As for me my new area is good, it’s dead. Before we got here the missionaries had emergency changes, well they got sent home so they were doing bad things and not working so we had nothing. Which means we had to start over with no new investigators or anything. Were in a Branch that is terrible ha they say they want to be a ward so bad but they don’t help the missionary work at all so were going to machete them this Sunday…machete with love that is. The thing is that the members don’t understand their role, they are supposed to find and we teach. It is the best way to baptize. My comp is ok, he annoys me a lot but I’m patient and just let it go. I’m better now at going with the flow actually I’m the bomb at it and maybe am too good with it but I’m learning lots. Its odd were being so obedient and working hard and having no success! But the Lord is teaching us and testing us and I know at the end of all trials are blessings we were holding it out.

Things are hot here in the South, way hot especially since I got transferred to another area. I am now in a place in the Orient or in other words way out in the middle of nowhere! It’s in the zone San Vicente it’s called Ilobasco. Its way hotter here than my last area, it’s like 2.5 hours from the capital sadly. I am now washing my own garments, by hand! Never in my life did I think I would be washing my clothes by hand, how convenient are washing machines? It really makes you grateful for them. It took me an hour and a half today to wash them and my arms are killing me, it’s a good workout. I have a new companion as well and he is from Guatemala. He is really odd and overly obedient, it’s hard to say there is such a thing but there is. He follows every rule and the rules that aren’t even there! So pray for me please. J Other than that not much is going on so I hope you have a good safe week. Know I love you and pray for you every prayer, that’s a lot in a day!

Love always,
Cole
