MONDAY we were told that it was only a 30-minute
walk to the beach Huanchaco, so we decided go to the beach. We didn`t really
know how to get there but we knew the general direction of the ocean. After an
hour and a half through what seemed like a desert we made it and walked along
the beach which was super nice. I also found this baby head out in the middle
of the desert
TUESDAY packed up my things and headed
to my new area in Florenciea de Mora which is a lot more compacted than my last
area and is just pure city, so I get to say good bye to the sand for now. Got
my companion Elder Casco from Ecuador and we dropped my stuff off in our room
and then contacted all day. My highlight of this day is that I got to take a
shower for the first time in over a week which felt really good.
WEDNESDAY wasn`t very interesting we had
a district meeting and proselyted.
THURSDAY was pretty much a repeat of Wednesday
but instead of a district meeting we cleaned this guys guinea pig cages (
because lots of people have guinea pig farms because I’ve been told they taste
good).
FRIDAY was a repeat of Thursday minus
the guinea pigs. We found a recent convert less active family. The father of
the family works all day, which leaves the wife with the five children all
under the age of 9 with one of them being deaf.
SATURDAY was good. All of our appointments
fell and we did a lot of contacting with this returned missionary who went with
us. When we got back to our room I had to prepare a talk for Sunday so i stayed
up writing it until the next year. The fireworks were real crazy because here
it`s super dense with people and almost everyone has fireworks. So it was
pretty insane and within 5 minutes the entire city was covered with smoke you
couldn`t see anything, only the flashes of light.
SUNDAY morning everyone started to
finish up their parties. Our church starts at 8 so there was hardly anybody there.
I was first to speak and as I got up I noticed that my mission president was in
the congregation for some reason. The rest of the day went as usual.
