This
week was ballin. I am currently a little sick right now, and my comp is
still sick...he has been pretty messed up for like a month, but they
finally got him some meds that actually help him.
This
week was full of trainings and finding. We had Zone Conferences on
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, in Los Chillos, Turubamba, and La
Colón. They all went super well! We also ate pizza in all three. So far,
3/3, let´s see if we can beat last Zone Conference´s 6/8. Haha! We are
training for 1.5 hours on the Area Book, we are getting a little
creative and so far all the trainings/workshops have gone super well! I
have also gotten to see some of my best friends, so that is always a
plus.
Oh yeah, the aftershock earthquakes are still going hard. This week there was one at 3am,
which was a pretty big/long one. We woke up and ran into the kitchen to
wait until it stopped. Although it wasnt as big as the first one (first
of like 450 haha) last month, being up on the 6th floor and sleeping
with 3 big loud metal bunk beds in our room made it seem WAY stronger
than the first. And then that same day during our training there was
another one, right before noon.
It was also a small one, but big enough to make the church building
shake a squeak, so we went to the bball court for a minute until it
stopped. It is always a little scary because they say a big quake is due
here in Quito, so every time there is a little one you just think to
yourself ´´alrighty...is this the ´´Quito Quake´´?!´´. I love this
country! I´d rather worry about earthquakes than Volcanoes like we did
last summer. EPIC.
On Satuday we had a great
baptismal service. F is a awesome, humble 18 year old who has
great desires to continue strong in the church and serve a mission! His
girlfriend is a member, so she definitely helping in the
fellowship/conversion process. ;)
This week is
going to be crazy. Monday evening we leave Quito, and then will be in
Santo Domingo on Tuesday for Zone Conf, Ambato on Wednesday for Zone
Conf, Thursday some exchanges in Baños or Guaranda, and then Friday Zone
Conf in Riobamba. President´s son, daughter in law, and 3 grandsons are
here, so we will be bussing it like old times! Gonna be one heck of a
week. Especially if we are both still sick. But at this point, there
isn´t any time to hold back anything we got! I´m stoked.
Well, love you all! Have a great week!
