Welp, here we go...

I ended my first cambio! WOOOOHOOOO!!! and the big change..... nada. im still here and I still got mi papi! No complaints, its a good life aqui and im loving the ward and trainer. The only change that we have in all of our pension is Elder Vargas, the mexican, is leaving. its sad, I feel like we got some awesome unity in our pension and now we are going to have an argentine in with us. It shall be great still though!

Rough week for numbers, again. Gosh, that seems to be a good struggle right now. Some people want to talk with us, but then they dont want to have anything else with us after that.... tisk tisk. Not a lot we can do about it but pray and keep working. we are here for the elect, those who are ready adn wanting to receive of the blessings, we just gotta find them. On the plus side Felipe attended church again and this time stayed the whole time! WOOT! and his son came too who at first said "i dont know why my dad brought me here" and was listening to his cellphone in the primary, but then had a great time and he is not baptized so I tihnk we will be teaching him lots more! The sad news, Gabriel told us that he had to go to the beach in stead of church.... really? ugh.... haha

It was a pretty regular week, only have a few exciting things to write about. and the first the crazy lady that lves on the top of the hill. so we were going to talk to ranet, the african english contact lady, and her neighbor and her were outside holding a little puppy that was beaten up from some street dogs. They were very sad and they came and told us the whole story, so we tried to help with what we could, cause we were suppossed to have a lesson with ranet, which ended up getting rescheduled. In stead, we heard how much she LOVES her dogs, and not just once or twice but like ten times. We found out from ranet that she has memory loss. Then she explained to us how good people are reincarnated into dogs after this life, and the bad people become rats. and she taught us that probably 3 or 4 times. haha Finally we rescheduled when we could come and teach her and ranet on another day. it was quite interesting.

For this next part, I give a warning to those who dislike spiders. Well I saw my first "pollito" or in other words GIANT TURANTULA! (sp?) !!!! It was SO COOL! haha I found out that they are not dangerous, dont bite, arent poisoness, but they are about the size of my palm, and then the legs. seriously just HUGE! haha I loved it! we got some good pictures, so once I find a chord for my camera, ill let everyone know of our cool find! it was great!

Thats pretty much all the excitement that I had this week. Starting up another cambio, and it should be great! I cant believe the last day of this cambio is january 1st, 2012! whoa! and elder Yost goes home on december 27th, so idk what I am going to do for those last few days! haha but here goes to another week!

Elder Marvin =D
