this week went by fast. I guess that's what happens when you're enjoying yourself! Yeah so I got a new companion, his name is Elder Lescano, de Argentina. He's very quiet and timid. I'm hoping it's just because he doesn't know me or anyone else. The pics that iIsent are of me and him, today. It's kinda rough being comp. mayor, but I guess it's alright haha cause i get to make all the decisions ;) nahh. I told him the day that he came here that this is the work of both of us together and his opinion and values are just as much as mine.

As for investigators, we're working with two children, one boy (Carlos) of 11 años and a girl of 15 (Lucerito). She likes the diminutive on her name cause she looks like shes 18. I was kinda surprised when she said that she was 15. Anyways, how we met her is that one day we were walking and she came up to us and asked what we do, so naturally we explained it and she went to the church. She lives with her mom who is the boss at the bar, which is their house too. It was kinda interesting to teach with all the people that are yelling and screaming, but she understood. Now all we need is permission from her mom ;) Also we're working with another family that we put a date for this 29th and they accepted, well see about that, she likes to listen more that she likes to act. but she has gone to the church too, so they are progressing.
Also, we ran into a guy that has listened to the missionaries before, and we put a date with him also for the 29th, but it's hard to find him, we have to help him go to the church this Sunday. He lives in another city but is here on sabado and domingo. He's a great guy. Yeah, so that's the progress in the mission that we're having here. The spanish is definitely getting easier haha, and that's not a joke, but there's still one guy named Elder Sly--he has 19 meses in the mission. that speaks dang good, I gotta say, perfect Spanish, but I'm catchin up haha. So that's the story with me this week, it's all been good here. Love you all so much, and thanks for all that you guys do!!!
