Hola familia and friends.
Well you may have heard already but the Cotopaxi volcano has had several explosions this last week. We can see the volcano and we saw how dark everything was that day but the only effect we really had was ashfall for about 5 minutes. We really aren't that close but we can still see everything haha. It's awesome. Also this week there were some government protests in my sector, so we had to avoid that. A lot of people are not happy with the government here. Thus there have been some pretty strong protests. We actually were told to be careful with that and buy water and stuff but ya, no pasa nada. We have three people with a baptismal date and they all went to church yesterday so that is cool! We are working hard when we can and the Zone had a decent week. We improved, but we could still reach a lot higher, so we are working with that. My sector is pretty small. Its kind of nice, the people are cool. There is one guy that makes super good barbecue wings. I was impressed. I'm in one of the best wards in the entire country so the people are legit. Plus a bunch of them are fluent in English. Actually two members grew up in Utah. They played football and everything. They are pretty much gringos, just from Ecuador haha. That is cool that the baby got here! I can't believe that there are three that I haven't met haha. It's nuts. Well I just hope that everything is going well and that everyone is doing well. I really hope everyone is reading the BofM everyday. There is no reason you shouldn't be so ya. Read it Love it Live it and everything will go well. I love you guys a lot and I'll see you next week.
