I have been thinking about Addi all week! It sounds like she came on a Wednesday? I counted really fast so its possible that I'm wrong I couldn't take my shoes off to count my toes!
As for this week it was fairly eventful! We had divisiones with the zone leaders. They came to our house Wednesday
night and slept on our extra mattresses! There are different kinds of
divisiones and they chose to do this because Dominos delivers to our
house and not theirs! The hard thing is that we had to divide our area
in half and visit people on one half. It was not easy! I was with Elder
Castillo. He is also from Peru! Closer to Lima. Elder Vallenas is from
Cuzco. It is right by Machu Pitchu!
Anyways
that was fun and its always a long day because both of you think you
need to show each other how good of a missionary you are so you do
everything insanley fast. Elder Castillo is like 6` 2¨ and a little
round, but boy he walks so fast and he didn't have a clue where we were
going!!
We taught this lady the word of wisdom
because she asked about it and when we were done she told us she had a
problem with some of it. We asked her which parts and she picked up the
flower pot on the table and tipped the flowers upside down and 3 bags
of cocaine fell on the table. That was new! So we took them and flushed
them down the toilet with her permission! Needless say we won't eat or
drink anything from her house!
Also, this week
we were in a taxi and we got pulled over by the police. They made us get
out and they patted us down and asked for our papers! Then we just
talked to them while they made sure we werent criminals! I thought it
was cool!
A new sister missionary arrived in
our district and the sisters are now a trio! We thought it was a joke at
first but then it wasn't. She didn't have a mattress so the zone leaders
took one of ours! We had extras but still! They just put it on the roof
of a taxi and held on to it from inside the car: Welcome to Colombia!
They then returned to sleep with us last night because someone tried to break into the sisters apartment so they switched houses for now!
I have a baptism 4 of August!
I have interviews with President and Sister Whitesides tomorrow so that will be my time to talk to them! And yes I can print them off! Also, transfers aren't for another 3 weeks!
I love you guys I hope all is well and thank you for the pictures she is adorable! Stay strong!
Con Amor,
Elder Reese
