So this week ahs been really productive. We have gotten a lot more new investigators and we have been working a lot with people that have been inactive for a long time. I feel that all of this will be really successful in the end. So far, we dont have any dates for baptism. Op even goals. We have people who know they are going to get baptized, the only question is when things are going to fix themselves to allow them to do it. But yeah, I have a lot of hope for the people that we are teaching right now. I hope I get to stay in this area for more than 6 months to see what eventually happens with them but who knows. Ill talk to the president. But yeah. We had 164 people in sacrament meeting this week, tehy said it was some kind of ward record haha. A year ago they only had like 90. So, things are well. Only 2 investigators were able to come to church. This week was rough with jobs, chores to do, etc. All of them do their stuff on sundays. It´s frustrating. But yeah. Nothing really awesome is going on here. My companion is learning more spanish, trying to talk more too, so were getting there. The area is still good. Weve been breaking a ton of new ground here. Every day its like, ¨Wow, Ive never been here before, and this town keeps going and going up the mountain.¨ With my old comp we only stayed in a small area around the chapel with the same people. I dont like that. I think thats maybe why I have holes in my shoes. We walk a toooon now. And our area is ginormous. But yeah. We are going in to San Jose today to pick up the residency of my comp. Nothing really new or exciting this week. Hope all is well.
