It was International Week. I liked what they did in the Institute building decorating the halls with international flags, saying hi to everyone in a foreign language, singing hymns, praying, and sharing a scripture in a foreign language, etc. It was so fun!
Well, guess what? yes, I am a volunteer Math tutor. I remember always competing with my sister solving Math problems. I love learning and being good at it so I can help others to understand more the material and also it helps me to not forget what I learned. It is a win-to-win. My friends were like what? you are gonna do that and not get paid? I told them I was ok with that because I was on top of my classes and my schedule was flexible so I said, why not? it was a good day to make my day productive :) Also, it has benefits by tutoring, it helps me build my resume :)
What a surprise? I got for the weekend...

My Friend Jason S. was in Utah for a conference and he visited me. He helped me finding my first apartment in Provo when I was in Miami. Anyways, we had fun, we went grocery shopping, and because I was sick, he had to cook lol. I was telling him what to do and he did well! He had never made Aji de Gallina and he was trying to do the same thing like me that I learned from my mom, being very careful when cooking and keeping everything clean. We watched a movie, listened to bachata music, and wow we felt like if we were in Peru since I am from Peru and he served in Peru.
What a surprise? I got for the weekend...
I made Lomito Saltado by myself for first time and I loved it, they all loved it. It turned out pretty well :)
I finally went out with sister missionaries after a while. One of them was from Canada and the other one was from Brazil
I invited my second parents for dinner, Angelica (old roommate), and my new roommates so my second parents could meet them. At the end, they all showed up except for Rachel, Aubrey, and Janet...

who just got on the field 2 weeks ago when I met her. They were serving in the Spanish area of Orem. We met interesting people, but none of them really invited us to come in their house or share the message. That day, my testimony about prayer had grown even more. We prayed in the car, and I asked for a family to open their door to us, and let us share the message that we brought for them, and more. After we prayed, we knock the last door and nobody was there, I was feeling so sad for no having anyone to know and share the message with, suddenly, the whole family showed up and at the beginning they didn't want to listen and just be polite and greet us, then they invited us to come in to their house and introduce us to their kids. It was such a beautiful house and wonderful family, so happy. Then we started sharing about the plan of salvation because the lady was sad because her dad passed away. The Spirit was so strong that they were willing to listen and ask us any question and invited us to come back again. They were very opened to us. I really want them to make the commitment and get seal in the temple. I care about them, even though I just met them that day, but we all are kids of God and we want our family (everybody) to receive this blessings.
