Hey Family!
It felt like this week was pretty short since we had p-day on Wednesday instead of Monday. It wasn't the best week this week but it wasn't the worst. We had a ton of cancellations which wasn't too fun, but we had a lot of other good stuff happen!
At the beginning of the week I went on exchanges with Elder Galo in his area. This is his first transfer, so it was kinda fun to be with a brand new missionary for the day. He speaks Spanish fluently so we spoke purely Spanish the whole day, which was good. He's from New York too, so it was the first time I got to be with another East Coaster (whoop!) We had two dinners and after the second one I seriously thought I was gonna throw up which was a first, but i got over it pretty quick. Plus dinner was delicious, so it made it worth it. At the end of the night we visited a family that hadn't been in our plans for the day at all. They were actually a family that I had visited before on a previous exchange. Well it turned out that the mom had gotten in an accident at work and was in pretty bad condition. We ended up being in the right place at the right time to be able to give her a blessing. And, it was cool because the member that we brought didn't have to work the next day and she needed a ride to the hospital but her husband had to work! So it was a miracle.
We also went on exchanges with Elder Spilsbury and Elder Gonzalez. I brought Gonzalez to our area. It was a ton of fun. He speaks some wicked Spanish (he's from Mexico) and he taught me a bunch of new words. It was fun stuff. We've still been playing a ton of soccer with the zone and still been going to the gym every morning with two other elders that live in our complex.
We have a busy week planned ahead, so hopefully it goes well!
Love you all!
