My week

Hey everybody!!!

As always, thanks for taking the time to read my letters.

So this week was awesome. It was just super full of crazy stuff.

So the highlight was the baptism of Hermana Rosa!!!! It was so awesome. She's progressed a ton. Her mother and her son are both members, but she never wanted to join the church. While we worked with her, we just saw so many miracles in her life as she decided to go to church, read the Book of Mormon, and keep listening to the missionaries. She's changed her life in a matter of weeks, and it's been such a humbling experience to be a part of that.

The low light was quite interesting. I've had a small cavity that's been growing in one of my teeth, and it's been getting worse, so I decided it was probably time to get it checked out. I did, and it was pretty deep and pretty bad, so today I spent about an hour in the morning getting shots in the mouth, getting the cavity filled, and my tooth reconstructed. But it's a good thing that I did it now, because if I had postponed it more, it's likely I would have had to have gotten a root canal on it, so crisis averted. And now my teeth look pretty good!

Other highlight is that the wife of our convert, Mariano, works at a crepe restaurant, and they sell cherry coke there. Probably one of the only places here that offers it. So we stop by frequently and pick up cherry cokes. It's great.

So that's my funny story from this past week. This week should be a good one. We're gonna have a series of meetings that should be good, and some great hard missionary work.
