This week has been just normal, getting to know members and investigators in the area. . The area is a little dangerous, but haven’t found anything bad yet, I still have not been robbed ha! It’s getting colder, I love it. Makes me want to play Christmas music! So I’ve been listening to Christmas music all week. Our apartment is real bad. It’s really dirty and the neighbors always fight and yell and blast music so we are now looking for a new place to stay. So i'll be moving in a bit.

We are meeting great people. Our area is far from our chapel and apartment. We have to take a bus every day to get to our area. We have lots of people to teach but lots of people aren't married and live coupled up with kids and all and so we have to get them married before we can baptize them, so that’s the biggest struggle is getting people married. We are teaching this guy of about 26 years named Augusto, his wife is a member but they are not married and they have a little boy. Way cool family, they came to church, but they just gotta get married so he can be baptized! We love them and are doing all we can to help them! This area is good. I love my new comp! :) I guess I’ll just make this area my new home again like I did in Villa Maria! I love this work and I know it’s a true work!
