Week #29 ~Riding in a truck…

Hola Familia! 
This week was kind of a shorter week.  This because we had p-day on Tuesday last week so we could have interviews with president.  On p-day we had a lot of fun! We played a lot of games with water balloons.  We played lots of crazy relay games in the field behind the stake center as a district.  We played all of district p-day and it was a blast! Then after that the elders De Bolivar came for a sleep over because there bus didn’t leave until 6 in the morning, so we got to hang out with them after words
so that was really a fun day. 

Wednesday
We had divisions with the elders De Urqusa because both of our companions had to have a training in our chapel.  So I worked in the area of the other elders and then an elder that works in the office called me and asked where I was because he wanted me to go with him and inspect the houses of the missionaries in our city.   So he came and picked us up in his truck and we drove around all the city to different houses and inspected them all, it was super fun! Bonus getting to ride in a vehicle is always a blast!  You have no idea how blessed you are to have a cars to get you around.  Be thankful!

Thursday
We had divisions for another day because my comp and the zone leader need to go to Bolivar for an interviews so we had divisions again.  So I trekked over to the other elders area and we worked all day it was really fun.  They didn’t have anything planned so we contacted all day and in the night as well and then we went to the terminal in La Madrugada to pick them up to go home and bed.  

Friday
The elders got a call to go to Bahia Blanca and they just needed my comp and the zone leader so we had divisions again! 3 days back to back"! Crazy …but we had a lot of fun and we went contacting all day again, so I don’t really have much to say on these days.  Our comps came home really early in the morning around 3 am, we walked to the bus station again then we walked home and went to bed.   

Saturday
We were finally back with our normal companionship and we were working in the streets.  I know oh too well and we went contacting and tried to pass by the appointments we made earlier in the week and we had a few great lessons.  We also go to eat with a member and it was super fun! Nice to have something besides eggs and rice!

Sunday
We had fast and testimony meeting and it was such a treat.   So many kids bore there testimonies and it was incredible.   I loved every minute of it! Then we taught a class and then we taught priesthood.  We taught about the  first vision so they asked us to share a 10 min testimony about what it meant to use.  Then we came home and we saved up and both bought cereal to have a special Sunday dinner! It was so yummy.  

Be grateful and have a fun week.
Love Elder Vance
