This week will forever be stuck in my mind and is possibly
the worst week I will ever had on my mission.
Let’s start with last Monday.
Well last week Elder Prows somehow lost his wallet so we
were probably not going to be able to buy groceries for that week. And I don’t
have my own personal debit card, so my mother found a way to send me some money
for me to use. So I wanted to jump at that opportunity and have food for this
week. We had just enough money to get to Centro where I could pick up money. We
paid the Taxista, but the place we went wouldn’t let me get cash out because I didn’t
have my passport which is in Tuxtla with the Assistants. So we were already in debt
to the Taxista and so we said we could pay him at the other place and so he
drove us there but at that bank we had the same situation. So now we were in
deep and didn’t know what to do. We eventually called our District leader and had
the taxi drive us to them and our district leader paid our large debt for us.
So we got that resolved, but no new groceries for this week.
So the next day I woke up with a really sore throat and a
very very congested head. So I slept in for an hour or two. We went to lunch
and then came back and I slept a long while. Wednesday was the same pretty much; my congestion got worse.
And we tried to go work in the night but that just made me very tired. Thursday came, and I still felt the same. So we decided
finally to go to the doctor. He told me I have Grippa which is kind of like the
Mexican flu. So he prescribed me a little bit of medicine to help me out. But
then Elder Prows decided to get help for his ingrown toe. So the Doctor did a
little surgery and bandaged him up. So we couldn’t work for 2 more days.
Friday, I spent the day sleeping and cutting pictures out of
the Liahona to glue into my journal, just to spice up my journal for future
visitations. So yeah. I decided that I want to finish the Book of Mormon for
the first real time. The other times I have read it, my head has been up in the
clouds and stuff. So I started reading if from where I was at like Alma 30.
Saturday I felt much better with just a runny nose. We
started working after lunch and had a small lesson with a certain carlos.
Nothing other than that happened.
Sunday was great and we had a girl at church that received
the gift of the Holy Ghost in Sacrament and I kept on reading the Book of
Mormon. We gave a blessing to this old women and she was very grateful for us.
So that’s basically
the week for you.

I would like to share a little article out of the Liahona
with you, It is from the First presidency message a while back. It is by
President Uchtdorf. It is titled Always in the Middle, here is the link:
https://www.lds.org/ensign/2012/07/always-in-the-middle?lang=eng
It talks about how we are always in the middle and as a
missionary we should think that we are always in the middle and we can
contribute a ton no matter how new we are.
President Uchtdorf explains it a lot better.
Love you all,
Elder Pugmire
