Hahaha, so our week started
out interesting when we had to run to the house of a member for our exercises
to get our clean laundry because we literally had 0 clothes for the day and she
wasn't going to be home later in the day. But the good news is that we
had our clothes in time :)
As for the earthquake,
we didn't feel it at all here in the south, and the family of Hermana Barrios
is fine. Sorry that once again I don't have any cool stories to share.
We had a really fun
week full of fiestas for the 18 de septiembre. In our District meeting we
played with an emboque (I'm an expert, ask my companion), and we laughed a lot.
The 18 de septiembre
was full of empanadas and happiness because empanadas = happiness :) haha
The 19th we went with
our investigador Gloria to an activity in Fresia for the fiestas patrias, and
more importantly for her baptismal interview! WOOHOO! Now we've offically
scheduled her baptism for the 25th at 6:00, and she is so happy.
We've seen her progress a ton in these past few weeks :) In the activity
I dressed in a vestido de china, a typical dress to dance la cueca, which is a
typical dance in Chile. I guess you could say I'm very Chilean now, not
counting my blonde hair or my gringa face, but they're only minor details haha
:) More empanadas, I learned to use el trompo, and I made a friend with
una niña from the branch in Fresia.
And last but not least
we found out cambios, and we're both staying here in Frutillar :D
Hope you all enjoy your
week!
Stay sweet,
Hermana Coombs
