Applesauce and Chicken Hearts

Yeah you read that title right!

Luckily, I tried these things at two different times.

Each Tuesday morning, a little, old hermana and her hubby come at 7:30am to bring us their freshly cooked (yet very plain) Ecuadorian food. Usually pasta or fried chicken and white rice. That's the minimum, though.

Sometimes we get bread, eggs, juice, milk, chips, cake as well. Pretty much anything from her cocina haha. Well, she gave us 2 huge bags of tiny apples and none of us wanted to eat them nor throw them away. Soo, I used the blender and made us delicious homemade apple sauce-twice!

Directions:Cut. Blend. Add cinnamon and a little milk (almond). It was so good actually. Tasted totally store bought.

Last Thursday, we had a zone conference with all of the missionaries in Connecticut. It was really fun. My District Leader and I sang "Because I have been given" much to a piano piece someone in Sister Moss's old area in MA made up. Maybe I'll get the video to send home because it's beautiful.

At our new Portuguese investigators house, we ate tiny chicken hearts! It grossed me out a lot to think I was eating hearts but it was just like tiny, tender and chewy pieces of meat! And they flavored them well. Classic meal from Portugal apparently. Go try them everyone. 

S, our investigator from Spain is for sure getting baptized August 2nd! We had no baptismal dates for July, but August we have a couple-so here comes the Bridgeport flood. New members galore! Our goal is to have convert baptisms. Not just baptize to have baptism, but to baptize those who have truly gained a testimony for themselves.

However, this Friday we find out if I'm transferred or not..which could be possible. I've been in BPT for 5 1/2 months already so I think I'm out of here next Wednesday. TBA people!

For behold, this life is the time for men to prepare to meet God; yea, behold the day of this life is the day for men to perform their labors.

Keep abounding in good works and have a great week everyone. I love you all.
