Día de la Muerte

Pretty slow week during Tuesday-Friday, too many parties to count haha. I think I heard that Puno drinks the most beer out of all of the cities in Peru haha but man Saturday and Sunday were awesome. 

We found a new investigator Martha, I got hungry one day when we were walking to an appointment so we went into a "Tienda" I don't know what they're called in English but it's like a tiny awesome store. I bought my Doritos and decided to start talking to the lady who owns the tienda cause she was super nice. We asked Martha if we could come back the next day and teach her an awesome plan that God has for her, she said um of course and now she's listening to us! We taught her the plan of salvation yesterday and she loved it, she had so many questions and it was just honestly super cool to teach her haha. I know that's such a common missionary story but it made me realize that we have no idea who needs the gospel and we just need to talk to everyone, and with such casual conversations you can bring up the gospel. 

Our investigators are doing really well, we're teaching a boy named Benjamin, his mom Veronica has been listening to the missionaries for awhile but recently we've been teaching Benjamin more, and he wants to be baptized! He's nine years old and we love the influence he has on his mom haha, reminds me of Camila and her parents! Sara is doing really well, she comes to church super early cause she says she never wants to be a minute late or people will look at her haha. 

But yah this week ended up being a lot better than we thought it was gonna be, today we played soccer (what's new) all morning and went shopping at our beautiful Costco inspired Plazavea. I hope you all had a good Halloween! and have a good week!!! 

2 Cor. 12:9-10
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
