I think Heavenly Father has a really great sense of humor.
He has to. Earlier this week we were walking down the street, just like we
always do. It was a sunny day, we were having a good time even though it we
hadn´t had lots of sucess that morning. So i´m just walking along and then feel
something on my shoulder. I reach up to brush it off, assuming its a leaf since
there are lots of trees on this street... and feel something wet.
Horrifed, I look at my hand. I have bird poop on my fingers.
I was pooped on. POOPED ON BY A BIRD. What are the chances right? That I would
walk under the tree at that exact moment. Even a split seconds difference and
the bird would have missed me.
I honestly couldn´t believe my eyes for a second. I had to
have my comp check my shoulder. Yup. Bird poop.
So, since we had nothing set for the next 40 minutes, we
went to Burger King´s bathroom and cleaned off my shirt. Thankfully it came out
all the way. We were laughing the whole time. We were kind of incredulous about
the whole thing.
That´s my funny story of the week. Kind of the wierdest
thing ever.
We had a tri-zone conference this week that was super fun! I
got to see my first comp, Hna Brown one last time. She´s going home in a few
months so we probably won´t see each other again soon. And Elder Reynolds who I
haven´t seen since my first transfer here! He was in my MTC district and we
ewre pretty good friends. It was super fun to see them. I´ve made so many
amazing friends here in the mission, I love it.
As far as work goes this week... we´re still searching.
Having our own little safari, looking for people who are ready to listen to the
gospel. We worked hard this week, but our faith is still being tested.
Refiners fire, right? I´m a lot more okay with it than I was at first.
Because I know I´m doing my part, we just have to show our faith. And wait for
the Lord to finish preparing this next person.
Also, transfers. Hna Bangerter is leaving for Málaga (the
golden valley of the mission. I´m excited for her!) And I am getting a new
comp. She´s from Peru but has lived in Spain most of her life, Hna Cerna.
Everyone that knows her says she is really nice, so I¨m excited. It´s my first
native companion so I´m kind of nervous for that part, but I¨m sure she´ll be
great. And my spanish will get the boost I´ve been needing! Just no more movie
refrences for a while. Two elders from the district are leaving too, so that´ll
be sad. But one of the new Zone Leaders was in my first district in Granada, so
I¨m super excited to see him! Elder JOhnson if you remember me talking about
him at all. So it´ll still be fun.
Loves,
Hna Woolley
