woah, there is so much i could say about this week i dont even know where to start!
first ill start by saying, here in Puno i am never hungry. there is always plenty of food. its usually the same food but there is usually a lot of it. and luckyily, ive lived on potatoes a lot of my life so thats not some weird crazy adjustment. although they arent as good as mashed poatoes and grazy back home. thats stuff was prime.
but we have been getting to work! its awesome. it seems here that the work isnt about baptizing as much here, it has become the work of the rescue. there are actually a lot of members, but they were never really converted and were just kind of baptized. the majority of our lessons are with people who have already been baptiazed and went inactive something like 2 weeks after. it makes it interesting because they already know some of the doctroctine/ they just dont really understand it.
but the days fly with all the work we have to do. we are constantly going.
anyway, funny story, the other day i really wished i could have videoed this guy. we were walking back form an appointment when we saw this guy who was obviously super drunk. and better yet, there were 3 or four dogs thats didnt seem to like him much and we running around him barking. and he was freaking out, but was drunk. she he was stubbling around and kicking in slow motion. and better yet, he decieded he should try and pee on these dogs! oh my, it was so funny. then he fell over so we went over and helped back home. my gosh it was so funny though. i want to video it and send it back saying at least im better than that guy.
anyway, the mssion is great though! i miss yall but this is where im supposed to be. i know cause God anwsers prayers.
anyway! love yall
