Hola familia and friends, whats up? This week was an alright week. We are experiencing a shortage on investigators right now but we are hoping for new guys pretty soon. We still have one family but that's about it. This time of the year is rough over here because there are lots of parties and it takes a lot of people away. The district is doing good. We are still having quite a bit of success and the month of May is looking super good for us so I might get to go with a bang! We had a funny experience this week. We were contacting people in the street and we passed by a family of three and they rejected us super hard. In my sector they do that, so we are used to it. Well about two hours after we were headed with a member to contact a reference we had received. We get to walking and we turn up the same street where the family of 3 rejected us, there aren't many houses in my sector so I began to wonder. I asked my companion, " What was the guys name that rejected us?" He replied,"Marcos Castañeda." So I ask the member what is the name of the reference, he says"Marcos Castañeda." I really began to sweat when he said that so I asked where he lived, and the member pointed at the exact house we'd contacted 2 hours earlier. I started thinking oh crap, you gotta be joking me. My companion about had a heart attack. Well we get to the door and the guy comes out, sees us, and his face just said " Didn't I tell these I guys I didn't want to listen two hours ago,? My companion and I, with smiles, were just sittin there while he and the member talked in Kichwa for awhile. Well after a few minutes he said we could share something so we did, and after he said we could go back at anytime so we will see what happens. It was an awkward experience but it ended alright so we will just have to see. We are hoping for some success pretty soon. Keep praying for us. I love you guys and I'll talk to ya next week.
