CAJAMARCA!!!!!!! I am literally dying from weather that is so
cold! So cold! I literally sleep with 5 blankets and 2 pairs of socks and use a
big coat and. I have a cold. No joke. I’m about to go buy a bunch of leggings
or tights or something. It also rains a lot here. So that’s great. And its
Carnival season so I got hit by 3 water balloons yesterday. Ali probably would
have chased that person down and killed them...but Hermana Lee laughed and kept
walking singing "he is a child of God." hahaha. But yeah, cold. And
Shiloh told me that it is 64 degrees right now. And today is much colder than
yesterday... wow. I know I am such a baby.
okay so I live in the upstairs apartment of a...well I can’t
remember how to say it...but the person makes a lot of alcohol from
grapes....vino but I don’t know in English...haha. Cajamarca is for sure
different from my other areas. But we walk a lot and we’ve had some great
lessons! We taught one of our investigators who didn’t feel ready for her
baptism this week. She couldn’t explain why. She has a strong testimony and
shares the gospel with her freinds. Jaqui has 18 years and lives with her
sister who is a member. So we taught a lot about the spirit this last week. And
then last night we did the baptism questions (I don’t know why we didn’t do
this before) and it was so powerful. She shared her testimony with each answer.
And then when we did the last question, if she was ready and willing to do a
covenant with God, she answered so casually and naturally "ya of
course" and then when she realized what she said, she just cried and was
so happy. She hugged us and said over and over "in getting baptized!"
She is so prepared. The spirit was SOOOO STRONG in the lesson. Strong, but
super intense. It was crazy. So she will get baptized this week.
It is always so sad to leave an area, but I love starting otra
vez in un new area. It is so great. It feels like I am starting the mission
over again but as an even better missionary. It is so great.
THINK OF ME every time you drink hot chocolate.
