARY
CLOTHS because the rule book says that if we aren't playing sports or
doing an activity we need to be in the uniform.......... so long story
short Hes basically the exact opposite of me!!!! really funny heavenly
father really funny...... so these next weeks are gonna be really
interesting. PRAY FOR ME PLEASE !!!
hah
super funny story we are in the house of our investigators and the
daughters name is sophie and well shes got a huge crush on me hahah so
after the lesson were sitting there talking and she turns to me and
askes "do you have kids?" i was like WHAT nope sofia i dont have kids
she then askes "do you have a girlfriend" i cracked a joke like nope
sofia i cant get a girl to put up with me. she then asks "can you have
girlfriends during the mission?" at this moment my convert Sister
Gonzalez just starts BUSTIN OUT LAUGHING saying " hey jackson ask her
why she wants to know !!!" i then just bust out belly laughing too like
really?!?! sofia just got all red and sorta just sat there smiling
hahaha TO FUNNY !!!
so
like i said my comp is very savey with the rules of the mission and how
the church is supposed to run. like this kid studys bishop manuals of
the church and stuff like that crazy. but here in capilla del monte we
are whats called a sect of another area so basically the rules say that
we have to go thru them to do anything give callings plan activitys
everything but as second counceler of the bishopric i was not aware of
these rules same with our bishop who has been a member for 1 year so
weve been giving out calling like candy to try and get the less actives
to come back to church. and as result of these calling and basically how
we have been doing things he very bluntly told me that the area capilla
del monte should be closed because of its apostasy...... i just looked
at him like DUDE GO BACK TO THE MISSION OFFICE!!! yes this ward is not perfect and yes we have a lot of things to change but come on!!! haha he
got all heated and called the president of the mission then after that
he was like im about to have a long talk with the bishop about all of
this and i was like ok good luck i know more about the church than he
does AND THATS SAYING SOMETHING!!! he told me that instead of baptizing
were just gonna work on reactivating and fixing our ward sooooooooo yeah
hahah i dont know it didnt seem that bad before a little unorganized
but not apostasy. ive decided to just play really dumb for the next
couple weeks and let him do his thing :P
i love you guys so much and i hope everything is going good>!!!!
PLEASE PRAY FOR ME!!!
BE GOOD (mom)
love you!!!!!
Josh
