we had a really good week. It's been hard to work as much as we would like to, because it takes us an entire half hour to walk from our house to almost anywhere where we would want to work, but we're still doing it!!! We have found some really cool people in the last few weeks, and things are looking really good for us in Valle de Azapa. The first crazy thing that happened was that we had interviews with our new Mission President!! He did a conference with us and another zone and we all got to have 3 minute interviews so that he could get to know us a little bit. His wife is Hermana Meservy and he has four kids, two girls that are older and live in the states and Jaden (13) and Micah (10). We got to hang out with the kids while we waited for our interview and that was a load of fun. They are from Linden Utah, and this is their first mission serving together. President Meservy served his mission in Argentina and is the only one who speaks Spanish in their family. what a fun learning process.
Elder Diegolo and I did a lot of busywork this week, lots of digging and searching, and we had a great week even though we didn't have as much obvious success as we would want to. The fact that we are working hard, being DILIGENT and OBEDIENT is enough to satisfy me. We had a lot of study time this week and we studied a lot of deep doctrine topics. I've never found so much new things in the scriptures in one week, and I learned so much. Elder Diegoli was also with a fever on Friday night, and that was not good. He got over that, but the companion of our district leader Elder Patterson, Elder Quispe, had appendicitis. They took out his appendix on Saturday and was in the hospital until Monday morning. He's back in his house, but they will be home all week, thank goodness that he's gonna be fine. Elder Diegoli spoke in church, I had to teach in the second hour, and we had a lot of really good lessons with some people who seem to be progressing very much. I'm thankful to have Elder Diegoli here. He has changed so much since he arrived and has put himself really obedient, and we have seen so many blessings only through that. I love you all and I know that we receive blessings in accordance with our ability to be obedient to the laws and commandments of God. Thank you for all the birthday wishes, and if there is anything I can do for you guys, just let me know.
Have a great week!!
Elder McCurdy
