This past week was really good.
First, last p-day we found a really
good BBQ place. It cost 6000 pesos for soup, salad, steak, rice, spaghetti and
a drink. So…basically 3 dollars for all of that, what a deal!
Second, this week was our Christmas
dinner with President Pitarch. All the missionaries in the eje Caftero traveled
to Pereira for the dinner. There were about 80 missionaries. We had a talent
show and a conference to start us off. Then to finish off the night we went to
a place called Leñon and Parrilla. It is an Argentine steak house. I got the
Churrasco. It is basically just a big chunk of meat. They also gave us some
really good mango juice. During the dinner we did a gift exchange. I gave an
artisan bag and a bracelet with the letters MCM (Mission Colombia Medellin).
And in return I got a vacuum Flask. I consider that a good exchange. I felt bad
for some of the other missionaries that gave good gifts but received crappy
ones. While we were in Pereira we stayed
in a hotel and it was pretty cool. The president’s gift was a scripture
case for my Preach my Gospel.
Lastly, this past week I completed 9 months in the mission. Isn't that crazy?
That is basically all for me.
I love you so much mom.
Love,
Elder Rucker
