I haven´t been counting the weeks, so I honestly have no idea what number we´re at, but i do know that in 2 weeks i´ll have 7 MONTHS so somebody tell me how many weeks that is :) This week was super busy, and i really enjoyed it.
Tuesday: We had our last district meeting of the transfer (since tomorrow we have zone conference) and it was actually really good! We discussed some deep doctrine about the Holy Ghost that was pretty cool. In the afternoon we had our first real appointment with Dennys!! I don´t know if I´ve talked about him yet, but a few weeks ago he ran up to us (He was very very drunk) when we were walking home in the night and asked us if we taught about God, and that he wanted to learn. In the weeks following he was always drunk so we weren´t able to teach him, but this day we were lucky enough to find him sane! And he really needs that gospel in his life, I feel so privaledged to be able to help him learn about all the blessings that our Heavenly Father has in store for him.
Wednesday: WE had intercambios and I was in an area called Tiquipaya with Hermana Ballard (she is one of our capacitadoras) and it was so fun! I always like the opportunities to be with gringas because they are so easy to relate to! It was a good day. :)
Thursday: In the morning we did a service project in the morning with a dog shelter. It was kind of funny at the beginning because The people that worked there said, Ok, all the elderes can come over here and help build these dog shelters and all the heavy lifting, and the hermanas can come over here and pick up all the dog poop and wash their dishes. I will not lie, i wasn´t very happy to hear that, especially since my personality is that i wanted to do the heavy lifting with the elderes (and i felt my little feminist streak coming out). But we ended up getting done pretty quickly with all the cleaning and helped the elders with the dog shelters. At one point the elders were all super tired and wanted to stop working for a while, and nobody wanted to take a certain wheel barrow of rocks, so i took it. :) I felt good about it haha, and everyone thought it was pretty cool that an hermana was doing some heavy lifting (but like i said, i would rather do heavy lifting than pick up poop). It was a fun morning :) (Her bishop's wife sent me some video on facebook messenger. I saved the video to my facebook page. I couldn't figure out how to copy it and send it with the email so you will have to go to fb to see it.)
Friday: Today was another average missionary day. Sorry that i don´t have a ton of memories of Friday.
Saturday: The Elders that we share out area with had a baptism and it was super beautiful. They are two young women, sisters, and we were so excited for them. It was interesting because they kind of felt like my converts, even though they weren´t. :)
Sunday: Just your average Sunday. :) Spreading the Gospel one person at a time. :)
Monday: Today we went to some waterfalls that people said were going to be really cool but actually were a little lame haha. But it´s alright, at least it was something fun to do. :)
That about sums up the week! Bolivia is a pretty cool place, and I love it a little bit more everyday :)

She said her apartment is very nice. I think it is the nicest one she has been in...
