This last week for us was an interesting one, my companion had Dengue hace 2 weeks and now i have it...its not fun! I have a rash all over my body and am in a lot of pain but I'm sucking it up and powering through it. We had a family come to sacrament meeting yesterday and in the Gospel Principles class we talked about Eternal Families and wow that was a powerful class, the sister started to cry...i think they might be coming more often now. We are working hard and doing as much as we can being really weak with Dengue but its all working out, God is making up for what we are not able to do. Our house is full of mosquito's, its a breeding ground, and were trying to change but in my area there are no other houses to change to so we will see what President allows us to do.

This companion is the toughest i have had so far and i for sure am learning patience. All i am able to do is try to think positive and serve him. Serving someone without anyone asking and not expecting a thank you back is really tough but it does help us learn to love all and it sure is helping me. We don't have much in common but I'm doing my best to help our companionship. So something cool that i found out is that as of 3 months ago the government hasn't been paying the police...ya I'm in the most dangerous country in the world without any police....they are all protesting and its a little nerve racking sometimes but i know I'm protected as long as I'm doing what i need to be doing. 

This ´last week was a good one for us, my companion that i was training got changed...he just finished his training. I am now with Elder Alameda from Mexico. He has two months less than me in the mission so that's pretty cool but i will have to learn a lot of patience with him. I have really learned to bite my tongue and just let things go and just follow after him to clean up his messes but its ok, its preparing me for kids ha we have been working hard and have 4 baptismal dates for this upcoming month and possible two more but we will see. The work is really hard here and people are really full of apostasy, that's what makes it tough but it played right it can be won! It was hard to work this last week because my comp has dengue so he has no energy to work...a lot of elders have been in the hospital for dengue...its really bad here now. 

I really enjoyed reading your talk, i have had a pretty tough life but Ive come to realize a lot of people have way tougher lives...I've seen a lot of life changing things these past couple weeks that have been hard to see and wont leave my mind but maybe that's a good thing. 

Anyways i hope you have a good week and all goes well for you.
