Ok, so something crazy happened yesterday!!!!! It honestly was insane.
So we were heading out yesterday around 4 pm
with a member to visit an investigator. ( normal Sunday) And while we
were waiting outside the door of the investigator to go in 5 drunks
came running around the corner,
and 3 of them were following the first 2. So at first it was kind of
normal. drunks running every where. BUT THEN they started
fighting!!!!!!2 guys started kicking and punching one of the 2 guys being followed!!!!YA and not like drunk fighting I mean the guy was on the ground and they were literally jumping on his head!! ya and then one of the other 3 stabbed the other guy being followed!!!!
So I was like wow we need to get inside now, and i started heading into
the house of the investigator, and the member with us started shouting
POLICE!!!! I was like " WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!?!" so
the member started pulling out his cellphone and he called the
serenazgo and in the process of all this the drunks were stealing the
shoes and the money of the guy on the ground almost dead, and a whole bunch of people were in the street now.Ya but the member kept shouting POLICE!!!!! so after a few minutes the drunks started coming for us!!!! I was oh my!!!! And the member was like " op ya everyone inside, inside now!!!" and
in literally less than 10 seconds a whole bunch of strangers were
inside the house of our investigator (including a really patient
pitbull), and we were watching from the door, and the three drunks ran away and
so we all stepped out onto the street to see what was going on with the
2 inured guys and the first one was passed out on the ground for a
good 5 minutes and then the other came over and sat like 5 feet away from us with his intestines falling out of his side!!!! ( first thought that came to my mind was that "I will never be a nurse") Ya then after the 5 minutes the other guy stood up and walked away!!!!
he had so much blood running down his face and leaving his side. ( my
thought this time, " definitely not gonna be a nurse") It was
horrible!!!! IT honestly felt like I was one of the back ground people in
a action movie!!!
NOW why am I sharing this with you guys???? First, I can testify that
God protects his missionaries!!! We almost went to this visit without a
member, and if the member hadn't been there well something worse could
have happened! Two, don't worry the two injured guys were both taken to
the hospital.and Three, DON'T DRINK!!! things like this happen and well its not healthy! (
water is healthier!) And Four, I don't know how (it was totally the
spirit) but through all of this I was calm, there were little girls
crying and I was just like, well I cant help the injured drunks but I
can calm the screaming children!
BUT this is not my only experience with drunks this week. WAIT WHAT?!?!? yup that's right I am in the 2nd city of Peru that is mostly known for its drunks.
But don't worry I am totally safe! Now what is my other experience?Well, We were in a visit inside a little store with an investigator and well
a drunk entered in to buy a cigarette, and after examining him for one
minute He wasn't drunk enough to do damage, but he was drunk enough to
play a joke. hehehehe ( sorry mom) so
he was talking with us and asking us if we had tried a typical food
here in Peru and we were both like no... And then he asked my comp, you
are from Peru right and she was like no???? then he said oh ....
China????
( my comp is from Bolivia!) jajaja ya I couldn't hold it in anymore and I
just started laughing, so then he asked me are you from?? Canada???
Now I wasn't about to tell him where I was from, so close to Cajamarca
there is a province called Celendin and the people there are known as
shalikas and the people from there look like gringos. So I told the
drunk " No I'm from Celendin!" and he could not believe us! It was so
funny he started talking about how he studied with the Jehovah's
witnesses for 2 years and how he was the devils lawyer and then right
before he left he asked us " are you sure she's not from a different
country??? She looks American" and we just replied no " I'm shalika!!!"
and told him that I was from celendin! IT was hilarious and I honestly
laughed so hard after and thankfully he left really fast!
jajajajajajaja.
Honestly the adventures of the
mission have changed my life! I did not share this with y'all to scare
you all, but to give y'all a little action!!!! The mission is the
best!!!! the picture below is a foto my comp. took between lessons. Yes
they are drunks and it was just too funny. Reminded me of a phrase "
the Biggest enemies become best friends when they are drunk" (I saw
these 2 guys arguing 2 days before this picture jajjaja)
Well I hope you all have a great week and don't forget to just trust God!!!!!!
Love you all!!!!
Love Hermana McNamara
