Wow, what a rainy and wet week it has been. We have had rain all
week and today it is still raining really hard. The attendance in church went
down a lot with so much rain and some of the streets have flooded. I have worn my rain gear all the time this week
and have been wet but luckily I haven't gotten sick.
We had our last Zone conference with President Rappleye and
because we are in Osorno, we did it in the mission home so it was more
personal. I am also the only one ending the mission in my zone so I got to
share my testimony with everyone and luckily I only cried a little bit. I feel sad with every moment I realize how more and more the end is coming very close.
We spent some time this week with an elder that had some
really bad flea bites and one of the bites got infected and his foot swelled up. He ended up in the hospital for about 5 days. We took turns taking care of him
and being his companion. That took a little time away from our proselyting
schedule but it was worth it.
So, funny story, our mamita has a 19 year old son with down
syndrome and another son in the mission in Peru that turned 20 yesterday, so
the son that has down syndrome named Memo always bares his testimony in church
and yesterday was no different. He gets up and starts singing happy birthday at the pulpit and then bore his testimony, it was so funny and I was cracking up! After that, the 2nd counselor got up and talked about how wrong
abortion was and that was his testimony. It was amazing how the spirit
completely left when he started but not when Memo sang happy birthday... it made my day.
Well, I look forward to seeing everyone in two short weeks and am
excited for it. I hope everyone is having a great time, thanks for the
birthday wishes.
Love, Jentry
Rain, Rain go away!
