Ciudad Evita 2!
This week was so busy.
During the week we did so many service projects and I just love it. We
sewed...and so I finally know how and have mastered it, I feel like Betty. (:
And we helped the ward get ready for the activity on Friday. The activity we
attended was all of the wards in the stake were assigned a country to present
and to make food from that country. It was so awesome. And even more awesome
because we have 3 investigators attend. This ward is so great and just support
and love the missionaries so much. My second day and all the rest of the days
of the week we had members accompany with our appointments.
It was recent converts
birthday and so because I never ate Asado here she cooked asado. Asado is like
a big cook off with a ton of different kinds of meat. But she cooked these
black sausage things, called morcillas. And the translation is English is cow
blood. In the moment I didn’t know what it was. But after I was disgusted. It
has the most interesting texture and is extremely salty. Haha.
On Friday we also had a
motivational speaker conference with the son of Elder Packer, one of the twelve
apostles. It was so great because all we spoke about was having the spirit with
us always and the importance of our investigators feel this peace and comfort. In
the afternoon, we determined to find a new investigator to teach with the
spirit and baptize a convert. And so we found Maria, she is 22 years old and
lives in front of members! How great right? The connection and the support she
has. She is very quiet but wants to learn more about Heavenly Father and why we
are so happy. And best of all she accepted the invitation to be baptized. I
know that when we teach with the spirit and have the Holy Ghost with us all
always we are literally a light to people who don’t have this constant
companionship. My mission president said that when we have a smile always
people will recognize your light and happiness and will literally want to be
with you a lot because they feel this happiness and influence in their lives. I
know that when we are obedient and close to our Heavenly Father we can feel
this peace and love of him. We only have to want it and humble ourselves to
have this desire and beautiful gift.
I love this area and I
love my companion so much.
Love you, Everyone!
Love,
Hermana Davis
