October 27th-
Hello ya´ll. Well this past week was most interesting. Since the people here are really catholic, there was a catholic "Saint" going around this week, el señor de los milagros. During this whole month they celebrate and carry around this saint, and it just happened to be that is past week they happened to do it in our area. Everyone just kept starring at us wondering why we werent carrying it around, and why we werent dressed it purple....needless to say it was weird, but we did find some members, that we know have to talk to. :)
Also this week. we had the visit from Elder Waddell, the first consolor of the area seventy. He came and spoke to everyone in chiclayo, but decided to come and pay us a special visit. We were with him Friday from 11am-7pm without lunch. But it was really good he said a lot of good stuff that we can use to help more people. Also we were able to take a picture with him, unlike the 200 missionarys in Chiclayo...see foto.
Also Saturday and Sunday we were able to listen to Elder Cabrera for stake conference, interesting fact...Both Elder Waddell and Elder Cabrera started out saying the exact same things, with the exact same scriptures, but neither one of them planned on talking about that subject. As for the musical numbers. With elder Waddell we were able to get a couple of us together, and we sang a song, and I think it came out alright. For Elder Cabrera, I was going to play the piano to the song lord I will follow thee and this older elder was going to sing, in the priesthood session. However once President Williams came, he said that we shouldnt go to that session...so we didnt go or do it. :)
Everything is all good down here, we just had a interesting time and week here, but we are good. Questions?
