This week was a week of "firsts" again. Those are always fun. Sometimes its a little hard to adjust with a new companion and a new area. But not this time! My companion is super great. I'm loving this area.
Monday was my first day en Ensenada. Did a lot of unpacking, washing, shopping, and teaching. It went pretty well.
Tuesday was my first Zone Conference with my new zone. We've got some pretty high goals and things to work on. But it's possible and it'll be good. Also my first Consejo de Barrio.
Wednesday was our first normal day of work. We had a lot of lessons, met some of the investigators and members. We also found our first new investigator as a companionship and committed her to baptism. She went to church this week with her entire familia. So we're pretty excited about that.
Thursday first planning session with my companerita. She's so great. We're working really well together.
Friday another normal day of teaching. Except in the morning there was a soccor game and no one would answer the door...even though we could hear them and they knew we were there.... :(
Saturday a really slow day. Everyone was preparing for Fathers day and didn-t want to let us in.
Sunday everyone was drunk.... Okay not everyone...just the investigadores. We had very few lessons because everyone had family visiting and couldn't recieve us.
Today we had an "activity" with the other hermanas. Really we did some shopping. They have some great little Segundas, which is a tienda with used clothes. But there are some really nice ones with really cheap clothes. I bought some great skirtts for 20-30 pesos each. In one of the little stores they were selling Easter candy. And you'll never guess what I found. Cadbury eggs. Needless to say, I bought some (3 pesos for a bag..please. I bought 4). And then we ate some really really good hamburgers.
Thats about all the news I have. We had a baptism scheduled for this week. But we went to our appointmetn and he wasnt there, hasnt answered his phone and didn-t come to church....so yeah...
Hope all is well with you guys. My mom keeps me updated on weddings, pregnancies, and babies. So Congrats to everyone that has had one of thos recently. I would write you all personally, but I don-t know anyones email addresses...hint hint. haha Thanks to everyone for your support and your prayers. Love you all
