Hola familia! This week was awesome. Well kind of. First of all we had to move to a different house and that was a project considering we were living on the 5th floor of our old house. Now I don't know if any of you have ever taken a fridge down 5 floors, but it was not fun. Moving just about killed us but we mad it in, and our new house is awesome. It even has carpet which is amazing. The shower is really good, and it is just an awesome house. But I do love the carpet. That was the first win. Then with our investigator Jonathan Valdivieso. He is the one that went to the temple and came back and wanted to get baptized. He will be getting baptized this week and we are super excited for that reason. Also, we have another family that will be getting baptized in the future when they get married on the 31st of Decemeber. It's still far away but it's a success. As a zone, we had a fantastic week. We had 15 people with a date last week and that was about the average for many weeks before that. This week we shot up to 41! and 30 of those 41 have gone to church a lot so we are stoked for that. This week I had a pretty cool experience as well. I was on divisions with an Elder that is really struggling right now and he wants to go home but president refuses to send him until he completes his training. Well, he had a meeting with president and he told me that president had promised him in his interview that in that same week he'd be able to help somebody. He came to my sector on Thursday and he helped one of our recent converts out a lot and he was super excited. It was a cool experience. President Richardson is pretty much the man as well. I love my president so much. My companion and I are getting along very well and Life is good in the neighboorhood. An update on the Volcanos is that Cotopaxi is expected to have a full on blow the roof of the house eruption in less than 6 months and there is talk that it may have been the reason for the recent reactivation of the mega volcano Pululahua which is right on the border of my zone. But who knows what happened or what will happen. All I know is I don't want to be in Ecuador when all these volcanos erupt. It will be a baptism by fire haha. Quito is up the wrong creek right now. That's for sure haha. My week was pretty good. That's about all that happened and I'm doing good. I love you guys, I'll talk to ya later and see ya next week.
