Week 9 in Ecuador

I just started my black year so thats pretty cool. I dont have any baptisms coming up because everyone was gone for the holidays and it was hard to find people. For new years we studied our scriptures and read talks. We woke up at almost 12 because it was getting super loud and crazy and we looked out the window and everyone was burning stuff..... we dont even live on a main street and it got crazy. My companion is doing great and we are having lots of fun. Today we went to one of the volcanoes that people live inside of which was awesome. No gross food this week gladly.  I am in charge of one of the talks. Topic is missionary work.  I do talking if i understand what people are saying or need to hear. The people here are awesome. Its cool to see that the less they have the more they want to give.

Week 6 in Ecuador

We wear our suites Sundays and days we see President so not too much. The lady that cuts our hair is a member so she knows the mission rules. Below are pictures of more recent converts and some native members.  We cant email each other (Other missionary friends in Ecuador) in the mission but i saw him Friday for verifications and he is doing a lot better. I got another companion today and he is another american which is awesome. I did get the packages and set the tree on top of our stacks of scriptures. I am doing great here. Nothing too new is going on. Our dinner with president is next Monday so i have p day on Tuesday next week.  Our Font we baptize people in is pretty gross and the water turns green.
