El Selado

Well I have a little bit to get you caught up on.

Last Saturday I went to the Iguana Park to try and get a good photo of the iguanas climbing on me. But alas we go there just after they finished eating and so we got no photo. I was kinda bummed but it was all good.

Then on Sunday i was able to go do interviews in the other wards. I had served in Prosperina and got to see lots of converts and members and it was great. I even got a picture with a convert and his certificate of getting the Aaronic priesthood.
Then on Wednesday I went and did splits with Elder Serrano the Zone leader and I really enjoyed it. We had to go to Playas to do some interviews and we had two 2 hours bus rides to sit and talk. He is going to come to the US to play football (American) and try and be a doctor. He's super great and speaks English so I said he can crash at my house if he wants.
Then on Thursday, the assistant walked into my room as I studied and he told me that I was getting transferred in the afternoon. So I had to go and get everything ready and then I went to the office. We had a last lunch and President Dennis thanked me for all the work I've done. He was great. And then I went to the Terminal. But I actually just went to find my comp because he is here in Guayaquil. So there I met up with Elder Leiva from Chile. He's super great and I'm excited to work with him. We are Zone Leaders in El Salado. It's a zone that is picking up speed and has lots of potential. I'm super excited to see what we can do.
Today I went to the Iguana Park again cause Elder Leiva didn't know about it. I did get a good photo of one getting on me and it was cool. But I'm really pretty excited to see what I can do in the future here in this zone.
PS: the people here in this sector are crazy but in a funny way. The women are crazy. They try and give me their phone numbers and they say things as I walk by. So great confidence boost right? Either way it's a great story.

Good Week

Sat June 28

This week we had a few things happen.
We had a group of missionaries finish their mission and go home- including the Assistant and the Materials Secretary. So the office is different now. But that's fun to have new people too.
We also had the Financial Secretary and the old Materials Secretary get a cool baptism. Everyone in the office went with investigators to support them.
We also enjoyed seeing the lighthouse the other day. It's a big tourist spot and I had never been so we went by the other day.
Also I got my package with the game day shirt from Utah State- that was a surprise. I was pretty happy about that.
We had to go on a trip to Playas to do an audit. But it was cool. 2 hours there. 2 hours back and 3 hours in the office to look through names. Fun stuff right?
Also we had an Elder go home for a bit for medical junk but he is excited to come back soon. Because of that I got back to the house at 6:30 am today after leaving the house at 4:30 am to take care of it. So running on little sleep.
The World cup has a huge effect still even though Ecuador is out. But it will be cool to see who wins. I say Holland (Netherlands) or Columbia.
