Its almost Christmas already! Its crazy that I will get to talk to people at home and what not. I was hoping maybe Eli Luke and Braden could be there too because I really want to talk to them a little bit.
So this last week wasnt anything special haha sorry it´s hard to get super interesting stories every week. I do have one though. So we were doing contacts and yelling at people´s doors (we yell at doors because there are fences around every building here) and we found a super old lady. She is 78 and we had to sit right next to her and yell the whole lesson haha. It was funny when my comp yelled the prayer into her ear. So we taught her a couple lessons and then we showed up saturday. She got super mad for some reason and we didnt know why. She told us she got up at 4 AM and was waiting for us to pick her up for church. We had told her it was sunday morning but she didnt believe us and told us to leave haha. She was a little crazy so I dont think it would have gone anywhere anyways but she couldnt say our names and she called me Roberto and my comp Carlos.
We are going into the city today to find a place to print out pics so we can frame them and give them to the families we took pictures with. We were walking home the other night and some random non memeber family started talking to us and we asked if we could take pictures with them. They let us in and we took pics around their tree and then made an appointment to go back. It was super cool.
Thats about it this week. 2 Nephi 29 is your guy´s assignment for FHE this week. I was also reading in DyC the other day in section 3 and there is a scripture to Jose Smith about being called again to the work and I thought it was really cool. Anyways,can´t wait for Christmas!
Love Elder Peck
Oh and I forgot to say Elder Hendricksen is living with us now. Roth got transfered today and now the elder that mom blog stalked before the mission is living with me. I havent met him yet because Roth was still packing but I´ll see him later tonight.
