Carnaval!

(P-Day was on Wednesday this week due to Carnaval!)

A long weeeek.

Well, we have been in the house for the last 4 days because there was a really big holiday here in Ecuador called Carnaval!  Really it's just a 4 day water fight here in the country, so yeah it was a little sketchy for us to leave our apartment and get hit by water haha! 

However, we did have some really cool events take place this last week!  Well on Sunday, we were just chilling in church and the Branch President asked us if we were teaching this kid who he pointed out to us and we told him no because we legit just thought he was a less active member or already a baptized member.  So we went up to him on Sunday during church and yes, it turned out that he isn't a member and that he's been coming to church every week since around Christmas!  We felt so dumb!  So yeah, we set a date with him and if all goes right tonight we should teach him all the rest of the lessons and he should be baptized this Friday night hahah!  Yeah that's so awesome! Basically, if everything all works out we should have 3 baptisms this week and that would be so dope! 

The work here is picking up and all is well! This upcoming week is transfers and I think my companion is leaving probably, so that should be interesting to see who comes to live with me, but who knows!?

Shout out to my boy Drew Jensen and Jax Kaufusi!  Give them some love from me in Utah!  They are HOME!!!! ESO!!

Gracias por todo!

Lol funny thing...a member here gave us a movie to watch during our week in our apartment. She told us it changed her life, so we watched it and it was so good!  It's called Gifted Hands.  It really inspired me to pick up a book and read!  haha all is well! 

In honor of Elder Jensen returning home, we ate at an Argentine steak house!

Ecu-Argentina!  It's kind of like Argentina, but in Ecuador!

A little bit of Ecuador for you all
