Dear Fam fam,
Funny story... for you guys at least. On Monday that one Snakey Girl from the terminal (that time when I was picking up Elder Villabla) appeared again. She suddenly appeared and she was all like "hey what`s up blah blah blah". I tried to escape by saying "we have an appointment", but she said "oh okay I`ll go with you", so we walked around for half an hour doing contacts with her bugging us. She left for a little bit after getting bored, but she came back. She repeated this like five times. I don`t know how she kept finding us, but she did. When we got back to the pension we drew drawings of her as a giant snake and I had to fight her. Tuesday The snake found us again at the terminal while we were waiting for a bus after district meeting. We were with two more missionaries and one is tall and blond, but she didn`t even notice them, just me. More drawings of snake battles at night.
Wednesday we ate lunch and then did divisions. I was with Elder Rodeback from Minnesota. It was a nice break talking in English. Elder Rodeback must be lucky or something because the people that I really wanted to visit were home and we had great lessons with them. First was Andrea and Eulogio and Rosa Velazquez. They are kind of progressing. Then we finally found military guy Sergio Sosa and finally taught him the Restoration. Good lesson, accepted Baptismal Invitation.
Thursday we tried setting up the map. Tape doesn`t work with styrofoam. Wasted 2 hours of Plan Guasu trying to do that. Gave up though. Ate spagetti for lunch. That morning Elder Rodeback broke the water tank, so we had to stick around 2 hours after lunch while the Dueño tried to fix it. Didn`t do a good job.
Friday we talked to Carlos Faraone again. He said he would read the Book of Mormon and look for an answer, but he would not, I repeat NOT, accept a baptismal date. He kept saying "don`t rush me Singson" and I would say "It`s just a goal, we won`t baptize you if you aren`t ready", but he wouldn`t accept. Later we taught Victor who actually has been reading the Book of Mormon. All he needs to do now is start praying and go to church. The last option is going to be hard though because he is taking a long vacation to visit his family in Argentina and he won`t be back until the end of January. Ugh.
Saturday we ate rotisary chicken for lunch and Lomito Arabe for dinner. I didn`t have to pay for any of it. It made me happy. Sunday there was a football game and nobody let us talk to them. They all went crazy afterwards. I kinda felt like I was in danger.
That was my week. Bwye bwye,
Elder Zachary James Singson
