Well sadly I can’t say much happened this week. For
basically most of this week my companion has been sick so we have just been
chillin’ in our house. When he wasn’t sick we have been busy going to all the
wards in Cusco helping out their primary choirs prepare for a primary Christmas
program we had on Saturday. I guess my companion is the only person in Cusco
who can play piano or something.
I do have a pretty funny story, though, of something that
happened this week. So a few weeks ago I contacted a guy and then Tuesday we
were finally able to talk to him. He also basically told us his whole life
story and that he has epilepsy and that he has been feeling really bad because
of all the hate in the world and that he has been praying to God asking him
when the world was going to end. Anyway so we shared our message and everything
and made another appointment for Friday. So on Friday when we were leaving our
pension’s house, we ran in to him and he was wearing Sunday clothes and he
asked us if we were going to church right now. He accidentally got our
appointment mixed up with when we have our church meetings. Anyway so we
explained to him that we just had an appointment. He then told us that we
couldn’t go to his house anymore because he said if his mom sees us there again
that she would throw water on us. I guess she thinks that we are the witch from
Wizard of Oz and that we'll melt or something. Anyway we told him we would pass
by just to pick him up for church but later he told us that he wouldn’t be able
to make it this week.
As for anything else that happened this week we just went to
the primary Christmas program on Saturday which was good but it was basically
just singing. It was funny though because basically our entire zone went to
watch it.
As for when I’m going to call right now I’m thinking I’ll
probably be on around 1:00 to 3:00 or sometime around there. I’m glad Ill be
able to talk to everyone though. For a while I was thinking it might just be you
and Kendall or something. But yea the connection will be better, I’ll be
calling at a member’s house. Also I’ll be using Skype again. But yea as for Christmas
music, I can’t say I’m a fan of the Latino Christmas music. It does not feel
like Christmas music at all. But yea I’ll see you guys in a few days when we
talk. But until then have a good week and I love you all.
