haha So this week we had another great service project, and in the typical missionary fashion took on a project that was too big for us and also that we didn't really know how to do. We replaced a door and a door frame. Normally that would be pretty easy, except here the doors are cemented in when the house is built, so that made it a lot more difficult. We had a member come help us but it still took 7 hours haha. It's amazing how long simple projects take when you don't have the right tools. This project was for an investigator, whose dad died last week after we gave him a blessing. We have lots of great investigators right now who only need to be married! its coming along great though. have a great week everyone and talk to you later!

To Dad: sounds crazy dad, praying for you every day and the family and everything. I'm glad the surgery went alright. It was pretty good week since I was kinda in charge of all our visits and everything as part of the training . It was hard but good prep for when my comp leaves. Today our bus got pulled over by the military police, they made everyone get out and searched us. We actually were very lucky and the guy just passed over us since were missionaries, which was a huge blessing since my comp didn't have his license or residency and would have been held overnight if they checked him. They collected the licences of all the men, checked the numbers and then let us go. It was scary but turned out ok. My comp told me that for every missionary that doesn't have residency yet, the church pays 50 dollars a day. That's pretty crazy, since we don't get residency until a year of being here. But the Lord is watching over us for sure! Love you dad!
