Hey guys! This week went by super fast. I would like to share the super strange things about Colombia and my area quickly. First, people drive with no care for others or their own personal safety. Like the other day in a taxi, our driver was swerving in and out of traffic with no care.. Next, There was this guy today that got on our bus, and started playing the harp. Casually playing the harp..... So in my area Villa Javier, there are a ton of hills. My areas nickname is the Hills. And I do not mean like tortellini drive in front of the Shumans house,I mean like it feels as if I am climbing Kings Peak again. It is terrible and nice at the same time. Everyone here falls through on citas, or appointments with us. Even the members who say they have lunch for us. So a lot of the time I eat like 10 rolls everyday.. Which is not the most healthy thing to do. The bread here is sooooo good. But this week in missionary work was super hard and depressing. We got into 2 new homes and one of them was super interested. She has been taking the first lesson now for almost 5 years. And everytime she has told the missionaries that she is not interseted. She says she has the Bible and that is all that is needed to make it to our Father in Heaven again. Well, that changed with our lesson. I told her to ask all the questions that she wanted because we wanted her to understand more. Well, for the first time ever, she said we could come back and, I promised her as she read the Book of Mormon, she would feel the desire to follow Christ and be baptized. And then I asked her to prepare herself to be baptized on the 25th of Novemberand she accepted!! I felt the Spirit so strong in that meeting it was awesome. I hope all of you are doing great! Talk to ya next week.
