Hello all,

What a great week in Las Lomas!

We had some really good days and some really long days with lots of walking up and down hills.

The members here are really nice and willing to help us.

Food of the Week:

Well this week we had to trek up a super long hill to get to two of our lunches. We ate twice with Hermana Liliana. She served us some good chicken the first day. Then the next day she fed us real pasta. Fettuccini alfredo to be exact with meat balls and marinara sauce too!! BOOM!! So yeah that lunch was really good.

Funny story of the week:

So this week Elder Lambert was kind of mad at me for no reason and I was in a really cheerful mood. So I was walking with a spring in my step and I decided to jump over a medium sized rock in the middle of the sidewalk. And boom! All my hand out cards and pens and my agenda fell out of my pocket onto the dirty Mexican street, so that made Elder Lambert Laugh. Really Really Hard! SO yeah

So Wednesday was an amazing day, Let me tell you about it in detail.

So Tuesday night we traveled over to the zone leader’s house to stay the night so we could play basketball the next morning. So we got there and there was like 4 other companionships. We ordered 5 things of dominos and went to bed on the floor. I was smart and lay by the fan. So we woke up at 4:45, a little bit earlier than I would have liked to but we ran to the basketball court and played a good hour. Fun stuff. So then we went back to the zone leader’s house and 10 of us shared two showers. We went to the church building for meetings and in the District leaders meeting I shared a miracle I had the day before.

The Miracle of the Purple Shirts:

So as we were starting the day Elder Lambert asked me to pick a color. And then the color I chose he made me contact any person wearing that color. So I chose purple thinking nobody would be wearing purple. Boy was I wrong. Like every other person was wearing Purple and I had like 22 contacts in an hour. The Lord spreads his word in so many different ways.

So yeah later that day as we were walking to lunch I was telling Elder Lambert how much I hate the sun and he told me something, being somewhat annoyed at my complaining, He said "Venga lo que venga, Disfrútelo" and he wouldn’t tell me what it meant so I got ticked cause I couldn’t figure what it meant. So I asked the zone leaders what it meant and they said " What Comes, Comes So enjoy it." and then after seeing that I figured it our Elder Lambert Said "Come What may and Love it." so I have put that to heart and am trying to not complain about my circumstances anymore but trying to see the good in it all.

Still that day we went with a return missionary named Itzel. She just got back like 2 months ago is such a good asset when coming to lessons. We taught a few good lessons and head home.

What a good week of hard work.

Love you all.
