Hey ya’ll what’s up?
This week was pretty good. I finally got transferred and now am in Santa Rosa. It’s coastal so it’s pretty hot.
Anyway, last week was a great week to end in Yantzaza. We ended with the baptisms of Maholy, Junior, Graciela and Anahi. The night before I called the place where we do the baptisms and he said they were busy so we scrambled to find another place and ended up doing the baptisms in the river. It actually turned out super nice. The next day we confirmed them members of the church and then I shared my final testimony to the small branch of Yantzaza. After the meeting we took some pictures and I said some of my final goodbyes and that was it.
The next day we spent all day saying goodbye. It was kinda sad. I had been there a little more then 6 months so it was tough to say goodbye to all the friends we had made. We then hopped on a bus and went to Loja.
I spent a whole day on a bus, about 6 hours and then finally got to Santa Rosa. I’m in Arenillas with Elder Chamberlain from Washington. We are pretty much opening a new area so it’s kinda crazy right now.
That’s it for this crazy week. Thanks for all the prayers. Love ya’ll!
