Mathematically Impossible

This week was honestly... quite long. Its crazy how the weeks are all running together. 


Only 3 big things happened this week, in my opinion.

1. Exchange. Again
Another double gringo exchange! And not in my area! The exchange was pretty awesome, except we had walked like 3 miles by 4, so my feet were killing me.
My Spanish popped off also, so that was awesome. We had a crazy lesson that went quite literally every where, from plan of salvation to... mission rules? Like what? Also I was talking the entire time?! Like WHAT?!?!? 
Next day when exchanges are supposed to end, we get a call from our flustered companions asking where we are, they are at a service and need our help.
We suit up and head over. The service is moving a large dresser upstairs. Only problem. A dresser is to long to get out of the door (a wall was built to close to the door to let it out). I measure and declared it 
"Mathematically impossible". The brother helping laughs and commences to break the wall holding the door. Peruvian math is different than American math I guess 😅

2. Interviews with Prez!
My Presidente Misión is so awesome. We were cracking jokes and it was honestly so cool. But he is also serious when he needs to be, and he's full of advice its awesome. 

3. Multi-Zona P-day!
Currently in Ica Perú as I write this for Multi-Zona, which seems pretty awesome. Just finished a Zone Soccer tournament, where I got kicked in the head with a soccer ball. Again. Also Chincha lost, so thats cool. 

I think I'm gonna tie the spiritual thought in with the title of this email. There have been many times where I've said "This is impossible." And yet, one of my favorite missionary sayings is that all things are possible through Christ. He suffered infinitely in a very finite amount of time. Turn to him and he will help you achieve the "Impossible".

1. Pizza hut!
2. Ah yes, a dung beetle
3. Comps!
4. An average selfie
5. Hands after building a floor
6. Forgot to mention a lady wanted us to clear a whole bunch of dirt for a concrete floor. Needless to say it was soooooo fun! (And painful. Previous pic for reference)
