This week has been great! On Saturday, we went to a wedding with the family that we live with. Sunday, we were able to attend two different devotionals for two stakes. In one of the stakes, we had a lot of people come. It took a while, but all of the stakes are now going to have Self-Reliance classes going on. something that we have struggled with a little bit is trying to get information from our gerente. We feel a little alone here and he hasn't given us much to work on. Yesterday, we talked to a specialist from sacaba and she told us that she is starting to get frustrated with her calling because the gerente doesn't help her know what she needs to work on and how to train. She doesn't feel prepared. She feels like she ends up going onto the church website to just figure things out on her own. We have kind of felt the same way here. I think, though, that because of that, we have learned so much more and come to be more self-reliant in our internship.
We haven't been able to do too many cultural things this week. We have just spent a lot of time with the youth here. We went to an institute party, we had the wedding and we go out to get food with friends. We are really having a great time. I will be sad to go, but I am also really excited to get back to my life and my family and friends.
