Transfer 4 Week 3 Leon:

Okay...

Well this week was really fast. We did intercambios in Madrid, so that always makes the week go by really fast. We visited a bunch of pueblos this week too, which is always fun because it reminds me of Texas for some reason.

LUNES:

Well after we wrote you guys we had had 2 Leccion's planned but the both failed but we had brought Lucy with us so then we passed by one of members houses named Lesdy. So we swung by, and visited her for a little while, drank a cola-cola and went to the piso.

So i ended up giving some of my clothes to Lucy because I'm like 98% sure that I'm leaving Leon at the end of this transfer, so i had to get rid of some stuff. So she loved that , and were like the same size so it all fit her well!

MARTES:

Well we had a lesson with Hortensia, who was a little sad because her son is about to leave for his mission in Brazil, Fortaleza. Then we went to La Baneza because we were supposed to have a lesson with Angeli who is that member that we found there, but she texted us right after we got there, and told us that she couldn't meet so we decided to pass by this reference that we had, but the lived like 20 minutes outside of La Baneza, and there wasn't a bus so we had to take a Taxi, which was crazy expensive but we got there. So he dropped us off at this like ranch style house, with a pool and a flock of giant dogs (Herd?) and so obviously we timbered (Rang the outside doorbell). Two blonde girls came out...  The first real blonde girls I have ever met here. They don't have blonde people, everyone is brunette. That's why they always assume that I am American, because I have blondish hair. Okay, anyhow they were 18, and 14 and were named Jessica and Sara. So we taught them, and found out that they had come to the capilla with their grandparents who are members before, but their grandparents live in Barcelona so they only go when their grandparents are visiting. Anyhow, they were really sweet, and it was a crazy miracle to even find their house, let alone teach them. So after that we took a taxi back to LA Baneza, and then a bus back to Leon. Then Bed.

MIERCOLES:

Okay, so we ended up passing by Hortenisa again just to give her a shoulder to cry on, because she is taking her son leaving on a mission pretty hard, so we cried with her a little then we had district meeting.  Then we went to have a lesson with our new investigator named Aida, who is Colombian. So we got there and walked into her piso and found our other investigator Vetter! So turns out he is renting a room from her, so we had a lesson with both of them which was awesome. Two baptisms, one font?   Anyhow, that was cool, but after that we went and taught fanny who is a member. We taught her about how we feel after we truly repent, which she loved. #Alma 36:20....   Then we talked with her for a little while and then we back to the piso.

JUEVES:

We planned for the week, which is cool, but it always take forever.. But it is cool because we can really see all of the new people we taught , and who is really progressing. So after that we took a bus to Santa Maria del Parramo, and then from there we took a taxi to Billar del yermo, which is the tiny Pueblo where Isabel lives. Isabel is a member who used to live leon, but oved for a job to this tiny pueblo. She is a Shepard of sheep. So we visited hr, ate some beans and rice, and then went and played with her sheep. Just the baby ones. It was so fun, but I smelled a little sheepy afterward. Worth it. Then we went back to Leon, and had Correlacion with pedro. Then we Visited Maria Dolores who is doing really good.

VIERNES:

So We had planned the night before to wake up a 5am, so that we could get ready, and leave at 6 so we could make our train at 6:50. So the alarm went off, and i looked at my watch, and it was already 6:00am. So we scrambled around packed, then ran to the train station. So we get on the train a realize that the office Elders bought us the long train to Madrid, that take 5 hours instead of 2& 1/2. So we slept, and played uno. Then we did Intercambios, I was with HNA Brotherson, who is a machine. It was really fun.

SABADO:

SO we took a train back to Leon, and then had MEdio-Dia, and then went to the Rivera's to have a going away party for Mosiah. We made cookies. #NO BAKES... Then we went to Maribel's. So the whole family was there  together once again, Maribel, Moises, Emily, Alan. So we taught them how to read a scripture story and make it fun, so they can really learn something by applying the scriptures to them selves. So we read the story about Nephi and when he is building a ship. It was way fun. Then they gave us some Cola-coa, and I taught Emily how to play the guitar a little bit, and we got to see some pictures of the when they were younger. Then we went home.

DOMINGO:

So we had church (Obviously) then went to eat at the piso. Then We went to visit Carmen in the hospital with Pedro and Narcisa, Our mission Leader and his wife. Then they took us in their car to drop us off at a lesson, but then we took a detour and went to get hot chocolate, so I felt a little guilty for that, but they bought so... Then we went to our lesson with fanny, which was super fun, and she promised to make us Maris Sonando which is this super Dominican drink with milk, and sugar, and orange juice.. It's super rich. Then home.

LUNES:

I Felt super bad all day, don't know why but we cleaned, then went to say goodbye to Mosiah, at the train station. He just left for his mission today, but his family drove down to the airport in Madrid to tell him goodbye, so we didn't see them. Then we ate Dominoes, and no were writing. Anyhow! Then week was really good, and really busy.

Oh I found out today that I will Leave to go home on January 9th, 2018. So in about 11 months. It's so soon. Crazy. Well I hope that I can Extend and Stay for 2 yrs. That would be Awesome....

Well I love you all and I hope that you have a great week!
