ok so new area, comp+ the paper towel incident and the familia romero
so
im in carlos paz right now and its literally the argentine las vegas
its dope!!!! but its also HUGE!!!! its an area that needs 8 missionarys
and has had 8 missionary's in the past but now its just me and E´
peterson/ justin beiber. seriously this kid is such a goof ball
prettyboy i love him to death he reminds me of kolbe!! the kid checks
himself out more than a 15 year old girl does to funny we are always
having fun in the house! the funniest thing about him is that he has no
idea how to cook for himself!! its crazy i have no idea how he has lived
this long hes 20 and he didnt know how to make oatmeal or rice.......
so needless to say im teasing him constantly haha but ok the paper towel
incident. so i HATE the buday its not natural nothing should touch my
butthole EVER!!! so i buy toilet paper but when i got to my area i was a
lil flustered and i basically ran thru the super market just grabbing
stuff that i would need so we get home and i had to drop a fat load so i
run into the bathroom with my shopping bags. so im on the pot and it
came to pass that i had to wip so i open up the packet of toilet paper
and it was PAPER TOWELS!!!!!! i sorta had a BF on the pot and screamed
to my comp "I BOUGHT PAPER TOWELS" throwing the paper towels out of the
bathroom. so i finish my business and walk out of the bathroom and my
comp is on the floor dying laughing!!! sorta had to be their to
appriciate the story but to this day we still laugh about it ! haha + we
havent showered or cooked in like 4 days cause we ran out of gas hahah
gotta love argentina ;P
ok the familia romero is the first
family that i met here and they are really amazing. they just moved
here from mendoza with their family so theyve been apart of the ward for
about a month and their sorta wall flowers they sorta go un notised.
but it was really crazy my first day we got a message from them saying
that they had a feeling that we needed to stop by their house to teach
their 9 year old girl who isnt baptised. we get their and this little
girl is a fool!! we walk in and starting about baptism and she starts
pulling out bible scriptures and how she cant be baptised cause she was
already baptised. so we teach her the 1st leccion with super detail and
she got it all!! SUPER SMART!! then right after that the mom looks at me
and goes " hey i dont know why im telling you this but i have a smoking
problem and i want to quit can you help me ?" i looked at her like heck
yeah so the next day we came back and taught the next leccion to the
daughter then we taught the quit smoking leccion to the mom and it was
just super powerful. this poor woman was a hot mess when we as a family
destroyed her smokes. it was such a testimony builder to watch this
mother be so humble to ask a 19 year old kid to help her quit smoking it
made me think alot about the kind of person i am. am i someone who is
willing to ask for help when i need it? shes amazing. but after the
leccion we were walking away from their house and my comp stoped and
said hey we need to go buy fruit and orange juice for her now. (its
apart of the quit smoking plan) so i said ok we bought like 10 bucks of
fruit for her then went back to the house and ding dong ditched the
house. the next day we saw the husband and he told us that when they
opened the door to see our little gift and both started crying. they
told us that moneys been tight and they were worried they couldent buy
the fruits and foods till next week when he gets paid. its amazing to
see how god works with us. i know i talk about this in every letter but
dang we are all connected in gods plan and im so glad i have the
oportunity to be out here seeing it all first hand.
love you guys tons !!!! be good have fun and ill see yall in a lil
Josh
