| Catching an iguana |
Anyways... I don't even know where to start this week was so sick. We tried to visit everyone that we've been working with a bunch just in case anyone left. On Tuesday, we had an amazing dinner with a gringo member who lives out here. He's Toyota's lawyer for Puerto Rico, and has SUCH a nice place out by the beach up here. It was cool to be able to spend some time with him. He talked a bunch about his mission in Chile. He's heading back there this weekend, and is super excited. He was sharing stories of emails he's getting years later with people that are now baptized with completely changed lives that he only talked to like once. It's crazy to think that just one contact with someone can have on their entire life. It definitely motivates me to want to work hard.
We also tried something pretty cool to find. We headed out to one of the beaches out here, and drew the Plan of Salvation out on the sidewalk in chalk. As people walked by and asked what we were doing we just started talking about it and setting up some other time to visit them. It was super fun, and we actually found some really cool people. I also think I saw the most gorgeous sunset of my life that evening. Puerto Rico is such an awesome place.
I legit don't think we had a single bad moment. I also caught my first Iguana this week. There aren't all that many iguanas out here in the city, so when we saw a couple, Elder Shah and I had to go after them. Iguanas are the funniest looking things ever when they run. If you haven't seen one run before, I would highly advise looking up a video of it.
Then I finished off the week on Sunday, by giving a talk during church and giving a baptismal interview which was a super cool experience. After which, we headed home to find out our house wasn't yellow anymore. It was blue. In just a couple hours, without us even knowing, they painted our entire house from yellow to blue.
