Well this week was interesting. We did a service project this week. Building a house. We got a bunch of sand and some concrete to make our own foundation. That is how they do it here. With a shovel and all by hand, no big cement trucks coming in. 20 buckets of sand and 20 buckets of little rocks to start this foundation. Then we carry a cement mixture over all in buckets. Pretty tough work. It's hard to explain, but somehow it works out. Then after that we went home to shower, to discover that the water was off again. So we dumped some buckets of water we had saved from when there it rained on ourselves just to try and get off the concrete. Luckily I have some old spice deodorant, so it's all good!! We had some amazing food also.
It was funny, right after the whole concrete thing one of our investigators asked us to help her move a stove. I was like, but I'm gonna die, but we are missionaries and we are doing service. So that is what we did. She wants to be baptized next month so that is great....
We have another baptism this month also.
Well changes were today and my new companion is from Columbia and is Elder De Leon. Elder Astin is off to my old sector the hottest place on Earth. Santo Domingo. I'm sad to see the old guy go. But at least he will be in my old stomping ground, seeing all my friends there. The kids, my homies. Here's the district before the split. Serious....
We saw President for the last time this week. He is great, he gave us temple recommend holders. I will miss him. Also had divisions this week, it's been very busy. Sorry I don't really have more to say. I'm just tired and busy....
Until next week Fam
Love Elder Rogers
