Week 56 - Leaving Siquirres

Siquirres District

Hey guys!

Well it's been fun to be in Siquirres again, but, once again, I'm leaving. It was kinda rough to hear, with Christmas coming right up, but I know wherever I'm going, the Lord has a plan for me. They haven't told me where I'm going yet because for changes, they tell us if we have changes or not on Sunday and thenon Wednesday, we have a big meeting with everyone that has changes and President tells us where we're headed and who our new companion is. I have today and tomorrow to pack and say goodbye to everyone I can and then Wednesday morning, I'll take off. Maybe I'll stay out of Siquirres for more than one transfer this time haha but who knows. 

This week was pretty great though. On Sunday, the dad of one of the families we're planning baptizing in December finally came to church and they all seem super excited. It was a total surprise because he had been telling us all week that he wasn't going to be able to come, but all of the sudden showed up with all the family. 

Also, like last week, I had to climb through the window again haha we did a service project on Saturdayand at some point the keys fell out of my pocket and they extra keys we had were trapped inside the house. We're getting pretty good at breaking into the house though because it took a lot less time than the first time haha

On Saturday we did a service project with the ward. We went to a retirement home to go spend time with the old people there and help clean up the place a little. It was a really good experience because most of them were really happy to see us and talk to us. There were a few old men that didn't seem to understand the concept of clothing though haha but it was a good chance to check out dad's future home.

Today we played soccer for the last time with all the zone and we finally beat Limon! We celebrated by going to the first and only fast food restaurant in Siquirres that just opened on Saturday. Just in time for me to leave haha I watched them building it for almost 10 months and only got to eat there once haha

But that's about it, loving life out here. Hope you guys are all doing great! Love you a ton!
